[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stop using the word “steal”. Clubs should be happy if a player is moving from their club to a MLS club. It’s okay for players to leave. NCFC has plenty of players that go from their top ECNL team to MLS Next team in Charlotte FC, they are okay with it. It will be interesting if NCFC tries to go MLS Next as they were DA and they had DA as top team and ECNL as second team and Wake FC just got MLS Next. As a league, on the boys side MLS Next is stronger the issue is MLS academies only go up to u17[/quote]

Agreed on steal.  It's the same here with Arlington.  I think 10 kids are leaving for MLS academies (most, although not all, for DCU) next year.  That's a good thing for the club.

On your second point I'm pretty sure all the ex-DA clubs were offered MLS Next again this year, but in this region (VA and NC) none of them took it.  I think they are gambling that they can preserve their advantage as long as they stick together and keep the local ECNL league on a par with MLS Next.[/quote]

^  Oh - and most MLS academies don't stop at U17.  That's just DCU which runs the minimal program it can get away with and still comply with league rules.[/quote]
