[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]thought we were supposed to get more competitive, not less, when moving  to 'birth year'  :shock:

Glad we upended the entire youth soccer universe for 10 years to recruit for the national team based on birth year. [/quote]

It’s not that. It’s the US system of pay to play. It creates low level of play and players. Without the players who were developed in Europe the US has nothing. Any serious play needs to leave the US by 15/16. We can not develop players in the states.

With the size of the pool and the amount of money spent the US should be adding 2-3 quality players each year the national team. There is no competition at any of the positions. [/quote]

You can still pay to play and have good development.

We don’t develop well. I would even say you should leave at age 12 and go to Europe to get better!!![/quote]
Exactly. It's the same way kids in Europe come here to play basketball in high schools and colleges. The development, competition, and money making prospects are just much better.[/quote]

You obviously dont follow basketball much to realize kids in Europe don't need to come here.
Look at the results of international basketball championships and the number of NBA players and league MVP's from Europe [/quote]
