[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mathis Albert is a far better talent than Cavan Sullivan, same age, but plays at Dortmund versus Philadelphia Union. I would gamble on Albert making it.  Sullivan, probably a decent MLS player.  Why you can't anoint a 14 year old that has finished puberty early. [/quote]

Your opinion is duly noted

[b]How does it change the fact Man City sees Sullivan's potential differently than you do and they are professionals?

No young player is guaranteed for adult success, but you bashing on Cavan and saying he won't make it is the Hater in you.[/quote]

1) He has dual citizenship and could have  went over at 16.  That means his family and Philly Union are more confident in their development system than Man City and they could not agreed on compensation.  That is what people smarter and more connected than me have told me.  Based on our US track record, you don’t stay in the states when you have the option to go ASAP.

2) Have you tracked the success of Man City’s last 10 signings?  Don’t confuse the name and success with their batting average.  I would not say they are playing money ball.

For the sanctity of everyone else in the states, I hope Cavan succeeds.  If he doesn’t, it is going to expose the US in a very unfavorable way, especially if Albert surpasses him developing in Germany.[/quote]
