[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Big difference is Barcelona and Man City take risks by trying to play forward passes and penetrate. Alexandria play a possession style like LVG’s Man United played a possession style... big difference.[/quote]

You have not watched the right Alexandria teams if that was your impression. [/quote]

I guess not, which age groups would you say? I’d love to be proven wrong. I like the intentions, but from a lot that I’ve seen (mostly Red teams in older age groups; the 02s are futsal monsters) their possession style becomes very stale. Still better than most because of the desire to build out of the back which is the best way to develop defenders.[/quote]

I have not seen the older groups, just the younger boys teams.  The 06 Reds won State Cup, the 07 Reds just won the East Region in nationals, and 08 Reds appear to be by far the best boys team in the DMV area in their age group, all playing a pretty dominant form of possession soccer and scoring plenty of goals with combination play.

08 Alexandria by far the best boys team in the DMV? Better than Arlington, VDA, Bethesda?[/quote]

I think they beat Arlington in all matches this season. I don’t know if they played Bethesda 08s but they are ranked higher (#11 in US). I don’t put much stock in that stuff. We shall see how they do this year. Some of their opponents may get a few players back from DAs this year so it ought to be a little more competitive for them this year. I don’t think there was a VDA 08 team. That would be PWSI Nike at that age. Always solid but not sure how they would fare against this team. Loudoun 08s will be really good. [/quote]
