[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting that even the biggest GA fans here arguing for its inevitability base their argument on pressure from MLSN, not anything intrinsic about why GA itself is better. Pretty telling about what is driving this.[/quote] They involve/listen to the players. They are growing and increasing college placements YoY. They've allied with the top boys league to get more opportunities for their players. Must be doing something right.[/quote] aligning with the top boys league has nothing to do with getting their players more opportunities. GA showcases are on a serious decline as far as college coaching attendance and GA needs to fix this downward spiral. aligning with mlsnext will not get more girls college coaches to attend girls events. lmao[/quote] So playing at the Generation adidas Cup isn't an opportunity?[/quote] Not really. It’s a boys tournament with girl All star teams. For exposure, players are better off playing at girls events.[/quote] More digital ink likely spilled about that than most girls events. Anyway, that was year 1. Let's see how it evolves. Maybe they can invite an ECNL all-star team next time and then you'll call it the greatest thing ever.[/quote] ECNL already has an ”all star” type game at showcases. It’s kind of blah. Better to play with team and familiar teammates. GA’s biggest selling point is a boys event? [/quote] Wait a minute, weren't you just all about getting the most exposure? Now you're arguing it's better to play with your team or teammates? Which is it? Besides, what player wouldn't want to be on an all-star team, playing Euros? I imagine some recruiters/coaches will be seeing who stands out in those matches.[/quote] Are you guys still pretending those were real academy teams? The level was pretty low from them. It was probably their community or camp teams.[/quote] Ya that's what Acadamies want. Getting beat by American girls teams. Play to win or go away. Nobody wants to hear losers excuses. [/quote] sorry pal but the truth is those European teams were NOT their top players at their academies. its just a fact. but going forward, it was a good start and event and a good marketing event for them. ga does has something to work with and can make a good event for more teams in the US and Europe in the future if they put it together right. . ga has a long way to go overall. its silly to argue otherwise. ECNL is the dominate girls league. [/quote] Sorry pal you have no clue and are just making things up and spinning it into an ECNL commercial. Im sorry you werent invited.[/quote] considering my daughter played on the blue team and I was there, yeah the European players were NOT their top players. be smarter[/quote]
