[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Finally some substantive conversation.  I do think the first league that takes that focus will prevail in the long run.  The other option is sort of what Gotham FC has done by enlisting a bunch of clubs from both leagues as feeders.  That forces the clubs to actually focus on development in theory.  Unlikely, but we can all wish right?[/quote]

Gotham FC have been recruiting players as young as 2010 to train with the club. It’s an interesting way of doing things, I wonder how much pressure they put on players to miss the college step so they can sign them. If they go to college they have to go the draft route and may not get the players they want and have identified. [/quote]

NWSL doesn’t have a draft.[/quote]
Some of the people that post here need to get with the times. Being a know it all about womens pro soccer and not knowing that NWSL got rid of the draft gets annoying quick.

Its like they're taking whatever knowledge they've learned watching college football and basketball and applying it to Soccer. Soccer is a different world because leagues like NWSL pull players internationally. Also internationally training and development for pro players is much different than America.[/quote] 
You just said a bunch of nothing... And yes the NWSL got rid of their draft, but it's not because they pull players internationally. The NBA and NHL pulls players internationally, and they have a draft.[/quote]
