[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's "official", Pulisic says you try harder when you go to Europe, and he's saying he's always had a winning mentality, that sounds like the mind of a hungry player.  Exactly the opposite of the rest of the USMNT that did see themselves playing in WC as a given.  Read the article.

And he stresses how much his Croatian passport made a difference in his prime developmental years.  Stressed how very important it was in the most critical developmental 16-18 year old window.[/quote]

Remember lots of people said the most important development stage pretty much ended before u16?[/quote]

What? Who has said anything like that? Are you thinking of the common statement that 8-12 are the key years for developing foot skills? That's certainly true, but it's only one piece of development. The tactical understanding you get from playing in a good European academy is one of the things that is almost impossible to replicate here.
