[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And I've been to academy facilities in over 20 countries...I have seen it with my own eyes.  [/quote]

If you're claiming you visited academies in 20 countries and all you saw were state of the art modern facilities and fields, you must also have a part time job selling sand in the dessert and the Brooklyn Bridge to tourists.

Or you were extremely selective in where you went (benefit of the doubt)[/quote]

NO.  I'm saying the facilities I've seen are better than DCUs.  Some good, some average some basic.  All better than what DCU has.  [/quote]

Maybe the rest of MLS academies should have facilities like the ones you saw, since none of them are sending players to top level professional clubs consistently. [/quote]

The rest of the MLS academies have equivalent facilities.  Some better, some worse.  Again, all better than DCU.  You can't win.   [/quote]

Academies are measured by
1. Number of players signed to Professional Ranks (premier divisions)
2. Revenue generated by sale of players to Professional Clubs

They could be training on pristine hybrid turf or concrete. Doesn't matter.[/quote]
