[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I'm reading is that a league adding more clubs doesn't really matter. [b]Also the concept of "dilution" only affects mega clubs ability to collect talent. [/b] The only person potentially affected is a guy that runs a recruiterment business and writes opeds about how inconvenienced thay are by going to more than one showcase.[/quote] GA and ECNL clubs are supposed to be mega clubs with the ability to collect talent. That's the whole point of having regional and national leagues [/quote] Ahh so all the DPL, ECRL, etc players won't go to the newly minted GA teams? Is this you're arguement?[/quote] Are enough of them good enough to fill out all of the new GA and ECNL roster spaces? [/quote] I don't know. If only there was something clubs could to to make them better. Maybe we could call it development.[/quote] How was Spain a small country in Europe able to beat the USWNT in the last women's world cup? The truth is that there's sooo much more potential talent in America than is currently being tapped into. Instead if trying to block others out you should be encouraging growth in the sport.[/quote] Limiting the numbers of teams in national leagues leaves out a whole lot of potential talent that develops later into their teen years. As much as we like to think the best players will make the best teams at any age, in reality, rosters for these teams are mostly set by U14 and getting through after that is very difficult. Club politics, coach familiarity, commuting distances, all make it difficult. I don't see why having more teams, giving more opportunities for more players, could be bad for players. The players - isn't that what we are all in this for? [/quote]
