[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well the problems are:

1. We want to win World Cup and develop international quality players
2. We hate "pay to play"
3. MLS sucks.
4. We don't want to pay the actual price to achieve any of the above or improve upon any of the above.

Every system has its flaws its the ones you're willing to live with that matter.

So true.  On the "actual price" front, while reading the recent posts I've been thinking about how so many people in the States think it's an absolute tragedy that USSF makes kids choose between playing DA and playing high school.  Compare that with the actual tragedy of a diminished future for so many of the kids cut from academies in England.  [/quote]

The stakes for us are relatively low currently. As difficult as is playing in college is not an unattainable goal. If a kid wants to play soccer in college, if they work hard enough they can. Some paths make it easier to achieve than others but hard work can get you there.

In Europe, the proximity of the local pro club makes the dream seem tangible for many but the quality required to achieve the dream is on a scale of magnitudes greater than my kid playing in college. [/quote]
