There are probably only a couple of girls on FCV who could make the Loudoun Roster now anyways. The tables have turned

Here we go again. Same story as the Loudoun 06, 05, 04, 03, 02, 01...1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 years ago. Take a look at Loudoun 06 vs. FCV 06 aor Loudoun 05 vs. FCV 05 (the last two of this commentary). As the teams age, the talent leaves Loudoun and goes elsewhere. Until that stops happening, Loudoun Dad's perennially wrong opinions are worth exactly nothing.

Next year we will hear how the 08s at Loudoun have all the talent and that FCV has none. Then 09s, etc...

How many Loudoun ECNL 07's have been migrating to FCV over the last two years?

The only common opponent found for 07s is Penn Fusion DA. Loudoun lost to them 2-1. FCV plays them soon. However, FCV is at the top of the U13 DA Atlantic standings above second place Penn Fusion. So saying "there are probably only a couple of girls on FCV who could make the Loudoun roster now anyways. The tables have turned." seems kind of absurd and arrogant.

And don't forget FCV is in first place in their DA division in 07, 06, 05, 04, 03 and 02/01.

Loudoun standings starting with 07 - 1st, 8th, 7th, 6th, 11th(last), 7th.

Now maybe you can see how some of the unbiased people think Loudoun Dad's argument is foolish and arrogant.

It simple is not that hard to be on top of each division in DA. The teams in this division that are in the DA are week at best. This was proven when FCV went against ECNL teams in scrimmages/showcases and either tied or lost. ECNL has better competition, hands down. You want to be called the best FCV? Play ALL the ECNL teams in the DMV at each age group and put your money where your mouth is. The secret is DA won’t allow it. They have to much to lose. DA is full of hypocrisy and FCV is sitting right on top of that triangle. Simply put that club is not that good nor is the teams but anyone can look like a superstar when you are going up against mediocrity.

FCV has scrimmaged 2 ECNL clubs in the past month...and won most age groups easily. There were some tough age groups. Even a broken clock is right twice a day!

ECNL Mid Atlantic is the weakest in ECNL.

To say the FCV DA team are not any good is just trolling. You know better as does everyone on this board.

That just isn’t true. Well we will never know because they won’t scrimmage will they? Bottom line is they do have good teams but ECNL still has more competition and we will never really know until the best teams go against each other.

Oh it is. I sat in the cold and made the drive to MD for both. Bethesda and Maryland U.

Nobody has said that FCV teams are not good. What has been said is that moving forward with 07, 08, 09 and on Loudoun will retain their talent they used to lose in the past to FCV. This is already proving true. FCV ID session numbers are down form years past and Loudoun players on their top 07 and younger teams have remained in tact.

FCV is no longer a destination club it is a simple as that. Does that mean their teams will not be good? No, but it does mean that they will no longer be able to just sit back and wait for the talent to stream in at U13 and U14 like in years past.

But what goes around also comes around. It also means that kids who have been in FCV's system, as long as they are starting will not likely move either but Loudoun has a much, much deeper player pool to pull form and establish depth. FCV traditionally built depth by bringing in top talent pushing players to the bench and without many other showcasing options those players stayed and sucked it up. But now with all the DA and ECNL clubs around it is almost impossible to have a deep and content/happy bench as in years past.

True to some degree. I'm hearing players across many teams either looking or planning to look this spring. They want more PT. Only a few on each roster play every game all game, a very few.

We'll see what happens...it is the beginning of the crazy season.

Yup, but players looking to improve playing time are not to be considered the "top" talent, at least in the eyes of the club who is sitting them. Remember, I said earlier that the only movement will be primarily swapping one teams subs for another. Beauty is in in the eye of the beholder. The point is that the concentration of talent we used to see in years past is no longer happening. Most parents are not willing to drop 7k a year to have their kid sit on the bench if they can move their kid to a team where they will play. Bubble starters will prioritize playing time over the supposed benefits of wearing a particular club logo.

Not always swapping subs, however, the bold above is true. Sometimes a player needs a fresh pair of eyes that may value their talent differently. Not every coach is looking for the same thing out of players. Even the top soccer teams vary in their style of play. Take forwards. Some teams want a tall forward for headers for aerial game if the team likes to cross it into the box and corners versus an Aguero shorter faster striker type if they prefer the passing ground game more. Or maybe they have 2 of one type and would swap one out for what they don't have to make it harder to defend against the team.

IMO and based on watching a lot of the clubs and games in this area, the benches on the FCV rosters are much deeper than the surrounding clubs. The teams rotate so many players with no drop off in production. Maybe the large rosters are for revenue, maybe for depth, maybe for who knows...but they are going to run kids off doing it.

But a good number, if they leave FCV, will displace starters on current teams. And rightfully so.

And don't forget FCV is in first place in their DA division in 07, 06, 05, 04, 03 and 02/01.

Loudoun standings starting with 07 - 1st, 8th, 7th, 6th, 11th(last), 7th.

Now maybe you can see how some of the unbiased people think Loudoun Dad's argument is foolish and arrogant.

It simple is not that hard to be on top of each division in DA. The teams in this division that are in the DA are week at best. This was proven when FCV went against ECNL teams in scrimmages/showcases and either tied or lost. ECNL has better competition, hands down. You want to be called the best FCV? Play ALL the ECNL teams in the DMV at each age group and put your money where your mouth is. The secret is DA won’t allow it. They have to much to lose. DA is full of hypocrisy and FCV is sitting right on top of that triangle. Simply put that club is not that good nor is the teams but anyone can look like a superstar when you are going up against mediocrity.

FCV has scrimmaged 2 ECNL clubs in the past month...and won most age groups easily. There were some tough age groups. Even a broken clock is right twice a day!

ECNL Mid Atlantic is the weakest in ECNL.

To say the FCV DA team are not any good is just trolling. You know better as does everyone on this board.

Nobody has said that FCV teams are not good. What has been said is that moving forward with 07, 08, 09 and on Loudoun will retain their talent they used to lose in the past to FCV. This is already proving true. FCV ID session numbers are down form years past and Loudoun players on their top 07 and younger teams have remained in tact.

FCV is no longer a destination club it is a simple as that. Does that mean their teams will not be good? No, but it does mean that they will no longer be able to just sit back and wait for the talent to stream in at U13 and U14 like in years past.

But what goes around also comes around. It also means that kids who have been in FCV's system, as long as they are starting will not likely move either but Loudoun has a much, much deeper player pool to pull form and establish depth. FCV traditionally built depth by bringing in top talent pushing players to the bench and without many other showcasing options those players stayed and sucked it up. But now with all the DA and ECNL clubs around it is almost impossible to have a deep and content/happy bench as in years past.

True to some degree. I'm hearing players across many teams either looking or planning to look this spring. They want more PT. Only a few on each roster play every game all game, a very few.

We'll see what happens...it is the beginning of the crazy season.

Here we go again. Same story as the Loudoun 06, 05, 04, 03, 02, 01...1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 years ago. Take a look at Loudoun 06 vs. FCV 06 aor Loudoun 05 vs. FCV 05 (the last two of this commentary). As the teams age, the talent leaves Loudoun and goes elsewhere. Until that stops happening, Loudoun Dad's perennially wrong opinions are worth exactly nothing.

Next year we will hear how the 08s at Loudoun have all the talent and that FCV has none. Then 09s, etc...

How many Loudoun ECNL 07's have been migrating to FCV over the last two years?

Where are you getting your information from? Loudoun 07 has played Penn Fusion 3 times, and won twice, lost once. Loss was PKs at Region 1 finals. FCV recently played Penn Fusion (November) in a DA game and lost 3-1. It's funny how FCV hasn't posted that result yet......
