100% MLS academy u16 call up!! No words for this kind of spirited recruiting effort. We are so bad at this.. @TaylorTwellman This is what I was talking about…. How do you justify the incestual relationship between US Soccer and MLS without saying the ynt call up system lacks merit? And since our national ynt lacks merit, the national team lacks merit.

La forma americana de llevar a un niño a hacer deporte debería estudiarse. 🇪🇸 En España: Tu hijo quiere jugar al fútbol. Lo apuntas al equipo del barrio. Entrena martes y jueves. Partido el sábado. Tú llevas agua. Fin. 🇺🇸 En Estados Unidos: ↓
