Academy season

Strikers will be fine. They just need to make some of there current players learn new roles. But I do agree they lost two studs that were 02's. The center mid that was a distributor was a great leader on the field, but the player that will be missed the mat will be the 02 goal keeper. The striker team was always loaded with speed and talent, but always came short until last years addition of their new keeper. He was tall and new the position really well. It wasn't until his addition that the team finally went from always the brides maid to finally the bride.
I'm not sure if the new coach is worried. Or just looking but he was at United Cup looking at CDA Godinez. So were Pats Academy a couple of weeks prior. You would think the Academy teams should be set and give their players a chance.
 
Great goalless tie by strikers vs fcgs. Would like watch that same game every weekend as the players would benefit on both sides to play quicker.

Thought the red card for the hair pull on the strikers mid was a bit harsh but entertaining to play a man down the last 20 mins.

Look forward to watching these teams compete until college.
 
Good game between GSA and Strikers.
Today it wasn't about who's better. It's about what each team needs to do to develop properly. The Strikers played better than GSA with 10 players in the last 10 minutes. They almost scored.

The Strikers have a lot of heart. Props to the whole team and the new Coach who just started with those boys. It was the second game of the season. True Development starts in a few weeks once everyone has settled in. Winning doesn't matter unless you're on this forum of course.

GSA has a great style of play where everything starts from the back. Strikers play the opposite style. They Start from the top and put a lot of pressure with their speed on top. Both styles are different but efficient.

I feel bad for the kid who got the red card. That was BS for sure. Poor kid was just trying to hold on to his shirt but the hair got in the way. Let the kids play!!

You sound so freakin' new at this I swear!

Hahahaha!
 
What kind of Intel are you trying to get. Galaxy worked on their shape and ball movement. The score line might indicate a close game. It was not but pats gave it a good effort. I'm looking forward to the game against strikers to see if they are going to play kick and run. I think they will be chasing the ball most of the time and get tired out. Word on he street is that they aren't as talented as most people think. They rely on their speed to get offense. Kind of one dimensional if the scouting report is true.
 
Jack Z Thanks for the heads up on Pats TV. After watching. Pat's goalie had rough first game, midfield really struggled to control ball and provided limited service to their forward. FCGS midfield is pretty strong and defensively they are organized..

Not sure. He made kid mistakes. Got caught in no mans land twice, and didn't have time and space to react to shot. Hopefully he remains confident and he will learn from this game.

The Goalie was the old Rangers and ODP goalie. He's legit but just had a bad game vs GSA.

The Strikers are really good and I'm confused of why people bash on the Strikers.

I think we have a misunderstanding of what development means.

Learning to win is developing
Learning how to play out the back is developing
Learning how to adjust when being dominated is Developing
Learning why you lost is developing

Receiving longballs is developing
Learning a new system is developing
Watching good soccer on TV is developing
Playing Fifa 2016 is Developing
Learning the history of soccer is developing.

New $300 Cleats not Developing
Driving 2 hours away not Developing
Playing 5 games over a weekend horrible for development and great for injuries and stunt growth.

This is a world sport it's not just played in Barcelona. In the last 10 years name the last Super Star player that Barcelona has produced with this real development that everyone claims. Who Newmar? Suarez? I'm waiting. In the last 10 years who?

When all of these kids become men the pro teams only care about 2 things.

Can we score? Can we defend?
Ok 3 things can we sell tickets?

Woods played with the Strikers and he received long balls the whole time.
Last Sunday he scored on a long ball in the Bundesliga. I can't wait to see a developed Galaxy player play in Europe! I'll be here waiting while the GSA, Strikers and Pats players continue to get noticed by Real European clubs.

GSA player signed England
Pats player signed Italy
Strikers player signed Germany

Galaxy???
Galaxy 2 maybe?

What is the future for the Galaxy Academy players? College Scholarships?
Professional Contracts with Galaxy 2 making 30k a year?

Why would you get locked up in that System? They don't want their kids to leave them or to leave the country. That's the biggest difference between Galaxy and the rest of the development academies

Strikers want their kids to be able to play anywhere in the World and they open the doors for all their players.

At this age it's not about just winning. It's about learning how you win and why you lose. Both lessons can be valuable. The problem is that teams don't teach players why they won or why they lost. That takes at least 1 hour after the game is over to explain. I only know of 2 coaches in the United States that does this.
Why did you win? Why did you lose?
Both are great questions for development. These kids need to learn why things happen.

No need to post youth Videos to make a statement. It means absolutely nothing.

How about you post club and academy Alumni? That's what really counts.

How many Strikers in the Last 10 years have received College Scholarships?

How about Galaxy?

If you could only name 1 player that only Barcelona and Spain fans know then I made my point.

I'm talking the best players in the world like Xavi Iniesta Messi Pique 10 years ago.

Either way I'm glad you answered the Barcelona question and completely ignored my Galaxy questions.

I love the Barcelona style for sure. Actually it's my favorite team to watch play. They dont have many star Academy Barcelona players beside Messi who was developed in Rosario by the way then he was helped in Barcelona.

Remember the Galaxy is not Barcelona.

Are you retarded or something, you asked if someone can name at least one Super Star La Masia has produced in the last 10 years? I named Sergio Busquets, but you continue rambling on as if you made a point.
