    There is a new youngest player to make a match day squad, last night Real Monarchs had '08 GK William Mackay on their bench.

    I am sure we will see flashy press releases from RSL touting this fact. While I respect that RSL is using MLS Next Pro to develop younger players in general (one of the few clubs to actually get the memo that this is what this league was supposed to be about), the competition/hype about which club plays the youngest player at MLS Next Pro is absurd.

    I agree, but I think in this situation they just have that many GK’s unavailable right now for the pros and academy. I don’t think the plan behind this is that he’s going to play soon for the Next Pro team. He’s barely gotten any games for the U-15’s.

    03* unfortunately you can’t hear my reaction in the staff seats below the camera on this but the video angle didn’t do the shot justice at all, what a screamer

  11. That was a John Stockton assist. The goal scorer had everything to do.

    Not good for Fire II shipping 9 goals against in the last 3 halves of action.There's a first XI unavailable due to injuries, national team callups, and first team commitments. It doesn't help playing against teams of older more experienced players like Columbus and St. Louis with college freshmen and academy kids. It's all about development, though.

    Axel Kei (‘07) scored a goal against the Rapids first team. Rapids are using Next Pro as a scrimmage league for their first team during the international break. There’s no video available of the goal right now.

    Kei's goal was on a pretty hopeless ball over the top, where he had to do all the work and create the chance all by himself. It was the only shot the Monarchs registered all game. Extremely impressive goal, beating Abubakar and Irwin who have 250+ MLS appearances between them.

    Gavin Beavers had a strong game too - understandably had quite a lot of work to do against a first-choice Rapids team and had at least 2 point-blank saves that I noticed. Wasn't at fault on any of the 3 goals that I remember.

    This kid is actually pretty good. I was watching him play thinking he was Rinker, and noted it was a good performance for Rinker. Given he’s an ‘08 that has gotten some recent games playing up an age group, he’s doing well.

    1. My god they need to fix these motion-tracking cameras... update the AI or the firmware or whatever pls... maybe this is another place where the MLS-Apple TV deal (which includes MNP games) will pay off?

    2. Already just as good as Gyasi Zardes and Jonathan Lewis confirmed
