New San Diego MLS Team will have massive Right to Dream Academy

I thought CJ dos Santos did pretty well considering the hand he was dealt. He had some big saves and some important sweeping actions. The goals that were scored he didn’t have much he could do about.

 

gulp

this actually gets into Right to Dream and all that

 

Nothing USYNT related but SDFC certainly looked competent enough beating the defending champs 2-0 in their first ever game

Calling them the defending champs is a bit of a Ship of Theseus situation, that is not at all the same team that lifted the cup last year.

 

So I was looking to see if Saidi made the bench for San Diego last night, he did not. Having looked over their roster, he's a good 4 years younger than every other player. Since they do not have a Next Pro team, are there plans to loan him out?

 

Saidi was on the bench but didn’t play

Not youth related but appear to have a young American goalie starting in Dos Santos.

 

And the roster setup is pretty good for him if he can perform. The other guys are, broadly speaking, journeymen and a prospect.

 

As far as the youth is concerned, Alvarado subbed on, Mighten did not

 

That's yet another Philly Academy product..........

 

Right to Dream MLS goal... for San Jose

Alvarado was excellent and won’t be on the bench for long, if he comes this up.

It's all irrelevant, because if you move to MLS you are practically stuck there, because they sign young talents to keep them as long as possible in MLS, while Danish clubs sign young foreign youth internationals, also from bigger countries, like Germany, with the promise that they are going to be sold within a few years to one of the top 5 leagues of Europe, MLS do not make such promises.

The only reason why young foreign internationals move to the Danish league or Danish youth clubs, is because they know it's good for a quick future career in the top leagues of Europe. The players knows this, just as the top-5 league clubs of Europe also know this, which is also why not only the Danish league but also Danish youth leagues are more than heavily scouted.

The finished "product", who almost made it, but just not quite, are usually also too good for MLS, just look at Anders Dreyer.

 

Almiron, Duran, Brenner, Almada, Cucho, Gomez, Bombito...........................................

You've got no clue

 

Petrovic, Gomez, Castellanos, Biuk, Carranza. Virtually all South American with a couple of Eastern Europeans but there is attention from bigger European clubs and there are sales. This is no dead end league.

 

Are we back to this again?

 

Seems so. The dandelion of big soccer.

Credit to San Diego for already starting two very young American fullbacks
