Sorry but you don’t learn how to be a pro in college… as in the everyday and battling older teammates that are playing to feed their families and keep a job.
I have to admit that the us has world class under 18 teams but understand this, this isn't gonna guarantee success, look at mexico.
Under 18s and the senior team are like two different continents, they're completely different

You guys finally talk about TFC and it's more about Philly for a 1 minute clip……. Bob Bradley is making a team full of teenagers a rebound of the year candidate and you guys don't seem as impressed by it as we are in Toronto……
Just to let people know that the under 15 and under 17 teams from Europe were the reserves from those teams. Telling the whole truth is very important to the conversation. No future stars from Europe participated in these tournaments.
I will say refereeing in this tournament has been an amazing experience. The level of the youth football in the country right now, and continent, was impressive. This has been my favorite tournament to referee ever due to the level of play and the professional mindset from everyone involved, including the coaches, players, and spectators.
Tattoo of the Dallas Sidekicks whole schtick was ripping off his shirt after goals.
What does FMF stand for?
I will donate 5 bucks to the David Gass Memorial Plaque.
Somebody start a GoFundMe and alert the Hunts!
The Rich get richer.

Really really disappointed in this podcast
Extra Time puts in so much effort to make Austin FC fans feel like their team is terrible and that they shouldn’t get excited for 3 point results. It’s game 7 and there’s been barely any time given to Austin and when they are talked about their trashed. We have a really good fan base and a podcast who’s supposed to be all about the fans should hype us up not tear us down. “Overzealous”?? It’s called being a fan, a damn good one. This was my favorite podcast but I might just have to stop listening. It’s not worth the disappointment. VAMOS AUSTIN FC🟢⚫️!!!!!
Just at the peewee soccer games, game is booming popular
Keep doubting Austin. Seems to be helping
"Smashed the Sounders in the second half"? No NY, ignorant bias there. Frei's great, and he's a Sounder. Meanwhile, NY goalie wins the aware but the guy who has always been better than him hasn't. Nope, Sounder whomped NY in the first game, got an early goal in the second, and could sit back in the second half of the second. Desperation doesn't mean "smashed."
Almeyda wasn't able to comprehend how dumb man-marking was. He couldn't adapt and was a failure for that.
Tigres beat River Plate the team that beat Man United they did a fantastic job making it to finals when everybody else doubted them sadly the game wasn’t on their favor
Weibe: Wait to see if Austin's still in the playoffs until after the all star game.
Also weibe: 1:15:52
Texas bbq is about the meat. St Louis bbq is about the sauce.
Legendary opening segment from David Gass. Real high level stuff
so excited for the u15 timbers team!! cant believe they knocked out man utd in the first round, puts a smile on your face to see enthusiastic and talented young players succeeding 🙂
Watched every game of the GA cup. Omg. The technical ability of US kids is off the charts. Tons of talent all over the place. The future of American Socer is SCARY.
