If you really want what’s best for McGlynn, you’d want him to leave MLS ASAP. His technical skills are above average for an American in the league.
He needs to go to Spain or Italy where their emphasis on technical ability will only raise his level.
Staying in MLS = bad.
MLS Transfers@MLSTransfers
@TheBolivianYank Mcglynn grew up learning this skills in MLS. He’s on a team where he is a A) leader b) expected to perform every week and the directive for you is just leave asap lol
English
@NobletStrength He is a solid Championship player and that’s a nice career

This. I'm not sure why Sargent is the favorite son of Eurosnob USA MNT Twitter, but the reality is he's simply not close to Balogun in many areas. One of which is his off ball movement and just physical qualities to get onto difficult balls to create goals.
duck gaming@duckgaming420
@SoccerCityUSofA @scuffedpod the difference is that sargent doesn’t get himself involved in these kind of chances
English
@ilovesocceryoyo As long as the structure is done correctly it can grow naturally
It all starts with your local Pro-club
Local High schools and Local pay-soccer won't do anything for this sport
English
Who is paying for the nation wide free academy? Thats like $1 billion
Mx@MaxBeretta10818
@beggsy_ @3four3 The most important thing is nationwide free academy coverage with on-site Pro team Usually requires pro/rel Although a lateral D1 structure could work
English
@TheBolivianYank Chievo at the time was a mid table club. Not a bottom dweller. He wasn’t competing for anything.
English
@ilovesocceryoyo Ask Michael Bradley if playing for a minnow in Chievo (Italy) or Toronto fc was more beneficial for his career….
English
@TheBolivianYank He needs life lessons not quality games? Seems logical.
Moat athletes need to get a good tasing in order to be successful
English
@ilovesocceryoyo Yes lol. It’s what builds character and builds life lessons. In Spain, the bottom feeders still play possession based footie as well.
English
@ilovesocceryoyo mixed with local entrepreneurs, sponsorship, charitable flex.... the US has a lot of potential for this kinda thing
I would be less optimistic in a poorer country
they kind of have to do it on a shoe-string in those countries
English
@MaxBeretta10818 How? Pro rel no one is making money. USL admits there is no shared revenue. Most teams are losing money. Where does the money come from?
English
@ilovesocceryoyo as I said before.... first the structure/league needs to be correct
then yes there will be money to be made and people will form clubs
English
@TheBolivianYank So playing on a relegation team and getting thumped every week is good for development?
English
@MaxBeretta10818 Start your own league if there are so many people wanting to start teams. Seems ridiculous they would wait if there is money to be made.
English
@ilovesocceryoyo the structure is not correct
why would I start a club now? .. to join NISA?
lol no thanks
English
@MaxBeretta10818 They can start them now and don’t. Its because there is no demand for pro soccer.
English
@ilovesocceryoyo the areas can decide if they want to start a club.
as long as the structure is correct then its upto them how fast they want it to grow.
English
@MaxBeretta10818 You aren’t getting that many soccer teams this lifetime
English
@ilovesocceryoyo that would be better ratios than the UK
and the US has much better propensity to spend money
English
@ilovesocceryoyo It can be done very local.
probably looking at requiring around 10k fans for every 400k population area
English
@luomostesso @AlamoCitySC And then dozens of other 2nd and 3rd tier sports. NASCAR, golf, tennis, WNBA, etc.
English
@ilovesocceryoyo @AlamoCitySC Not in the US at least. We have too many sports here and that’s cool. In England they have soccer, rugby?, darts? Idk what they really watch besides those. Here, we have 5 major popular sports.
English
@AlamoCitySC @luomostesso Definitely ok with USL trying. Hope they ball out.
Just don’t see the scenario where it does. Will only root for them.
English
@ilovesocceryoyo @luomostesso For me it's just a diff way and has its own set of issues/problems/positives. It isn't NEEDED but if someone wants to try it that's FINE.
IMHO it works on micro level but not a macro one. There comes a point that disparity of resources (reality) erases the point of it
English
@MaxBeretta10818 College teams are highly subsidized. Not even remotely close
English
@ilovesocceryoyo its kind of like College tbh
small Pro teams... but high quantity
English
@ilovesocceryoyo how many teams are in College basketball, College football?
people seem to engage with that
English
@AlamoCitySC @luomostesso I am generally if not all against it. It doesn’t produce desired outcomes. It really doesn’t do anything positive in a professional game.
English
@luomostesso @ilovesocceryoyo I'm not against it either in all honesty. Just not an idiot. We've got quite unique sporting culture/circumstance here in regard to soccer/all it encompasses
It solves some problems but creates others. The proreller crowd simply don't apply truth and logic which is the issue ...
