    The shame of your kid playing defense

    Every time I look on Facebook i see my friends whose kids are kids or forwards talking about scoring goals. What am I supposed to brag about a well timed tackle, a devastating well timed slide tackle? None of those sell as well as scoring. The tragedy is all my kids play defense... I am truly shamed.

      You are truly a fidiot. My daughter plays defender and we are pretty proud when they can shutout or hold a decent team to scoring only 1 goal maybe. Defense wins games. Ask the goal scoring princesses how they feel when playing against tough defenders. Or maybe your satisfaction could be when your daughters opponents don't take to social media about scoring much after playing against your daughter. The is some good satisfaction. Colleges recruit top defenders like any other positions. Embrace it.

        I love watching my kid play defense. Nothing funnier than seeing him get under their skin and into their head. Takes a bad ass to embrace the back line

          That’s our skewed culture. How about mids who control the game but never get the glory? Until soccer keeps stats on 1v1 wins , good passes, errors, etc, the only stat we have is goals. Play because you love the game and post stats on how many goals your defenders prevented - a lot more than goals made, I bet.

                No I think it's a good point, however if the Midfielders don't control the game then what's the point of a Forward. It all comes down to Midfielders. If they control the game you dont need Defenders.

                    The balón de or winner will be a centerback. It’s what our country lacks. Quality centerbacks.

                      There are plenty of Quality CBs.Its the corrupt & useless DA System holding the Country back.Now we can't even Quality for WC.The USMNT had much better ranking prior to the DA.Yes this might upset the DA Daddy's & the Clueless DA staff but you caunt argue ranking history.

                        So since you are the self ascribed expert here on the TS, please tell how USMNT should work so much better without DA? Inquiring minds would love to know.

                          Look at the rankings before DA & figure it out from there.If your still confused then ask a Kindergartner.

                            All the “American players” are from Europe or born outside this country they don’t play bloody DA. USA pyramid scam

                              Kinsman was right... these players need to be tested at the highest levels. Problem is usa seems to be focused on MLS players in past year. Good for da, wait and see until how it translates. 6 years to find out
