Originally posted by Unregistered View PostI knew this would happen and i hope the rest of the US continues to hoard their own players and not push them towards the academy. Money-sucking vampires.
The new policy is a disincentive for European clubs to bring these Americans with EU passports over. Because they are now more expensive if they Make it.
Recent years some or most promising talent left us MLS academies before there first pro contract and are now worth something. MLS wants there piece of the pie.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThe sole purpose is to stop the bleeding of the top top .01 leaving for Europe before they sign with us. Under current policies players that leave mls academy before they sign a contract with MLS club are free to European clubs.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThe cost to bring in a top American player is peanuts for European clubs. This is the same model that the rest of the works utilizes so the US player will not be disadvantaged. Why should the MLS academies receive zero compensation. Of course they want a return on their investment.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostTraining compensation is only due when the club invests in the player. As far as i know only MLS clubs have free youth academy. All other DA teams are pay to play. They dont deserve compensation if the parents paid.

Originally posted by Unregistered View Postyes 100%. the loophole for 16 or even 18 y.o. was crazy - upside was some kids were taken on fliers, downside was MLS going nuts losing 1st team talent for zero. Now, thank god, we're just like everyone else.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostHow are we like everyone else? 99.99999% of American soccer is still pay to play. MLS aint paying anyone to get the top players so they will still miss many of them. They will simply make a buck every now and again and then hoard their moneys like the petty little misers that they are. This will be the final dagger in DA. If it does not dissolve from its current form this year, then next year (or part of it) will be their last. Imagine you are a non-MLS club, showcasing your talent at DA games next year so MLS clubs can cherry pick your best players and then profit from them less than a year later? You would have to be a fool to put yourself in this position. They steal your best talent and then THEY profit from it? Now, I think the pressure will come from non-MLS clubs to get out sooner rather than later. This system creates even more division and that is NOT what we needed in our youth systems.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostWhy would non-MLS clubs leave? BDA is their bread and butter and without BDA they're in just another league. MLS clubs are going to cherry pick the best talent regardless of payments or no payments. It's the MLS clubs who were driving the possible BDA breakup. They grew tired of paying to train players and getting little out of it. Now they can possibly profit from their home growns and they'll be more inclined to stay.
