Neymar another awesome futsal player.
By the way, every player you names is an elite athlete. I can tell you that if “you don’t know where your kid would be without futsal” , it means that they aren’t an elite athlete. If they are faster and stronger than everyone else they’d be dominant.
I’m guessing that you think the number juggles that your kid can do matters as well.
I’m also guessing that your kid is younger than u12 for girls or u15 for boys. Once u16 comes around for boys, the only dominant players are high level athletes. The futsal kids...well they keep playing futsal.

Yes being an elite athlete is 100% required to be an elite player at any meaningful level.
But being an elite athlete without an elite skillset (ball handling/decision making etc) makes you a kid that gets $2500/yr towards your education and get to play in a DII or DIII school for a few more years.
If that is your goal cool! party on, enjoy have fun. If you have an expectation of being a professional though you will need both.
All of american soccer seems to gravitate towards the freakishly athletic, and ignoring the skills, or assuming you can teach these kids the needed skills. In most cases you can't, the kids don't see the point in juggling or studying the game because until they are 16 or so they can just outrun everybody, by then its too late.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostHey, by the way, we live in the US—direct soccer is still king. Multi sport athletes are still superior. Why play Futsal when we can hit the weights and track. I’d rather have a kid who can run a sub-11 100M, can pole vault 13 ft, and dunk on the soccer field then some slow midget who can do 37 v-cuts in a row. The funny thing is soccer is so diluted with non-athletes down here that when a freak comes through they can dominate instantly. The rest of the world has the premier athletes play soccer...the US has the leftovers. That’s where we need to change. Futsal is not the answer. Genetics is.
The problem is that most US soccer parents thin the really skilled kid is the one that "can do 37 v-cuts in a row" ... no that kid sucks too... and probably isn't athletic. I mean the guys that have multiple moves... and know when/how to pass, tackle, receive a pass, etc. (I know its tough cause theres only like a half dozen of these kids in all of FL and they arent overly-developed enough to make a "top" team)

And we dont make the world cup.
And Euro teams can beat the MLS all-star team every year using their bench.
