This is an amazing team. It combines the grit and confidence of the best NU players with the organization and silky passing of Valeo. They could go far.

Actually you have a couple of players that didn't make the NEFC Elite team.

I love how on Valeo's "presentation slideshow", their competitive pyramid does not include US Development Academy Programs. Now that's propaganda… shielding everyone in "their club" from all the facts.

Ladies and gentlemen, this "club" has two teams that a decent BEFORE puberty has hit… wait three years then let me know what these teams, and this club looks like. Valeo is a joke club. A pretender. A wannabe. Let me know when the first kid leaves at 16/17 and gets a professional offer in MLS or Internationally… then I'll be impressed.

Go back on the threads a few years, lots of chatter in the U12 & U13 years, then it dies off. You'll notice there is no talk about the current U14, U15, U16+. In my opinion, parents realize IT DOES NOT MATTER. Right now you are all psycho about little Johnny being the best in his town and winning with his club on Sundays so you can brag about it on Monday morning at the water cooler.

ps- quit caring so much about GotSoccer Rankings… it makes me sick every time I hear someone reference them.

And you have an Elite team that had their hands full with the Valeo Premier (b) team.
Hope to see a rematch after your boys take the winter off again.

We also have some that did and chose Valeo. But if there are those that didn't--your loss.

Valeo already has several kids that have made it big, including the Revs, full college and private school scholarships, and the National Futsal team. Sorry to ruin your day :)

So using the earlier poster's point about developing individuals first to be successful long-term - won't the formation of this team be detrimental to their development?... and shouldn't they continue to develop as individuals?

You're right. Playing with other good players and increasing their challenge every practice and game will inhibit their development. You are a smart one.

So to clarify - are you saying the NU players are tough and think they're good... while the Valeo players are soccer-smart and skilled?

No, like all good things it's more of a yin and yang situation

NU seems to have the offensive aggression developed while the Valeo players have the defensive aggression down. NU players score many of the goals. Valeo players don't let in very many goals.

The two clubs merged this team well. Seems opposite on the second team. Defensive NU players and offensive V players.

How did this Champions League quality team lose to an average Aztec team only a few months ago?

Yea, in a world were 'grit&conf' mean "helicopter dad sanctioned ball hogging". BTDT. Get some real offensive players that can match the soccer-smart and skilled defense and you will have a real team.

Actually was a 0-0 tie and then anything can happen in PK's... And yes they lost fair and square

Hands full..... Okay
You already know the training schedule for the winter?

If leaving your club for the Revs is your metric for "making it big" you should probably be looking at MPS(9 Revs players), NEFC(6) or Scorpions(4) instead.

Did you actually type "National Futsal team?" That's funny.
