The Revolution Academy needs to make some changes.

Question can the revs cut players during the season? Seems harsh but if it is free and parents are not paying is there an obligation to keep a player?
Just asking with revs having ID camps if there are players that are better than what they have will they bump the weaker players off the roster?
Seeing revs only have one team per age group not like other clubs where they clud move a player.

They're identifying kids for RDS silly. This is how they suck money out of parents to help pay for the regular teams.

Nobody gets sarcasm on this site. Someone else asked why he would go if it wasn't for "crazed, abusive" parents? It's because of the training. If he was invited even better. Take a risk there vs continue with the Revs, a developmental dead end? Even if it doesn't work out he'll still return a stronger player than had he stayed

You will if you look at the Top Drawer Soccer profile of their kids. It seems they've switched it back from Belenenses recently. Not going so well?

Maybe but it also had him at U14. Topdrawer does go into your accounts and adds photos and other items. Maybe they went back to his old profile?

#3 topic of all time on TS

In under a year this topic has become the #3 topic of all time on TS. It's rapidly accumulating posts and headed towards #2!

If it garners 15 posts per day it becomes #2 by New Years Eve.

At 23 posts per day it becomes #1 by the ball drop.

Keep the dysfunction coming. The Revs deserve to be #1 at something.

Kid was cut from Revs - they spend night and day trying to get revenge having created this thread.

Pop a failed greenhorn wannabe soccer player coached rec soccer living through kids. Mom a krazy obsessed trasher of kids teamates. Off to a failed Portuguese club. Supported by Valeo to establish their Euro presence. Hows that working out for them? Why no results? Suspicous hype as always.

Great article.

Anyone wanting to go pro should be recruited to a full time program, preferable one of the top in the world. In Brazil and Europe, there is no dueling concept of college.

Revs academy kids are college bound.

The kid who was cut has parents working for Valeo to set up a European satellite. Not quite "recruiting" caliber. But all the best to those kids trying to make it in the tough world of EU football.

My friend is from Portugal. He and his children hold passports from both countries. He's made it quite clear that he'd never move his children to Portugal expressly because of the education gap.
