2011 Boys

Letting the little guys have a break, although RB South is the real deal.

Is the RB South team any good? So hard to tell with the opponents they faced last year. Although I think they are playing in the other EDP bracket this spring.

No, they are too small and too slow. All but 2-3 kids will be cut before academy. No chance they even get out of their bracket at the Turf Cup. Sorry you guys drank the Red Bull Punch!!!!!!

Typical Red Bulls team. Got 3 fast strong kids, they take the ball run and shoot.

The Red Bull South is the best 2011 team in the tri strate area. They destroyed FA Silver and they had mainly an all A team squad. I don't think CSA Bergen can hang with them either.

While I agree they are the best team… they destroyed the “FA Silver” team is a bit more than a TAD bit out of context. FA black just won the state cup and 2 days later travel to Red Bull on a weeknight and no one is allowed into the facility. ABSURD RULES But red bull Can have 3 or 4 age groups of kids come over to the sideline available on the sideline screaming like lunatics and acting like jerks. FA Silver did have a good roster, but played everyone out of position and there was no pressure. FA Silver lost handily. Goalies played Left Mid. Defenders played midfield. Strikers played defense. Who cares. Accepted the loss and knew they would play down after the high of wining the state cup. Can’t say I disagree with the scenario.

Will RB allow spectators in spring?

If you accepted the loss then why try to rattle off reasons/excuses for the loss? Why play like that and not have the kids get scouted properly? That’s the real crime in that scenario

No need to argue about last season’s game. FA black and RB south are in the the same flight in spring.

All the top kids played in their correct positions, no need to make up lies to make your self feel better about how bad the RB destroyed your team. The FA kick and run didn't work because they never had posession of the ball and when the goalie punted it like always he gave the ball right back to the RB players lol not the goalies fault he is only doing what he was taught to do.

Yup..agreed…FA typical style of playing. Same goalie kicks long. Their Mid shoots.

incorrect. Not my sons team, and Red Bull did win handily…. but I did watch the video of the game and my son has friends who played (both teams recorded the game). All the top kids did not play in their correct (normal) positions. CB played Midfield, GK played Midfield for the 1st half (not sure how he was punting from a wide midfield position) CM played Defense, CDM played wide midfield. While I don’t agree with why that was done, it is what happened and you can’t pretend it didn’t when you can watch the video and see.

I still think Red Bull South is the strongest team, but it is very close with FA and CSA Bergen. The Red Bull team just presses like lunatics and actually yell out “press” while doing it. Whole team pressing leads to turnovers when kids are 10 and learning to play possession style soccer and then Red Bull scores off of the turnovers. Nothing fancy or pretty or good build up. Just another gimmick like a big fast strong team who plays long ball with stronger faster kids. obviously the Red Bull coaches also think this is their top team if they requested to have them moved into the Blue flight instead of the red flight they played in during the fall.

Red Bull south started the year slow as the new kids learned to play the team press style and their early season results weren’t great but they improved as the season went on. 2-2 draw with SJEB Red, 2-1 win over Match Fit Blue, only a 3-1 win over CSA Bergens 2nd team. They figured it out and played well late in the fall. They did struggle and barely beat a weak Red Bull North team 3-2 who also presses, just not as strong, to win the weaker EDP fall tournament instead of playing in the stronger EDP cup Fall tournament.

The Reb Bull’s have 3 2011 teams but only enter two in tournaments? Do they combine/mix up their kids to stack a team? Is this really the south team as it looks like they beat SJEB 6-1 in a tournament but tied them 2-2 a few weeks earlier during a league game?

NY team doesn’t have enough kids and would bring in kids from North or South for league games. That I know. I would guess that those NY players are added to South and North for tournaments.
