Let’s take JD, most of her serious training has occurred at the Keeper Institute in south NJ, with other NT keepers, she is certainly one of the best in her 2019 class, was she subjected to shiity training too???

when you say she is one of the best, how many of the others have you seen? Im not saying she isnt, but im asking.

So she went to specialized training outside her club?

Makes sense.

How about the general field player. Which clubs developed those players over the last decade.

sometimes yes. but that stock response you gave is exactly why there is no accountability . People dismiss real questions that SHOULD be asked by suggesting they only come from self interest.

the YNTs have been awful for 4 cycles now and yet we have the same coaches Mark Carr and BJ Snow, picking the same core group of players.

Who is the ultimate decision maker? USSF. Not the clubs. Hire more friggin' scouts if need be.

The biggest problem is who has been developing these players for 4 cycles now. Whatever program put in place that developed these players over the last decade is trash.

And what, GDA is a better solution? Maybe on paper it was but USSF's execution of GDA has be terrible. ECNL has it flaws, but it is not entirely to blame for what has been happening. Ultimately USSF is the organizational head. They've been sleeping for years and GDA was lazy and poorly done.

Oh, I get it. So, ECNL fails and turn the blame on GDA.

Makes sense.

No, not insecure at all...

they cant. no one wants to work for the USSF. you have to move to Chicago. also the "right" number of scouts would be a large number. Instead they rely on Club coaches to be unbiased and honest.

That creates a huge conflict of interest as Clubs use YNT call ups as marketing.

the decision makers are the same 3 people all the time and surprise surprise, they form opinions early and dont really change them. The inputs they get are from the same Club coaches who have little incentive to change opinions.

The system is flawed because there is no incentive to say, i was wrong. Look at the YNTs. Poor results and a very poor playing style and yet no real changes in personnel.

People dont understand. The USSF is NOT a place that the top coaches aspire to be a part of. Its a place where those that cant do better end up.

the USSF and the Club system is intertwined but they have VERY different and conflicting goals. The USSF cannot afford to rebuild all that Club infrastructure . the Clubs themselves do not benefit by being honest.

It a vicious cycle that shows no sign of getting any better. The GDA has so far failed because it is underpinned by Clubs who do not need to support it. The ECNL is a successful business. Both are poor developers of elite talent.

I think players get guidance from individuals ( coaches, parents , other players, tv etc), a place to play from Clubs, but they develop themselves. Clubs tend to take credit for marketing purposes

people need to forget the leagues and accept that its not a league problem. its much bigger than that. our kids are getting better and better with the ball as they start earlier, but our understanding of the game is losing ground to the other countries that actually organize their player pool on the basis of talent alone.

ignoring results for a minute, the most disturbing thing is HOW we play at YNT level. We have many talented athletes but we dont seem capable of molding them into a coherent TEAM because we dont seem to see the game well.

We are constantly promoting the next great player, as if they can carry the load, without really looking at how and what we teach.

I read things like Pugh played HS and she is great as justification of one path over another. its flawed.

bottom line is we dont have a pathway for our most promising talent. And we certainly dont have one that challenges them every year to get better to stay involved

One of the issues with our national team is that our players all grew up playing in different formations and with different standards as to what they were expected to do. This is part of what the DA is supposed to fix but they are failing at doing so.

For example, try finding a German youth academy that doesn't play a 4-2-3-1 these days. Regardless of the players they have, with rare exception they commit to that formation because that is the preferred formation of the national team. You can take just about any promising youth and stick him on the national team and he will play his position properly and they will instinctively know where their teammates should be on the field despite having never played with them before.

Failing to do so? It hasn't even been two years. Going to take a while to fix the mess in front of them.

If it can be fixed....our current system will need to be scrapped completely and rebuilt from the bottom up. this will probably be a 16-20 year wait.

My daughter is a GK, so I have seen some of her teammates including AA from Mustang FC, and JD is just as good, and quicker, and I have seen her practice with any number of PDA, PF and NJ Rush players!

i dont agree. you need to differentiate between tactics and fundamentals. Players can adapt to formations if they have solid fundamentals and decent athleticism
