Agree with most of that. US has too many MLS guys-need to

find more expats that are US born that actually know how to play Euro/South American level soccer...not the orange wedge suburban checkbox kids by the millions in America... You would think we would have a more competitive national team is we pulled from the gazillion columbia, Md, NOVA, insert suburb here kids that play - but no such luck.

Yes we need to get younger and you are spot on about Alitdor

Alright soccer heads, the Copa America Centenario is about to kick off -- ElbertoHokie 06/02/2016 11:07AM

Many USA fans disagree but -- HokieZig 06/02/2016 5:55PM

Good post, I agree, time to get younger and start scoring goals -- Hokie Golfer 06/02/2016 1:47PM

Defense is Brooks, Cameron, Yedlin, Johnson. All young -- CPRVHokie 06/02/2016 2:21PM

Wish we had a left back so Johnson could play outside MF. While FJ attacks -- Gadfly 06/02/2016 3:43PM

Disagree on Klinsmann. I believe. He got us out of a group in Brazil -- CPRVHokie 06/02/2016 6:26PM

Meh, we've achieved in spite of JK not because of him. -- Gadfly 06/02/2016 6:36PM

Disagree. Respectfully. ** -- CPRVHokie 06/02/2016 7:19PM

I trust that group but they never play at the same time, hopefully this is -- Hokie Golfer 06/02/2016 3:35PM

Add in Nagbe, Zardes, Wood, Pulisic. We've got a load -- CPRVHokie 06/02/2016 2:23PM

Yes, but where the majority of our "young" talent is 23 to 28 -- HokieZig 06/02/2016 6:12PM

Meh. We've got a ways to go. Light years ahead of 5 years ago ** -- CPRVHokie 06/02/2016 6:30PM

Don't disagree but unfortunately we need more younger players -- HokieZig 06/03/2016 07:56AM

In what way is it an 'exhibition'? ** -- CPRVHokie 06/02/2016 12:26PM

The real copa America was held last summer -- ElbertoHokie 06/02/2016 12:43PM

It still provides a good opportunity to get points for International Rankin -- hoosnowahokie 06/02/2016 2:08PM

Haha ** -- CPRVHokie 06/02/2016 12:59PM

Aka Money grab -- ElbertoHokie 06/02/2016 1:01PM

Agreed. This is the tournament to identify our next.... -- Jackie VT 06/02/2016 11:58AM

I've not liked Jozy since I first saw him play on the USMNT -- hoosnowahokie 06/02/2016 11:15AM

Agree with most of that. US has too many MLS guys-need to -- HokiePHX 06/02/2016 11:13AM

That area is not producing the players it use too -- HokieZig 06/02/2016 5:53PM

I think that all goes back to how youth soccer is structured here. -- ElbertoHokie 06/02/2016 11:18AM

The biggest improvement in soccer would be made by -- HokieZig 06/02/2016 5:58PM

Absolutely - when nearly 100% of white/asian/latin suburban kids "play" -- HokiePHX 06/02/2016 11:23AM
