US U20 "Deep Dip in Egypt" underlines need for development
Today I have seen two different pieces on what the US U20's bomb out in Egypt means for player
development in the US. (See these great pieces, Phil Schoen's here and Glenn Davis' here.) Player
development in the US, or at least what passes for it, is a serious problem. I've always maintained
that the elimination of the MLS Reserve League was about one thing only, reducing the player pool
available to potentially strike or (more likely) be locked out should the negotiations for the new
CBA somehow fail.
