I am a USSF coach- and I can firmly say how surprised I was to see the USSF revamp their youth ways - to emulate Europe.
We no longer focus on “do 29 laps and sprint everywhere”.. no more “boot it up field and hope”
It’s “how well can you manage the ball under pressure” .. “how well can you as a team technically play”..
There’s a huge change. It’s just began recently and hopefully in years to come it will produce talent.
