Don't we?   We don't generate many Tyler Adams', but we have our share of  MLS guys.   Omir and Tolkin got a lot of minutes this year.

your right.. I meant 1-2 usmnt players

Those are some lofty expectations, does any academy on earth kick out 1-2 national team players per year?

Thanks, I'm going to keep an eye out if a total price tag comes out so I can link it whenever someone lazily claims "lack of investment". Hard to purchase 80 acres of land in Morris County build out seven full sized fields, four 7v7 fields, a half field indoor facility on a shoestring budget.

So they are happy to spend a ton on development, fantastic.

But why not spend another couple of mil on a proper DP to get us over the top on the pitch? Not asking for Henry/Giovinco but for a Lodeiro/Ruidiaz caliber player.

Why not? A marquee market needs marquee players!
Think of the superstars we have had in the past.
Imagine trying to market a major league franchise by showing photos of our shiny new training facility!

We are good enough to beat the best teams, and bad enough to lose to the worst teams.

It would certainly be nice to get someone of Henry's stature again, but I'm definitely not holding my breath.
