The way that MLS has started to accumulate South American talent can really help the league become entertaining along with American homegrown talent.

Kinda surprised Brendan Aaronson and Mark Makenzie weren’t in this vid. Both had Europeans scouts watching them last night agains Sporting KC.

Speaking of the MLS, can you make a video on the SaveTheCrew movement and how the entire MLS pitched in to prevent the Columbus Crew from moving to Austin? A great story on how football and passion won against greed.

Been playing a Toronto FC career on FIFA recently and its got me into MLS. FIFA can be toxic but one thing I'll credit it for is spiking my interest in other leagues and teams

[bhaawanmathur]

loving this series! Tifo>>>>

My dream is to become a professional footballer. I come from a not so good neighborhood in Canada, I love everything about football from the pitch to the tactics and skills. I would literally play this game for free if it actually means I’m a footballer. Hopefully in the next few years I will sign for a club

[Erikali]

This was really good. I was hoping you broke down American's in the Bundesliga. Then I remembered you've already done that video.

I just wanna say a few things;
1) This has become one of my favourite YT channels for sure, wish I found it earlier. Saying that I have more to binge on so, silver linings.
2) You deserve more subs, though I have no doubt they will come in time. High quality content like this is not so easy to find.
3) It's interesting hearing the development over time. Feels like your audio setup and/or production has gotten better as your channel has grown.

Cheers

0:11 y'all made Greenland and Alaska part of Canada lmao

0:11 There’s some aggressive Canadian foreign policy right there!!! 👀

An idea for this series is that when you’re done with a player profile, you can compare him to a player that he can emulate or his play style resembles. For example “Player X is primarily and 8 who has exceptional passing, can drive forward with the ball and his diminutive stature allows his to turn on a dime. Player X can be compared/ plays a similar game to Iniesta

[MiguelTorres-tcse]

Yes! Let’s get more content related to Asian, African, and North American football

It's nice seeing so many of our players on this list, and having one of our best as the first featured player. In bob we trust.

Many mistakes here, who came up with the list. Especially the Honorable Mentions.

Carlos Coronel doesnt play for Philadelphia and has been back at RB Salzburg since July of 2019, a whole year ago. Hes also not particularly good for Philly or Salzburg the opportunities he's received and if you'd like the top young goalkeepers in MLS David Ochoa and JT Marcinkowski are much more promising

Auston Trusty joined Colorado from Philadelphia 6 months ago, but getting his team wrong isnt even the most egregious mistake. It completely ignores his fellow academy product CB Mark Mckenzie who is younger, far more talented, and far more coveted in Europe.

Jordan Hamilton does not play for Toronto, he plays for Columbus and has done so for a whole year. He also isnt particularly young or particularly good. Hes 24 and has never been a starter in MLS. I dont understand.

Honorable mentions is missing Brian Rodriguez. LAFC spent 11.5 million after his U20 WC and hes already starting and scoring for Uruguay senior team last fall. He has far more potential than Rossi too.

Gianluca Busio isnt mentioned but broke through starting his first MLS game at 16 and now had a bid of 4 million from Fiorentina last winter.

How on earth is Basset in the top 5 though?? thats ridiculous, especially since hes not even the 5th best AMERICAN U21 midfielder, let alone imports. Hes a decent enough youngster getting reps in the 1st team but Paxton Pomykal is out here dogging MLS as one of the best players in the entire league. Last summer he shut down Bayern-bound Michaele Cuisance and France U20's stacked midfield at the WC. Brendan Aaronson is loads more interesting and likely to play at the highest leagues too

[karlmarxjr]

Thousands of people: "interesting"
Me, a player of football manager: "ah yes the chosen ones"

[CrescentCitySweaters]

18-year-old Gianluca Busio for Sporting KC and 20-year-old Ayo Akinola for Toronto FC have been the standout young players during the MLS is Back tournament. Busio is definitely the most intriguing prospect in the league in my opinion. Expect a European move for him before he turns 21. Rossi for LAFC is good, but his numbers are inflated by a powerhouse LAFC offense. Honorable Mention to 21-year-old Vancouver Whitecaps third string goalie Thomas Hasal, who suddenly was thrust into a few games of the tournament and did not allow a goal in his 202 minutes of play. Singlehandedly brought a bad Vancouver team to penalties against Sporting KC.

[ForTheDivi]

Brenden Aaronson as a central attacking midfielder for the Philadelphia Union is also exciting to watch at age 19

[PGDJ]

I liked the T I F O button layout on the “switch”

Ok let me put this as transfer targets in FM.
