Most (all?) MLS teams have youth academies now.

Watching German kids play they are so much more technical than their american counterparts or even HS players.

Academies that are three years old aren't as advanced as ones that have been around for decades?

SKC has a homegrown guy who could have gone to some CL-level clubs/academies in Europe but stayed home. more and more guys are choosing to stay in MLS and other American academies. sure he played for SKC before they changed the academy but he has been with the club since he was young.

We won't see the benefit of these academies for at least a decade.
