Well when you’re already the best where is there to go? We’re the only team left thats won before.

Germany’s invested a lot more money since their last World Cup win and they haven’t finished top 3 since.

Just admit it you’re a pansy American that needs daddy Europes approval to feel whole

When America wins the World Cup what will you do? Will you hide? Will you be sad we didn’t do it the European way? Will you write a 20 page manifesto about how not having pro/rel is ruining American soccer?

domestic league and the lack of investment in it compared to giant european clubs going all in on the ladies game You have clubs probably put in more money into it than our entire federation.

Where does this money come from? Other federations make ten fold what ours does, and the gap in revenue between MLS and bundesliga, premier league, etc is enormous, and like you said they bankroll the women’s game there. How the hell are we supposed to be on an equal footing in terms of money supporting the women’s game?

USSF makes huge profits just from the pay to play model

Money isn't the only issue. It's the organization. Women's soccer in the US would fare far better if it were paired with the MLS, as that could allow travel costs to be subsidized, and sponsorship arrangements to include the women's team. As of now, the NWSL is subsidized by the federations of Canada, Mexico, and the US, which seems like an inefficient system. I would love it, in fact, if MLS teams started women's teams to compete against the NWSL, as I think the key is that we need at least 15-20 women's professional teams, to compete with the numbers we are seeing from England and France specifically.

Essentially what I'm saying is that we need the women's game to piggyback off the established men's game, just as they did in Europe, to maximize resources.

Pretty much MLS and USSF subsidies the league much like the NBA and WNBA

But they put the least amount possible into it

From what I can understand, Chelsea/Barca/Lyon and the rest all subsidize their women’s teams directly while we have the federations do it. So there is more parity, far fewer super teams and lower pay for all but the USWNT players.

European management will just take financial losses in a dick measuring contest or for tax write-offs. More than anything, it compares to the WNBA and Turkey/Russia/China than anything else.

However it is completely true that there has been handwringing about how Europe is catching up to the US for a decade now and the articles could literally be copied and pasted into today’s world.

I’m going to need a citation for this, chief, because I’m pretty sure you pull shite like this out of your arse just to sound knowledgeable when I really think you have no idea what you’re talking about.
