I always played 1 to 2 years above my age level. Do they not do that anymore siff?
Jozy terrible? I strongly disagree with that and I've been down on Jozy for quite some time now. His hold up play/distribution was excellent and if he had anyone of use up front he would have bagged 2 assists.
Agree that Zardes was crap.
FWIW, I haven't read too much after the match, but Sciaretta and ESPN both had Jozy as their MOTM
A lot of times people just rate players based on how it fits their agenda and not what actually happened. Anyone who watched that game and thought Jozy was poor is either a liar or doesn't know what they are talking about. No, it wasn't a transcendent show or anything, but there's zero question that he was the best and most effective of our front six at the very least.

I pulled up kids from my U12 team to my U14 team this season because numbers necessitated I do so (games where only 10 or 11 were healthy to play). And I did so after asking my DOC if that was allowed. Even got the kids new player cards and on the official state roster.
So basically, there is no rule against it.
Woof. 3 and out if that's anywhere close to correct
ONW, I'm not sure how old you are, but there really is no reason these days - unless you really are a footballing prodigy - to play up. The young kids have the academy program that groups the best players with the best players, and puts them in a competitive environment (with more of an emphasis on training over competitive, win or lose games) against other clubs' best players. Sure, there was a time when this was the only way of challenging a kid, but that's just not the case anymore.

No talk of 16 FIFA members being arrested this morning in Switzerland? I mean, yeah, not surprising. But the head of CONCACAF and CONMEBOL being 2 of them is pretty big news I think.
