Another academy kid sold to Europe for a fee. Cool. Great for the club's finances I guess.
But at some point I'd like to root for a team that KEEPS its best players for more than 18 months. We develop talent better than almost any MLS club and have nothing to show for it.
We're basically a farm team for European clubs and it's getting old. I want to win trophies, not read about our former players winning them somewhere else.
At least acknowledge that without the sell-on fees this club probably doesn't exist. MLS economics are rough.
