Booooo send his arse to an academy in Europe


I watched a video on this last night, apparently they were going to send him to a 2nd division team in Belgium (Lommel SK).

This way Philly gets to wet their beak, but how much better the development is remains to be seen. He's on their MLS Next team currently. His brother starts for the big club.

There is a chance he's shipped off to Girona when he's 16 though.

And I get that you don’t have to be a great league to consistently funnel players over to the big boys (most South American leagues are arse)

I would just rather him play against kids of similar talent
