I'm pretty sure as someone mentioned earlier this is them trying to get out of the Women's Academy circle. Originally they had a couple women's teams if I recall correctly, but this is them passing the buck and eventually phasing out their name completely
Gosh they’re so ambitious and committed
But wish we got some GAM out of it. System is broken when we train these kids and then lose them for free.
Sure. But for now, happy for Gio and hope he turns out well for the U.S.
Didn’t he join them like two years ago???? I swear this is the most drawn out, worst kept secret/not secret move ever.
I mean you can't hate on a 17 year old kid. We wait till they're at least 19 to do that here.
Well, we do have his homegrown rights. No idea what those rules will be when Gio Reyna considers coming to MLS, but maybe he will be grandfathered in so we can get something out of it if he doesn't come to NYCFC.
Think when Gio Reyna considers coming to MLS will 1) NYCFC have its own stadium? 2) Will Claudio Reyna still be the Sporting Director?
I wonder if we'll see Gio get some run in any tourneys with the USMNT. Never too early to bring him into a camp.
Or cap tie him since he also holds a Portuguese passport.
All across the world, every Portuguese football fan just spontaneously started laughing and none of them know why.
If he went to Portugal, would that be enough for them to finally beat us at a World Cup?
Watched the game, NYC was obviously the better team from my POV. The Haak goal was nice, seemed like it was a defensive breakdown, two defenders basically stood there for him to run through, basically gave him a semi-clear path into the 6 yard box. The whole team played well I felt, at least in my opinion.
