Don't think that's true mate. Although he was an Everton fan, he was always going to sign for the rs. I remember officiating at an u14 cup final he played in ( he was 12 at the time) and a member of the Welsh FA told me he had about 10 clubs after him but he will be signing for them. I think he scored 4 goals in that final and you could tell then how good he was going to be.
I totally agree. Can you imagine if a player from India made it big, the marketing potential would be immense. I believe that getting the best talent into the team should be based on ability alone and blind to the colour and background of the player involved, but a canny club would be keeping an eye out for a kid with an Indian or Pakistani background to just hoover up in either of those countries and their diaspora.
If Brazillian talent was better than American talent, then why are all these European clubs in Germany and Italy targeting American players and the MLS over the other leagues in the Americas? In Germany, all the top clubs such as Bayern, Dortmund, Leipzig, Schalke, Hoffenheim, etc all have Americans on their roster and the Americans are now the go-to market for German clubs, seeing how Monchengladbach got Joe Scally in 2021.

I'd have Pulisic over Richarlison every day
Reyna is probably as good as all of those at u20 level bar Vinicius. I mean he's literally keeping Reinier out of the team.
It pisses me off that Landon was so laissez-faire about his career and just let MLS jerk him around too. He should have worked to get to Europe between 2006 and 2010.

Brazillian talent has dried up considerably in recent years and it's a shame about their decline. Argentina, Uruguay and Colombia are barely producing any talent either now. If we take the Right-Back position, America currently has Dest, Scally, Bryan Richards competing for that spot, and they all play for top teams in Europe.
This is Juventus:
Italian soccer giant Juventus is so impressed with its 1st ever American player, Weston McKennie, that it's preparing to raid the MLS to find more US stars
Young American soccer players are the hottest property in the European game right now, and Juventus wants to capitalise.
They're world champions at U17 level
Pulisic isn't overrated at all. He's genuinely top class when he plays. The problem is the playing part. He's hurt way too much.
You definitely have because half of them haven't done anything. If you were making this list 3 years ago you'd have put Neres and Malcom on it too. If there is one thing people are good at it is overrating young Brazilians. They don't all end up world class.
