Professional Soccer Pathways

Sure thing Nico.

That’s the thing, trolling only makes trolls look bad, not the people they’re trying to troll.

No - it definitely makes you look bad.

I’m not sure what is funnier, you thinking a terrible gold cup performance with a bunch of former college players is a feather in your cap, talking about the big 5 European leagues while mentioning the championship, calling the championship the EFL or the thorough investigative work you went through to confirm a guy I found on twitter in 30 seconds with very clearly no college soccer reporting history.

You’re the 90 year old blissfully driving the wrong way down the highway right now having the time of your life.

Lol. As the kids say, “You mad bro.” You seem big mad.  You’re still going and going like the Nico Energizer Bunny. Keep chasing. Oh and good job correcting your previous post about Big 4 to Big 5.

And yes, when you try to dupe people like Pakuni, or Jes, or Sultan or whomever, it doesn’t make any of them look bad, only you. But you already knew that.

Majority of people come here or elsewhere to read a few threads, ignore most, and maybe make a post or two. They don’t have the time or interest for trolls or to decipher if someone is trying to dupe them.

You took the time to go to Twitter, typed in “College Soccer Sucks,” clicked “Latest” tab and copied it to here. Then when called out on it, to play it cool you did it again later. i’ve seen some sad/funny things here in my time, but that’s up there. Free Nico.

There’s room for USL. You’ll be okay.

I debated whether or not to include ligue 1 in my top 4/5 leagues (in addition to the prem, bundesliga, la liga and serie a). Either way, it still doesn’t change the overall total players from two to two. Once again, nice try on the “gotcha” moment.

Also, I don’t give two craps about the USL. I only brought it up because I think it would be a smart business decision for them to go after and younger players. Maybe it would give them some sort of advantage over MLS.

Sounds like something someone who “got got” would say lol.

“You can troll other people, but me! No one trolls me”

“I think he just searched college and soccer and terrible. That’s how he found Nico!”

No shi* buddy. Glad it took you half a day to figure that out.

There were 137 college players in the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup. 76 different schools. 21 different National Teams. And add many coaches to that too. Some knockout round coaches are coaching college soccer teams in the NCAA Tourney this weekend. More than half of the teams in each round through the semifinals, had college soccer experience on their teams.

Just another example of the mix and variety of professional pathways.

(I don’t think the MUBB program is going anywhere any time soon.)
