Comments about ‘Real Salt Lake takes midfielder first in draft, seeks forward help’

RSL should look at there b-team in the Ogden outlaws for some signing at forward and back-up keeper.

Why?

I know some sick rec team that has a forward who just barely scored his first goal

I dont think so there is very little talent in the pdl... VERY LITTLE

to pick up some talent from the local teams. If the coaches thought there were some MLS ready players there they would pick them up.

I was waiting for someone to continue the rumor that Van Nistelroy was coming. How disappointing.

Really? Tell that to Nick Cardenas. Was picked up by the Kansas City Wizards in the draft.

They say the Real is talentless too, just a little quiter now that they won the MLS cup.

-----------------

Two-thirds of the guys drafted by MLS every year have PDL experience.

Here is what I would try to get as a DP if I were RSL a 2nd division European player. I have a few examples (I don't know how much it would cost though).

Christian Stuani plays for a 2nd division Spanish team (Albacete) that is in the middle of their table has played in Serie A, he is 23yo, and has 11 goals in 17 starts with 1 sub.

Natalio plays for a 2nd division Spanish team (Murcia) that is at the bottom of their table, he has started 16 games with 3 subs and scored 7 goals, he is 25yo.

Rolando Bianchi plays for a 2nd division Italy team(Torino) that is in the middle of their table, he has started 27 games with 1 sub and scored 9 goals and he is 26yo.

Sami Allagui plays for a 2nd division German team(SPVGG Greuther Furth) that is at the bottom part of their table, he has started 18 games and scored 7 goals, he is 23yo.

Christopher Nthe plays for a 2nd division German team(SPVGG Greuther Furth) that is at the bottom part of their table, he has started 13 games with 5 subs, and scored 7 goals, he is 22yo.

Kevin Constant plays for a 2nd division French team(Chateauroux) that is at the bottom part of their table, he has started 18 games with 1 sub, he has scored 7 goals and he is 22yo.

Nicolas Fauvergue plays for a 2nd division French team(Strasbourg) that is at the bottom part of their table, he has started 16 games with 1 sub, he has scored 8 goals and he is 25yo.

Anthony Modeste plays for a 2nd division French team(Angers) that is in the middle of their table, he has started 19 games and scored 13 goals, and he is 21yo.

Sebastian Ribas plays for a 2nd division French team(Dijon FCO) that is in the middle of their table, he has started 18 games with 2 subs and scored 13 goals, and he is 21yo.

Mads Junker plays for a 2nd division Dutch team(Roda JC Kerkrade) that is at the bottom of their table, he has started 16 games with 3 subs and scored 9 goals, and he is 28yo.

This last one plays in a first division in Equdor:

Claudio Bieler plays for a 1st division team in Equador(LDU Quito) last year he started 41 total games and scored 30 goals, he is 26yo.

While I agree that many of your listed players could be outstanding in the United States I would agrue thatmost of those you listed would never come to the U.S to play, they are all very young and looking for soccer futures in Europe not in the U.S.
I agree with Kries on this, keep looking through-out South America for talent. Its there and it costs much less in U.S. dollars.

What wrong with the US?
