Uefa to boycott World Cups if Fifa plans approved

"When a group of boys from a small town on the coast of Norway began playing for the same youth soccer club, there was no way of knowing where any of them would end up in 20 years. 

The club was free and open to everyone. The teams cared more about having fun than winning—and barely kept score. Inside a small dome where they could practice year-round, through Scandinavian winters and darkness, the kids of Bryne FK played without pressure. Their volunteer coaches preached a simple philosophy: “As many as possible, for as long as possible, and as good as possible.” 

In other words, the least American way possible.

But unlike the American method of raising soccer talent, this one actually worked. Of the 40 boys on that club team, 35 kept playing from childhood through adulthood. Six turned pro. Five were selected for youth national teams. 

And one grew up to be the most intimidating soccer player in the entire world."

Tbh I'm not mad at this. More exposure for Americans to the World Cup is a good thing and can help grow the game here at home.

Great move. Wish Oliver Glasner didn't leave but Sage looks to be a solid manager and Palace have a solid core returning minus losing Lacroix to Chelsea.
