You're that old? Can you still see the players on the field ok?

Great win for Dynamo and they have some good players. Fact still remains that they took at least 1 impact 99 player. I am sure he did not travel with them for the sunsine and to work on his tan. The should play the tournament with their team, because they will not be able to use him against the bandits and some of the other local teams.

Lby, aren't you the cute 1! Now, put down that Twinkie or I'll get out my cane and chase you down for a spanking!

you think not? ask the 99' ASG Gold team about that one! or even the 96' DTR team whats it like without "00" there???

ASG: Not a good example---That team was not the same after several strong players left and the one "special" player was left on the team...ASG was not the same (and had some losses) even with him still playing for them. You need more than one strong player to be successful.

96 DTR is just as bad as an example as they lost several players also.

BS that ONE player was THE goal scorer on that team and the main reason the were undefeated because he was just a pure scoring machine!
and the ASG kid another example he was the kid that did all the scoring sure other great players help but those are examples of IMPACT players that just get it done even on an 11 player squad! i know it's hard to swallow but the truth is the truth especially in the case of the 96's the other two players that left are "good" players also but "00" is something ultra special!

Yo 'mega- you should check your facts before popping off that the '99 is THE goal scorer on the 98 Solar team. Unless, you watch every game and count the scores player for player, you are just assuming...and we know what that does for you and me! He is indeed the BOMB but to say he is THE goal scorer is not entirely true. They posted 93 + some odd goals in the classic league w/o him last season and to date are not trending that high this year. But there is no arguement here that he is indeed a playmaking goal scorer...and congrats to DT'00 for whatever they achieve. They were built the same way and deserve all they get1

let me clarify...... when the "kid was playing with the 99' ASG Gold team! he moved up to challenge himself and is doing very well he's an outstanding impact player! hope that clarifies my comment? my whole point period is that..... yes of course congrats to the DT/Dynamo 00' team for playing up and winning especially outside of NTX!!! but it does tarnish it somewhat to find out that a superstar 99' kid helped out! period!

I guess this is where must agree to disagree. Of the 3 players that left 2 have made the move to the 95 Jrs team and got some playing time and the player you are referring to has not. Maybe all the FCD coaches are wrong but the other two players seem to have made more of an impact. With that being said all 3 players are, dare I say, great players, any coach would be a better coach with these players.

True10, you are making the point regarding impact players and age. By the time kids are U16, the pool of players diminishes significantly vs U11. The available talent achieves parity and the team concept becomes realized. At younger ages, U10 and under, there is so much mediocre talent that a single impact player can seat the pace and tone of an entire team. Not so much at the top, but definately the case for the middle and bottom teams.

are you serious??? yea two players play with the 95's(U15 the original U14 juniors roster) and ol' "00" is rostered on that team but you are correct he doesn't really play with that team much mainly cause he plays with the U16 and U18 squads!!!

Yeah he's serious, have you ever seen 95 Jr's play? 00 does come off the bench plays a few minutes & then replaced unless something has changed between Fall season & now.

So your saying he is seeing limited playing time because he is playing with U16 & U18? take a look at there academy roster online it shows several of the 95 players have played with U16 as developmental players (DP) but 00 is not one of them.

I agree he is a good player but still has a lot to work on & I'm sure there coaching staff knows that.

what are you guys smoking? diesel or crack? 00 now #9 plays with the U16 and U18 because yea he's just that good!!! he only plays with the U15's to supplement play time but mainly plays with the U16 and sometimes with the U18 squad only one of the 3 kids talked about played against the monterrey mexico team with both the U16 and U18 teams and it wasn't neither of the two you mentioned! before you guys get in here poppin' off especially about ol' 00 make sure you have your info straight especially when mine comes from being directly related!

You didn't have your info straight either but still had to make the comment. We are all equal but some are more, right?

let me clarify that he is a starter on the 95' squad and matter of fact led the team in scoring in this last Disney showcase tournament! maybe somebody has told you wrong info or your going by the old he said/she said motto of info? but i'm pretty sure only one of the 3 DTR now FCD juniors kids has played with all 3 juniors teams and that is ol' 00 now #9 !!!

lol true, i was fishing on that one especially seeing that you(the OP) conveniently left out the fact that you guys had a 99' DTS player?? did the pot just call the kettle black???

Omega-
BTW (GP) means games played.

Don't know who is on what squad and doing this or that and not even sure what it has to do with the 00 dynamo using at least 1 99 player so they can play up. However, I do know the club thinks that 00 is a "very" special player that is headed for very big things. I think hyndman is one of the most skilled youth players I have seen but if you need goals I also know that you will be playing 00. Regardless of what you have to say about his skills or what he need to work on, he has a gift in soccer. If you put a ball in front of him he has proven to be unstoppable. So back to the original topic, Congrats to dynamo but the usual practice of playing up and then using older players to solidify the squad certianly takes away something.

I never said he does not play much. I have seen the u15 Jrs play several times and he has played most if not the entire game. Yes I know you are some how related to #9 as you have mentioned that several times. I not related to any of the players but a good friend of a parent of one of the players. I have not seen who is rostered for the u16s or u18s but the last time I talked to my friend he was proudly stating, as he should be, that his bb and 4 others were playing parttime with the u16s. Now if #9 is playing with the 18s then good for him. He is a player who has the size and skill to be not overwhelmed by older comp. I we hijacked this thread enough. A new thread might be called for but I doubt it.

Once again congrats to the '00 boys great job.

Great coaches identify natural tendencies in good players and put them in a position to succeed.

Yes, at this age you could take a team of very talented kids, put them on the field together, and they would be most of the teams.

plantit wrote:Great coaches identify natural tendencies in good players and put them in a position to succeed.

Natural tendencies... were talking about 11yr olds right? Those tendencies are usually picking their noses and scratching their arses at the wrong time. It's pretty sad that at U11, we pigeon hole kids to certain positions based on their 9-10 yr old tendencies. Don't kid yourself, these great coaches need WINS to justify the $2500 you pay every year. Player development be damned... and in eyes of the soccer gods, that's bad coaching.

Somewhat yes. I know Marcio has been introduce to these kids via at least one practice session .PP is still their main practice coach and I believe he is the one at the games but the switch to Marcio seems to be in the work.

they did that last year too. He is apparently a great skills coach and they use him to prep the teams for CL. The 99's then got crafty. I did hear that marciodinho will be the coach though.

if your reffering to the 99's then it's no introduction they know him very well!

Craft is not involved with those dynamo and is holding every practice with what will be the second Texan team....
