I think my starting lineup was unclear. I don't mean u16 teams I mean they spend their time under the age of 16 in the USA. Every one of those players, besides Richards, was getting playing time within a year of moving to Europe. I edited it to make it more clear. And yeah, you can't be a world class footballer without playing with the best players and coaches under the biggest pressure. Trying to get the best opportunities you can to be a better athlete doesn't have any bearing on what country you should represent, just like in the case of Gu.
