Houston Dynamo are doing it again:
I thought during the Fall that their 2011 age group might be weaker, but oh no, this club doesn’t really have weak age groups anymore.
I’ve seen real improvement from like virtually every prospect in the age group this season.
They might not have a true top prospect in this group, but between Oscar Olsen, Chris Gonzalez, Peyton James, Dax Munson, and Will Moddelmog they have a bunch of guys who aren’t too far off that. Chances are at least one or two will pan out. There are others too such as Kenzy Pierre, Gideon Gomez, Justus Morris, Ryan Truby who also show solid potential.
One thing I really like about this academy is the kids are athletic. A lot of natural athletes. A lot of people will roll their eyes, but there are some other academies that’ll win a lot more youth games and the pro upside of their players just isn’t the same.
It’s funny because Dynamo fans think I’m obsessed with hating on their club. No, I really am not. I just wish they’d realize they’re mediocre at the first team level. Whatever they’re trying there doesn’t work. Lean into that you arguably have like a top 3 talent pool in the country and start integrating these talents into your first team.
I’m not saying integrate the 2011’s, but this club has long past proven that the good age groups are a fluke. It’s 2007, it’s 2008, it’s 2009, it’s 2010, now it’s 2011. It’s proven. They’re becoming a youth juggernaut. The talent is there. Start utilizing it in your first team.
Can’t focus on all the negative about LAFC. What a win for the Houston Dynamo! They get their revenge after the first match against LAFC. Biggest win of the season imo!
🐺 ONE PACK. ONE CITY. FOREVER HOUSTON.
