Maybe if you guys would showcase liga MX Femenil more on your show, people in the U.S will consider going to the summer cup games. They have really good teams and more international players are drawn to go play over there. A lot of young talented Mexican American players that have graduated from UCL, etc. are playing there making the league grow and more competitive.
Europe is a bunch of countries, each with its own league, population density over a small area North America we have realistically 3 countries, 3 leagues, population density over massive area (we are almost 3 times the size!) Maybe if we regionalize leagues within NA, meaning multiple within the US/CAN/MEX that have their own league play and then come together for NA Champs League. If you can get maybe 6 leagues going? You'd have a start
I think it’s impossible to have a comparable competition like the champions league. Countries in concacaf just don’t have good female domestic league when there are barely any good men’s league.
For me, i find it very funny when pple say the nwsl has more draw or far competitive which i hear, but when u look the players going to nwsl are old players while players going to wsl are young talent or not wsl but in europe. And i can still bet if u take top 5 teams in europe n put them in nwsl to compete. I think you will see dominance
That's because there is nothing to compare to the champions league, it's the best club competition in football, and american players want to be part of that
The solution is quite simple. NWSL players from top to bottom must be paid salaries competitive with those at Chelsea. The talent drain is happening, let’s not kid ourselves. NWSL has got to stop it - by paying the players what they can get at places like Chelsea - before the trickle becomes a flood.
Chelsea normally only play in front of maybe 4,200 people. Gonna be weird for her to go from 16,000 in San Diego to that. I'd feel like the stadiums are empty or community college at that point
But then she gets to play in 30,000+ a fair few times a year. FA cup final was 77,000. The record attendance for womens champions league is 91,000. So it's not as clear cut as you're making out. She got introduced at 32,000 crowd.
This Is a Huge Problem As The BWSL & all European leagues are not competitive, & players games drop dramatically & get very slow playing in Europe. Are WNT players should play in the most competitive league NWSL PERIOD !!
The WSL games are pretty boring, unless it’s a Chelsea vs Arsenal game, there is no parity, pretty predictable. Nothing like the after dark NWSL drama.
Yes, it is a tipping point. The European teams are funded by the top teams there, they have far more money for signings than does the NWSL. I don't blame Girma going for the money, but it's not a good sign for the NWSL.
This is a result of roster rules more so than league preference yall. As far as I’m aware the NWSL hasn’t implemented a cash market that allows for top players to stay in the league. Ex: If soph wants to leave Portland, NWSL teams are literally only allowed to trade for her and since no one has enough pieces to trade, she only has one option and that’s to go to Europe where financial health is secondary. Soph was just one example but there are so many players this applies to
Because, as with so many other parts of society, money speaks loudly. The teams there are owned by the top men's teams in the world, they have far deeper pockets. I don't find that good, but I find it inevitable.
@ it’s good on a global scale. It makes the national team competition a lot better with players playing together during the season. If the game wants to grow more. It’s good for players to be in Europe competing under the global teams.
@@davidt3956it’s not just the money. It’s also the prestige. It would be like a European nfl league starting with lots of cash and opportunity - it would attract players but eventually the top talent will want to play for the cowboys or packers or Steelers or whatever, in the Super Bowl, in the big show. “It’s like the champions league every week” she said repeatedly. No it isn’t. Because the champions league is Chelsea vs Barca and Bayern vs Real Madrid and Lyon vs Arsenal and man city vs Juventus… Once those European teams could offer the same earning potential as the NWSL, top players will want to play for those clubs because that’s the heritage, that means more than playing for an NWSL franchise that was here one minute and gone the next.
no they won’t and no one is scared of that. nwsl teams still make more money than wsl teams and have better competition. that’s why the wsl is taking players from the nwsl, the development is not comparable but at the end of the day it hasn’t helped them dominate before and it won’t now
@transmatized They are scared and I learned that Sophia Smith and Swanson are both tracking interest in WSL.. the European league is going to dominate your dominant just a matter of time
poaching some of the best players is not going to help your league grow. beyond the couple of times your top 3 teams meet head to head, and the later stages of the UWCL, nobody really cares about your league. its so top heavy with pay 2 win super teams that its boring. same thing goes with the other euro leagues, especially Liga F. nobody wants to watch Barca beat up on nobodies all season. so gratz on all the super teams, nobody in the stands to watch them the majority of the time.
euros thinking that they somehow deserve these players because their brand of futbol is better. gtfo. im tired of this garbage. all your domestic leagues are BORING!!!!! am i supposed to respect a league that the winner (Chelsea) had to run up the score against a tomato can to take home the trophy? am i supposed to care about anybody but the top 2 or 3 teams? hell Liga F only has one team worth watching. is that helping grow the leagues/sport? overspending for US players is hurting the sport more than helping it. i watch plenty of Liga F/Fraun Bundesliga/WSL/Whatever the French League is calling itself now, and guess what, 90% of the time, THERES NO FANS IN THE STADIUMS. all you have is a few head to head matchups between the top domestic teams and the later stages of the UWCL. thats it. nothing against any player that wants to take that pay increase and play a meaningful game once a month. go for it. learn the boring WSL style of play and get trounced by Barca in UWCL. have fun.
@llama_mf No, they're talking, in that segment, about the NWSL. However, I admit I've also only seen the WSL referred to as the WSL. Thanks for the info.
Obviously CBS have the rights to NWSL so they are not going to be overly critical of it. WSL is more attractive because every USA player who has gone there said the coaching is much better and learned to play more technically and tactical and improved as players, so Americans wanting to reach their full potential want to go there. Also the women’s teams in the WSL are attached to legacy teams from the Premier League and that is a prestige NWSL with their recent teams cannot compete with. When most USWNT players grew up watching and supporting EPL teams, the chance to wear the shirt of these teams and playing in the iconic stadiums of these teams is a childhood dream. Then you add the Champions League and no salary caps and more money, American players are only staying in the NWSL for lifestyle reasons.
every usa player has not gone there and said that actually stop lying. it’s the OPPOSITE. coaches go to the nwsl and say that it is the most competitive league
There are only really three reasons: 1. Money. Apart from the salary cap, European teams are used to taking large losses to build player bases, it’s financially unhealthy but that’s the only way to exist there. So players like money. 2. Competition. Domestic Competition isn’t even remotely close, but champions league is on another level. Tbh it doesn’t get competitive until the later stages of the tourney but Barca/Lyon are the best (and most expensive) women’s teams period so wanting to compete against them is a no brainer. 3. Unfortunately the narrative of WoSo has become increasingly written through Europe. With the increased popularity and sheer size of football media in Europe there is just a systemic bias to pay more attention to whatever is most accessible and that’s champions/euros/etc so ballon dor/ fifpro/ best itw narratives are written by those east of the Atlantic by sheer volume (unless it’s literally a wc or Olympics year)
@@transmatized yes every player. When one uswnt players says the coaching is better and more technical and tactical and improved going to Europe, then you can question it. But 12 or 13 US,players say this like Press, Lavelle, Morgan, Lloyd, Mewis, Dunn, Krueger, Ertz, Horan, Heath, Fox, Fish etc all says exactly the same things it means it is true. Remember the women’s teams in the WSL have the same access to coaching and training expertise as the Premier League teams, no NWSL team has trainers better than Premier League teams. You can tell the NWSL coaching is bad by the primitive kick and rush counter football all the NWSL teams play. That is why when the USWNT got the highly successful NWSL coach Vlatko they were crap and then got the WSL coach Emma Hayes and because they were better coached with tactics and technical coaching they became a much stronger team. Female soccer in the US and NWSL unlike the men has developed in it’s own ecosystem because it was the best for so long as it was the only well funded program in the world of female soccer for so long. So you have this over Americans sports over reliance on athleticism, speed and power as part of the culture in female soccer in the USA and thus means the technical and tactical levels are much lower than Europe now that starting fund their programs use the expertise of the men’s game. And the US coach has told her players they need to go to Europe if they want to reach their full potential, because she doesn’t believe the tactical and technical level of the NWSL is not good enough. Plus being competitive doesn’t mean high quality. The English second division is more competitive than the Premier League, it doesn’t mean they are better, it just means there are more teams at the same level and that level may not be the best. So in the NWSL where play is pretty much just speed and powerful running it is going to be more competitive because it is more primitive basic style of soccer. But Chelsea in the WSL play soccer at its highest level from physical, tactical and technical level so harder for teams to match them. That is why when Chelsea played NWSL teams they were beating them easy because they couldn’t NWSL teams couldn’t live with their technical and tactical play.
@@ErastoDarien I think your answers are an over simplified explanation. 1. Money is a big reason because WSL teams have no salary caps, but most WSL teams make a profit, because they have biggest League TV domestic deal in female football Europe, if not the world. But unlike NWSL they have international TV deals because the teams are linked to big globally popular clubs. And the fact that the Premier League wanted to take control of the WSL, shows how much money the WSL teams are making. Arsenal play in from 40 to 50,000 crowds regularly at home, so WSL teams are not making loses, which is why they are breaking transfer records because they have the disposable cash. 2. Competitiveness is over emphasised by NWSL fans. For players it doesn’t outrank, playing higher quality soccer, getting better coaching to improve you as a player. That is an another attraction to USA players, and opportunity to get better coached and become a better player. It is not just about the Champions League, you will be playing for a legacy team, in historical iconic stadiums like Anfield, Old Trafford, Emirates, Tottenham Stadium Stanford bridge and Villa Park weekly in front of huge crowds and the FA cup where you could play at Wembley in front of 80,000 fans. That is glamour that the NWSL cannot compete with because England has a soccer culture and history.
@@Delboy0 1. That’s LITERALLY wrong what are you talking about. Virtually every single WSL team pays more in wages alone than their entire revenue which includes the loans (group income) given to them by their parent club. Deloitte literally released a report last summer analyzing their profitability, and the losses year over year are getting FACTUALLY larger. Also, the current WSL domestic TV deal is worth approx. 84 mill divided over five years (so 17mill annually), compared to the 60 mill per season of the NWSL so you’re literally lying dude lol All of this is free to read btw so go ahead. 2. Sure it doesn’t but “playing higher quality football”? lol outside of the top 4 the quality in the WSL drops SIGNIFICANTLY. So, any American joining a top 4 side will only play 3 competitive teams out of the 11. If that’s playing better quality to you then I’m wasting my time here lmao. As I said, only champions league is comparable. And huge crowds? Outside of Chels/ManU/Ars the attendance is not there. Literally half of the league has a lower average attendance than the absolute lowest in the NWSL. On top of that, 7 teams in the NWSL have an avg attendance greater than 10k, in the WSL? It’s only 2 (Ars/ManU in 2024). So much for the “soccer culture”. The glamour of historic stadiums is a plus and the coaching is generally better sure but again, better coaching to play against bad WSL teams (non-top4) is not useful, playing the other bigs in champions tho is a diff story altogether so nothing from my original statement changes.

no, this is only because the narrative of WoSo has increasingly been written by Europe/through the european lens (champions league/euros/etc).

All of nwsl team are not better than the three biggest teams in Wsl for example Chelsea, man city, arsenal playing in nwsl will surely win the American League
Champions league is the highest football in the world, mens or womens . No amount of razzmatazz is going to undo that. In terms quality of football alone champions league final > world cup final .
Naomi is incredible talent. Nobody believed that centre back would break transfer record at 1.1 million dollars!!!!

All of nwsl team are not better than the three biggest teams in Wsl for example Chelsea, man city, arsenal playing in nwsl will surely win the American League
Champions league is the highest football in the world, mens or womens . No amount of razzmatazz is going to undo that. In terms quality of football alone champions league final > world cup final .
