1. Which uncapped European-based prospect is most likely to become a USMNT regular?
2. Disregarding Pulisic, what American seems to have the tools to succeed in the Premier league and what attribute is most important?
3. Who are some young American players playing in Europe that no one is talking about?
4. How do most US youngsters find their way to Europe? Are there a lot of European scouts at DA showcases & tournaments like the Dallas Cup? Or is it something else?
5. Is it better to get playing time for a low-level club, or to train with the best of the best? Basically, in terms of club status, is it better to be Jonathan Amon, or Tim Weah?
6. Which young American are you most worried will choose another country over the US, a la Jonathan Gonzalez?
