AFC Tournament Scores

Is anybody else getting nauseated by the Dalglish love-fest on here? Whenever they win Moosh/MB and all his cronies get on here and brag and go on and on about how they are so many steps better than any other 04 team. When they lose, all the excuses come flying. I rank Dalglish tops but the annoying back and forth is sickening.

Dalglish is a great team but the comment about being one player away from competing with the top 2-3 03 teams was just ignorant.

In defense, I doubt it was a Dalglish parent.

Daglish should play the new top 03 team, Fever. Could you imagine the parents on the sideline? Now, that would be crazy!

Er, didnt Dalglish play Juve quite close in a tourney few months back, 3 to 0?

One thing is for sure is the 03' age group IMO no where near as competive as the the 02' div the top 10 in 02' is very tough compared to the top 10 03' division hell only the top 5 are somewhat close in skill so im a little more inclined to be more impressed with the SRSA and DTS competing well in the 02' division vs the top 04' competing in the 03' age group. Hell those 02' girls are damn near a 1ft to 2ft taller than most 03' and 04' lol some big girls in that age.


btw ive seen FC grubb play and those girls are way to big and fast for SRSA and DTS on a 11 v 11 field, and SRSA and DTS parents know that, they can say what the want but it wont happen.

Er, and your point is? Just because the score was only 3-0 what does that mean? Not to take anything away from Dalglish because they are in fact a good team, however just because the score was 3-0 what does that prove? Juve had lots of shots, they didn't go and that is soccer for you. Did you ever stop to consider that maybe since we were playing a younger team, our girls didn't want to beat up on them? Did you ever stop to consider that maybe our girls just didn't feel like playing that day (that's what my DD told me). Have you considered the fact that maybe we were missing some key players? A lot of factors could have went into that score. I have absolutely nothing against Dalglish at all, I've watched them play and they are a good team but in the same tournament in the same bracket, what was the score of the Juve games against the same opponents that Dalglish played? Juve vs. Lady Aztecs 03 was 10-1 while Dalglish won 3-0, Juve vs. FCD East was 8-0, while Dalglish won 2-1 and Juve vs. OK TXN was 5-2 while Daglish lost 2-0. Please sir, don't try to discount our team just to make another team seem better or should I say based on that one game. Our girls are 8 and 9 years old and at any given game, they will play up or down depending on the competition. We don't try to down play the efforts of any team, we also don't brag about how well we thought we played. We lost 1-0 to DTS this past weekend. We played ok and we don't discount the fact that DTS was as strong as ever. Their goals just didn't go and we were fortunate for that. It's just the way the game goes and not every game will be a blow out. No offense to LA03, FCD, or OK TXN, I was just attempting to prove a point so please don't take this personal. Master Bates, do you feel that Dalglish somehow struggled against those above mentioned teams in that tourney because the scores were pretty darn close?

Dalglish would have still easily won all of those games without my daughter. My daughter contributed a little bit, but they didn't need my daughter to win any of those games. None of the games were even close, although Juventus fought hard to the end. Daughter made lots of new friends and the parents were really nice. Great tournament in my opinion.

I Know You're Trying to Be DIPLOMATIC Here, but that's Not Exactly Accurate...Correct me if I'm Wrong, but your DD went to the Bench when Dalglish was up on Juventus 3-0...Then Juventus Scores 2 Quick Goals & your DD is Placed Back into the Game...Final Score 5-2 Dalglish...

No, they didn't "Need" your DD to Win, Necessarily, but to Make it Seem as if they'd have "Easily" Won Anyways ISN'T Accurate At All...

I think it's fair to say that Dalglish just came out flat in the 2nd half. (My daughter included). Girls weren't getting to balls as quickly as they were in the 1st half. They eventually got back on track and finished strong. My daughter scored one goal early and after that, I didn't think she had that big of an affect on the game. The one thing you have to give Dalglish credit for, is that they are strong from top to bottom. I just don't see any weak spots on that team.

2ddgotskillz - please dont be paranoid I'm commenting on how Dalglish played well against a great juve black team. Your coach was going nuts on the sideline in that game so don't give me the old "didn't want to beat up on younger kids" line. Neither do I need a PM explaining the goings on at Juve, I'm not interested.

Duece is being a little misleading with the explanation. When Dalglish did turn it back on they scored a couple of goals to put the game out of reach, She did come back in but it was actually another player who scored those goals. The true strength of the team lies in their ability to move the ball and the fact that they have strong players who can score goals in multiple positions. Juve is a stronger team than the score suggested. Just putting one player in and having her go score would not have worked. And I am not telling how we did it. As for the 03 situation. I do think Dalglish can break the top 5. Juve was competative but not a game that we were going to win. DTS 03 was a good experience and would love to play them again but in no way was that game competative. That is the one team that we have played that we were outplayed at every facet of the game. Their ability to hold a shap was better, the ball movement was faster, we were second to every spot and ball. It took everything our team had to keep the score under 10. They give us something to shoot for even if we don't reach it.

No one is on drugs here. I also watched the game and instead of looking at ball bounces, I was looking at the midfield battle and tactics employed in the game. DT South did dominate but why and where did they dominate? Dt South Adames dominated the Dalglish midfield and that is why I stated that Dalglish needed a midfield playmaker to compete with the top 5 03 teams. DT South held the ball the entire game in midfield. The Dalglish forwards never saw the ball.

A team has to have goals and if you are competing against 03 teams, then your goal is to knock off one of the top 5. Whether Dalglish can do it or not, we will just have to wait and see. I am not strictly a Dalglish fan, I like good soccer and coaches who teach good soccer. So Solar Kennington, Dt North, DT Bennett, Texas Black Gold are also teams I like to watch.

Dalglish easily play the best soccer of he 04s! Ball possession and width.
DTN rely on their physical approach, which is effective.

That battle was just lost in the midfield, it was lost all over the field. You give us too much credit. It was definitely an OMG moment. We need more that a mid playmaker. Dalglish will have to pick up their speed of play. I think we play faster than many teams but no where near the speed that dts play.

You're Preaching to the Choir, in my Case...Can we just Stop PRETENDING that Having 1 of Solar-Kennington's BETTER (Former??) Players Isn't a PLUS???...For Dalglish OR Any Other '04 Team, it's OBVIOUSLY Going to Make Them Better...That Goes w/Out Saying...To Suggest Otherwise is Being Disingenuous...

To Say they'd have "Easily" Won Anyways is ALSO Misleading...Winning & Winning "Easily" Are DIFFERENT Things...Dalglish & their Team Parents have EARNED the Right to Beat their Chests a Bit...I'm just Asking for Some PERSPECTIVE Here...

This Deucee's daddy is a piece of work isn't he? Dalglish completely dominated Juve in the Final, apart from a 10 minute spell when Juve gave it all they had. Maybe he wasn't there for the first half where Dalglish could have easily been 5-0 up after 20 minutes. Juve crossed the half way mark around 4 times the entire half. Solar kenn player was just one of several who turned on the heat that afternoon. What a very silly man.

And if you want to talk about development, how can a team with 4-5 Rowdies players lose 4-1 to Liverpool's 3rd team? Shocking!

You seem to have some major hate towards the Texans. Probably a bad experience from your past. If you really want to talk about development, tell me how many current players on LP Dalglish are from the original team? 3 maybe 4? Most of his original players have been moved to lower teams or left.

The current Dalglish team is mostly made up of studs from other teams who were already great players. LW is a great coach but he has been an even better recruiter. There are other good developmental coaches in the league. He has just done a better job attracting top girls away from other clubs. This blog has probably helped also since everybody wants to be on the "top" team.

The bigger challenge as a club will be for LP to gain national recognition and attain ECNL status in the older age groups. Despite what we would like to think, the 04 girls group is just a small piece of what LP is trying to do.
