so theres no physical attribute for the soccer player as the level of play increases, hs-college-pro? that short little outstanding goalie at the hs level has a shot at manchester united?, that big oversized hs defender has the speed to play barca? in trying to put soccer in the skill only category, you guys are kind of arguing against yourselves anyway. in hoops & nfl, you gotta not only have the skill, but gotta have the body style to survive, so, to me, its more exclusive. ....what am i missing besides getting this thread way off track?
