I do wonder how much they will be hindered by the MLS. Even now we see "big names" like Demsey and Bradley getting lured back and playing in a low level league can't be great for development for US players.
Klinsmann even said that he'd rather have the boys playing in Europe in the best leagues. Unless MLS steps it up big time they will be a big fish in a little pond.

Klinsman can take a run at some more german kids with American Fathers though...
