Uar Bernard and Joshua Weru put up insane numbers at the International Pathway Program Pro Day. If Dallas wants to find upside in different places, these are the kind of prospects the front office should be watching.
They are paying the consequences of the lack of leaders, players with good technique and confidence in the youngsters. In Italy, Lamine Yamal and Musiala would probably play in Serie B to gain experience. And that can't be.
