WHY farm teams are destroying football

Спорт

Farm teams are nothing new in sport, but their prevalence in football is increasing with the emergence of Red Bull's growing empire and heavy investment from the City Football Group. These smaller, sister clubs are being used to create an edge in the competitive scouting market. Is this the end of football as we know and love it? We take a closer look at farm teams and whether they are distorting competition.

These clubs actually add value to the game and provide so much more people with opportunities, not to mention their success is due to merit and having a good system, unlike psg and man city who just flood the market with cash and damage the already inflated transfer market.

    It's valid to mention, that in the Red Bull case, they have a really advanced system for tactics. Bragantino for a example, ever since the acquisition, plays against way stronger teams toe to toe because of philosofy that came from abroad. Which has shown and enriched the Brazilian approach to how to build a team and its tactics. Saying that footbal as we love is going to die is just a childish nostalgia when compared to the amount of opportunity players from poorer countries get. Yet, indeed, money flows mostly in one direction but knowledge flows in both directions. And seeing new teams thriving on leagues that were closed for upcoming projects, is a breath of fresh air and excitement.

His anti-farm team argument just boils down to 'Things used to be different and I dont want change!' The only problem is that the big clubs are often owned by totalitarian regimes or oligarchs, that's where the issue is.

    The farm team system in the US works because those teams will forever be consigned to their respective tier as there is no promotion/relegation. Their fans get a kick out of watching the new talent "before they hit the big times" knowing full well that the players are there in transition only. However (in football/soccer), if I have my main team in PSL and my tier 2 team in Finland's 1st Division (to guarantee my new talent to get play time in a 1st Division environment) and that team is then relegated to Finland's 2nd Div, the experiment busts. Makes sense that the big clubs are looking at the US' MLS as it provides stability for the farm level it would be for that big main club.

    What is killing football is Media package hijacking , that keeps fans poor from ,paying multiple companies just to follow one team. Farm clubs feeds down into grass roots . With more tiers of competition , clubs need larger squads to compete , UEFA and FA's have only made this worse, not only is it up to Governments to regulate , like Bundesliga fan ownership of shares and wage structure have been destroyed by financial abuse to where the money goes. That is the main problem with corporations and billionaire ownership's who do it for the profit. As US franchise does.

    What you people failed to realize is that this whole “more tiers of competition” IS NOT FINANCIALLY SUSTAINABLE. You really think that fans owning the clubs can financially save the club, you are dead wrong. In fact, your country’s economy is going downhill if you publicly fund these clubs. The only thing that is going to finally save your club is rich owners whether you like it or not. The US franchise, with the likes of NBA team, nfl teams and MLB teams and MLS teams and NHL teams are more financially stable, compare to the likes of English teams in the lower divisions, they are desperate for funding.

    At the start of this video, I thought, what was the problem with this? Clubs in smaller countries get support and bigger teams that can provide economic chances get players. I think the problem is aggregating most of a country's top talents in a few academies which I do think causes a crowding out effect. There's also the problem of talent being almost bounded by the parent club and that creates barriers to scouting I think. I'm a Manchester United fan and I wondered why can't our scouts find someone unknown talent anymore like Javier Hernandez who we found just before he blew up at the world cup. So in a way it's like cornering off parts of the talent market.

    United is the most popular club in the world and their academies are everywhere already. By "everywhere", I mean partner clubs all over the world. They don't need to buy other club because everyone would wanna fly to Carrington right away. I'm a Chelsea fan and we have similar practices. We don't have "subsidiary clubs", but we have good relations with Vitesse and AC Milan to name a few. Domestically, we have good relation with Derby, Aston Villa, or Arsenal (surprisingly). When you loan players and sell your players to some clubs you "favored", that literally means partnership going on. Chelsea is starting its campaign on Bundesliga teams, but it's still a tough thing to do. But again, United is far more historical and legendary than Chelsea, but Chelsea kinda "lucked out" as we turned into powerhouse before the massive digitalization of media. Before Roman bought it and brought Mourinho and other players, we already won European trophies and participated in UCL for several times. Roman only "made sure" that we're consistently at the top 4. With that being said, Chelsea got away from memetic "LMFAO plastic", "lol, no history", "Oil Money", etc. The insults were there at the beginning, but City came and took away our "burdens" lol. All in all, United and Chelsea don't need to buy other clubs, because we already have brandings all over the world. In South East Asia Chelsea already made bigger fanbase than Arsenal. City have money yes, but some players find both money and prestige. That's why, once they snatched the talent, they risked it by giving massive salaries so players would stay loyal. Aguero, David Silva, De Bruyne, Mbappe, Thiago Silva, all stayed on Oil Money clubs because not many clubs come to bring some offer. Clubs like Real, Bayern, Chelsea know how not to turn themselves into today's Barcelona.

    Yup, for development of talent, the farming system allows unknown players to progress and be scouted. His “downside” was that it diminishes local football (Manchester City etc.). the cheaper transfers from farming associated clubs overshadows regional and local players. If done repeatedly over many fcs, country’s leagues become foreigner dominated and diminish participation of locals in their own league’s clubs. This is relevant for national teams. However it can be argued that the local players simply get sent elsewhere like the Bundesliga which could be more suited for their development as a young player. It’s up to you how to see it.

    @@kikilala4639 Okay I see what he means now. As far as youth systems in Europe, I know it would be cheaper to just coach a local kid than it would be to pay a foreign players way to another country, house and feed him, teach him another language/provide a translator, and coach him. Are lower leagues pulling from farm teams instead of youth academies and would it not be better to just pull your local talent up? I ask because with the global brand of the top leagues in Europe, giants have prepared international dream teams, and the demand for silverware and international audience has taken over to the point local fans aren't "needed". I think anyone who wants to see their local talent would go to matches with local talent, I.e. the local matches that aren't part of the international market (second and third division sides and even further). For clarification, I see players like Lingaard, Sancho, Foden, Walker, Kane, Alexander Arnold, and Mount as extremely popular and liked because they're English players. However, they're amazing footballers that stand above the rest of the English players, so it's not very comparable.

    A few teams in the world hold the majority of the talent in football. Like Manchester City is almost totally dominating English football in recent years, but that's just the early stages. It could get much more uneven. Also, they would be buying young players' future, like if only Indian teams can buy under-18 Indian players, that's fine, because that team would have to sell to make a profit eventually and the player can go wherever he wants to as long as they have the money. If the Indian team is owned by Man City, then the young player can only go to Man City even if other teams want them too.

    The end of real competition. The richest will get 100% of the good players, leaving lesser national leagues even worse. Take for example Brazil, it has had the best players for almost a century, but from 1970's onwards all the good players left for Europe at some point of their careers. Besides that, we managed to keep football at good level, winning the club World Cup three times in a row in the 2000's, but the last decade showed us how bad things were going. This year a superstar was revealed in the Copa São Paulo, a sub 21 national cup, by Palmeiras, his name: Endrick Felipe. Keep that name, he will be at the top tiers clubs. At only 15 he showed a stellar football, probably much better than Neymar's at this age. The club is already struggling to keep him in Brazil, he has a contract until he turns 18, but there is really nothing to keep European clubs dumping dozen of millions of euros and the subsequent break of contract. Neymar was only bought when he was 21, making 3 awesome seasons in Brazil. That is what will happen.

    That is a compelling argument. We in North America don't really think anything of it, considering most of our major sports leagues have the parent team and farm team systems. With football being more global and more intricate, it's not surprising to hear of the failed collaborations. But Red Bull and City Group have done well in terms of expansion and developing players. But I understand the arugment against farm teams in football. Take Melbourne City. I bet a lot of fans didn't want to wave goodbye to their Melbourne Hearts name and colours, and sometimes a rebrand at the wrong time can make the entire perception of it sour. This presenter makes a compelling argument, but I'm on the fence on this one. I see the hesitation and dismay of it, but for me personally, it's a system commonly seen on the continent, so I don't have any feelings of reservation about it.

    The first examples of farm clubs would be Basque/Spanish canteras such as Real Sociedad and Athletic Club using many smaller lower table clubs like Beasain, Cultural Durango, Portugalete, etc as localized youth camps. The best talent from these clubs may get fed into Athletic Club or Real Sociedad youth setups. Castoffs from Real Sociedad or Athletic Club youth setups often drift back down to these clubs when they turn out to be 3rd or 4th division players with no more room for improvement. So a Beasain both feeds talent into Real Sociedad and gets talent back. These systems have existed as long as Real Sociedad and Athletic Club originally had Basque policies for recruitment which means over 100 years of cantera farm systems.

Dont be afraid of a change, it always happen. But be afraid of no change, because it almist always means that something "stinks" is happening and they already cover it. They dont want anything to change so their cover can always enough cover for that stinks.

    Red Bull do the same thing in formula 1. They own 2 teams, red bull racing and scuderia alphatauri. Whenever red bull has a talented youth academy driver they promote them into formula 1 through alphatauri. Drivers who perform well in alphatauri then get promoted to the main red bull team. Because this is the case red bull get to filter out the best talent. The result is absolute powerhouses like max verstappen, Sebastian vettel and Daniel ricciardio. Moreover if red bull promote a driver to red bull and they flop they can move them back to alphatauri thus giving the driver more time to develop without kicking them out of f1 entirely, like they've done with Pierre Gasly and Danil Kvyat. Moreover red bull have a multitude of partnerships with teams in lower divisions such as Dams, Prema and Carlin who all compete in f2 and f3 as well as smaller partnerships with other teams like williams currently, where they've loaned out alex albon, and sauber in the past. The system is kinda debated in f1 because on the one hand it brings in some crazy quick drivers into the sport which makes the racing more enjoyable but at the same time they have a reputation for moving drivers into f1 quicker than they're ready, max verstappen was literally promoted to f1 at 16 years old with only one year of lower division formula racing experience but thankfully he performed well enough to become red bulls leading man today. Plus their youth academy is stacked so drivers in alphatauri are dropped super quick following basically any bad performances, often ruining their careers in the process.

    To be clear on the MLB farm system, the players on the farm teams are already signed by the club. The players are just promoted through their system for their play. So similar to league promotion and relegation only except instead of teams it’s individual players. Additionally the U23 training team with Wolfsburg would be considered a farm team in this context. In fact most MLB teams try to control every aspect of the minor league clubs. So this isn’t even a true farm system.

    One key thing to bear in mind is that, at least nowadays, North American farm clubs are only for professional, adult players. North American teams operate drafts because they are the dominant leagues in their respective sports, and most of the best players go through the draft (except for the MLS, which does have a draft but which is also part of the global football talent market). A player who plays for Raptors 905 would have to either have been drafted by the Toronto Raptors, or signed by them or their minor-league team as a free agent.

    First off, I'm impressed that he pronnounced Bragantino almost like a native. Congrats on that. But something you guys forgot to highlight and that I think is also important is the impact that these has in the football fans of the so called farm clubs. Take Bragantino for example. Yes, at first, they skyrocketed into Brazil's first division (one which they didn't play for a long time). However, since then, they don't even try anymore. There's no pressure from the board to win, so they just keep the same coach. And who would want to have a team with no ambition? It sucks to see your local team lose all of its' identity and becoming just a profit for a big corporation.

    I don’t see what’s wrong with it, as it obviously provides opportunities to the players in such teams and nations that don’t have the facilities or resources to develop their talent. It also helps the market grow and attracts more investors to leagues and regions that just don’t have enough interest or development. Like for instance, it’s actually a great thing for fans or emerging talents in a country like India, with millions of people who just don’t end up reaching their true potential. Having big corporations in such markets is actually beneficial in a lot of ways and is only gonna help the sport grow and develop in many places in the world, where that just isn’t the case for any particular reason. It’s positive globalisation for places where football isn’t mainstream and underdeveloped, I don’t see any problem with that, despite a few apparent drawbacks. The pros widely outweigh the cons here.

    This is fantastic, but you have missed the single biggest problem with the farm team system: This will DESTROY competition at every level but the highest level. If the farm team has to give up their best players to their parent club, then the farm team has ceased to exist as a competitive entity. No one knows who wins baseball minor leagues each year and no one cares because the teams exist only to feed their parent club. If the AAA team is in a race for the championship but their parent club wants their best players, the parent club will take them. Literally every level of baseball below the top level is a training exhibition, not a competition.

    For the competitiveness, yes they are bad. This system make the biggest farmer has wider selection of talents and can easily have access to them. Making scouts & local talent club diminished. But if we see from another perspective, about the location demographic of 'where' they farm, we will realize that they are not 100% evil. They mainly farm in the 'edge' of the world: Africa, India, China, US, etc. In the places that almost no scouts wanted to go, where many talents in football is seen as 2nd tier and left neglected without any chance for them to grow. Take US for example, football/soccer is seen as 'soft' sport in there, just a sports for woman (their national woman team is world class). Many man ashamed to play it and prefer Basketball or American Football to play even if they have more talent in Football. This farm pour huge amount of investment & advertising, growing the sport popularity significantly, and give them chance to grow their talent. And its only in USA, a 1st world country, imagine how much of a impact they bring to Africa & India. How many chance they bring to the talents there to grow? You can argue that its why we already employ scouts. To search for talent, but do the scout develop & advertise the sports as a whole too? Or just pick 1-2 players each year and neglect the other to just bury their talent? Scouts system is good, but not enough. Especially in a far out of reach place like Africa & Asia. They just see & take, not nurture & develop anything. Making football in those places will stagnant and never be as good as Europe. At least this farm system excel at that.
