Some of the US players are good, but not good enough to win the WC. Also while they will always get the occaisional good result, to win the World Cup takes that little bit extra. This extra they only learn on the playing fields of Europe. Who was the last side that won a WC without any European based players?

That's rather a silly statement. The reason people go to play Football in Europe is because of the money. It's not that it makes them better players.
South American football is a differentl style to european football, but easily on the same level, if not better.
By the way, 13 of the 23 man squad for Brazil in this world cup are Brazilian based players.
