its true the USA is a more recent football playing country but so was every other country at some point. The difference is in other countries the talent started from youth no coaches when you were young the streets taught you then coaches taught you how to play as a team or a style of play he or she wanted. MLS will get better when talent is found from all over the country and not overseas investing
ohhh MLS this league is about money the football is getting better i cannot lie but MLS needs to get more american players its strange to have a league dominated by foreign players. The academy system is okay but is also about money to make it to the senior team. Please MLS stop caring about the money so much, you have alot of talented american players and that is what you need instead of the henry's and beckham's
FIFA rankings are the biggest joke in the world.
and by the way god is dead
Call it want you want, it is still the beautiful game. Football is for everyone around the world. Since you are basically saying that since we suck we shouldn't watch or play it that doesn't make any sense. That is like saying "You are a bad writer! So you should never read books!" or "You suck at computer programming! You shouldn't use a computer!" You are the real disgrace to football. You keep perpetuating stupid shit, just because I don't play it professionally doesn't mean I can't watch it.
Got nothing to do with North or South. Colombia has great players, but your league is in the shitter. Brazil has a great league, much better than MLS. Mexico has better league than MLS. Not Colombia.
You're league = You are league*
i loled.
We play better soccer, we just dont have the funds MLS has.
i like MLS though, FC dallas is the team i follow
You're league sucks. It wouldn't make the top 10 in the UEFA coefficient. MLS would be 5-10.
check the IFFHS website, Colombia's national league is ranked 21 unlike the number you spouted. The MLS climbed 30 spots from 88th to 55th in 2 years. The Colombian league dropped from 14th to 21 in 1 year. Can you think about that logically? Given enough time the MLS will be globally competitive. There is room to grow, and we are growing. And that racist remark was uncalled for. People like you make me sick, football talent isn't better or worse because of someones skin color or ethnicity.
Chivas usa"!!!!!!
That picture you showed was one of the Farfans, not Zach Pfeffer. lol get it together MLS,
why not? We have a college system so I don't see a problem.
Lets see Union have value in la toux try to get him away on loan doesnt work. valdes same thing, i think if we didnt have the dp rule this would help the union out so much more trade valdes get money back use that money to invest in a player.
La Galaxy!!!!!!!
@youngbuck189 except Colombia has higher quality of footy than here. Big difference in divisions.
Chivas coach is not a big move. Why are these two excited? The guy has had half a decade of marginal managing under his belt. He is more bark than bite. Just another smuck who will fail in MLS like almost every single foreign coach has. See ya fired within two years buddy.
Colombian league is not great. 18 games in the top league. Not a lot of room for quality competition. Like Brazil, Colombian teams play in lots of divisions. This isn't good for the game in my opinion. If you have only 18 games in the top flight, why bother tiring your stars against low level teams in the state league?
Imagine if the :LA played in 20 additional games a year vs California clubs. It's fucking stupid. It's an outdated way of organizing football. Too many meaningless games.
First! Whoo! Love this show!
