NYC FC is a new team with same owners as man city, so yea they'll be pouring money. beckam and lebron james are bringing a team to miami. barcelona is thinking of having an extension team here. orlando and portland got new teams. the list goes on and on. face it...like i said one day most of the players u follow will come to this league and not so much at an old age, xavi, villa, kaka can still play in top teams in europe
    Why did hulk sign with zenit and not a mls team then?

      Also imo UAE Persian Gulf Pro League and Qatar Stars League are much better than the MLS and will be for a long time.

        MLS has to be better than the Mexican league first, and they have shown no indication of wanting to do that. The Mexican league clubs offer bags of money to Argentinian and other South American players looking for a pay day and that puts them over the top. MLS can get washed up stars from Europe, but apparently that isn't enough because they still haven't won any Champions League titles in North America. And if they can't win in North America, they don't deserve to be in the South American Copa Sudamerica and Copa Libertadores...


        It's a joke to think they can be a top league, when they aren't even the top league in their own continent. Suriname has more CONCACAF Champions League Titles than MLS!!!

          They've actually won it twice.

            Suriname 2 - USA 2 I didn't count the DC United championship. But still... those wins were after MLS was formed and they have done nothing since...

              They have. LA also won it after DC.

                Yeah I know, in 2000, which was the last time an MLS team won. It's now 2014...

                  That's correct. So it's twice in the past 16 years, not zero times ever.

                    Yeah I meant to say they won significantly less than some of the other nations, because I checked the winners on wikipedia and miscounted their titles.

                    The point is 2/16 is much less than 12/16, which is the fraction of titles the Mexicans have in the last 16 years... that has to change before MLS becomes anything comparable to the lower leagues of Europe. Don't try to sell the idea that the Mexican teams are as good as the European teams, because if that was true, there would be as many Mexicans in Europe as there is Brazilians and Argentinians.

                        I don't think there is any question on whether MLS is better or the Mexican league. That's a no brainer.
                        However I think many Mexicans stay in Mexico simply because of the high pay and being able to play at home.The Brazilian and Argentine leagues pay significantly lower. The only ones that seem to leave are the ones who get offers from the very elite clubs of Europe Like Chicharito at Manchester United, Marquez at Barcelona or going further back, Hugo Sanchez at Real Madrid. If it's a choice for them between mid level European clubs and staying home, they stay home.
