Wow is it just me or is that another indication that US Soccer is starting to be taken serious...? Or do you think he was just being sarcastic?

Either way... to have world class players like that talking about MLS teams is a good thing!

He might be Cienfuegos or Djorkaeff, but sometimes, our "World Class Players" are Branco, Azizi & Luis Hernandez.

It's great that another great player is mentioning MLS, but it always amazes me that they think that they can just pick and choose which team they want to play for. Don't we have processes for equally distributing players like this throughout the entire league? Yeah, I know. Who am I kidding? New York or LA will probably always end up getting these big international players.

Just like I'm betting that one of those two teams will end up with JOB too.

wow, Del Piero was my first real favorite player when i entered the soccer arena years ago. it would be nice to see him play!

funny how european players who 'retire' there, but still want to play can come to MLS and become MEGA stars!

When you say "Brian" I'll assume you mean John O'Brien. I don't think there are any Brians playing for Chivas anymore. (Dunny is with LAG now).
