We are still a cheap resource for decent talent. Euro clubs should send reps to the MLS SuperDraft and sign all the 17- and 18-year-olds.

Our top MLSers are still getting lowballed in the money deparment. I think other leagues think we’re still a cheap resource for decent talent.

I think there seems to be more MLSers leaving for higher salaries in 2nd tier leagues abroad. Troy Perkins, Noonan, Arguez (though bundesliga is not 2nd tier), TT (if NE would have let him go) and others. I think Ngwenya had the goal of the year last year – the one where he sends the ball around Curtin one way, goes the other and then slots it home from a narrow, narrow angle. Maybe the league is getting more exposure…
