Gentlemen, seriously speaking, how do we improve our competitiveness? I don't know about you, but I'm tired of CONCACAF being weak. I mean, look at CAF. They represent quite fucking literally speaking the poorest region in the entire world, yet their Confederation is more competitive than ours.
What do?
You should try being rich and spending a lot of money

Maybe if the South Americans stopped suspending 4 starters, we would actually be competitive
CONCACAF has the highest average finish of all time for a confederation that isn't UEFA or CONMEBOL.

What an Arab thing to say Ahmed

*in World Cups
We should learn how to play fĂștbol
>>68796524
Every country that hasn't been a Gold Cup runner-up should combine into 3 or 4 consolidated teams
>>68796518
This, fuku op
>>68796498
How about just getting rid of it and playing alongside south americans, you tsundere fucks?

>Long ass travels for the poorest teams in CONCACAF
>CONMEBOL teams get absolutely nothing in terms of decent opposition and get a heavier schedule
>CONCACAF """"giants"""" at risk of not even qualifying for the WC
Won't be done.
Let's first of all stop the mls from being a literal retirement home.

imagine them playing the Copa Libertadores.
If we can't fix the mls send more young players overseas where they will actually get experience. Literally having a 17 year old be our most exciting prospect is odd. Please stay in Europe.

I think he was talking about USA and Mexico only
>>68796717
Without them CONCACAF would almost be OFC tier. And my second and third arguments still stand.

Daily reminder
>Ashley Cole says he is "not ready to relax on a beach yet".
>The Galaxy sign him
Embarrassment

Kids go over there every year
The best ones have decided they're Italian (Rossi) or Serbian (Subotic)
Others go into MLS academies
Dempsey went through college and worked out fine.
It's a process. We don't live in a dictatorship. We can't flip a switch and change it overnight. There are thousands of people making a living off the hodgepodge that exists today and they will fight any top-down changes that threaten it.
>MLS should ditch their salary cap and start spending milions in top tier athletes.
This way, more people would get interested and a new, less shitty generation could be formed

My ticket rep asked me why I didn't renew season tickets. I told him I don't want to pay the wages of old cunts like Gerard and Cole, I want increased investment in the academy. He hasn't called since.
I think they sell more tickets with these old fuckers with name recognition. And they're more marketable for tv. So we're gonna be stuck with them and the retirement league label for another couple decades I imagine.

Fuck the athletes , spend that money on academies

Has anyone since Beckham actually done anything? Henry is a literal who here
Have a relevant elite club championship competition in the region, like the champions league. AFC champions league is more relevant
