With Chelsea signing the very capable Pulisic from the MLS and there being a lot of good Mexican players in that league should we have a look over there ?

We should be looking everywhere. Which I'm sure we are.With Chelsea signing the very capable Pulisic from the MLS and there being a lot of good Mexican players in that league should we have a look over there ?
Bugger - yes he did , but there a few decent players in the MLS many of which played in the Gold cup which I watched - plenty of potentialDid he not come through Borussia Dortmund's youth team?
I'm sure in the next 5-10 years, there has to be some capable top level players come from the MLS.
Watch a bit of MLS, seen a forward called Martinez looks quite good
Yeah seems bit of a **** but think he came on late and changed the game and got a goal in the end.The one at Atlanta? Seems a bit of a billy big ******, did you see the penalty he tried the other day!
He’s American, but has never played in the MLS. I’ve watched and followed the Union for sometime. The state of play is getting better each year. It’s a fitness/physical league, however is slowly getting better technique wise also. I’d say there are players being unearthed and we should tap into it, in the years to come.With Chelsea signing the very capable Pulisic from the MLS and there being a lot of good Mexican players in that league should we have a look over there ?
We have a North American academy don’t we?
Probably a lot to do with the fact that any kids with talent who want to play for clubs have to pay big fees, meaning it's effectively a middle class sport if you want to get on the ladder and your talent alone isn't enoughAlas I fear people have been saying this since '94. For whatever reason they just don't seem to tap into the massive potential (numbers and averages wise) that they could have, particularly with the large Hispanic and Italian population.
