MLS isn't going to benefit. It's just making the league look like more of a joke.

Beckham lied about caring for American soccer. He's simply a mercenary.
No one cares about American soccer. It's bollocks. It should only be used as a retirement home for European stars. Beckham went over there way too soon.

I'd actually love to play Belgium. We could certainly take them.

But oh wait, you don't support them anyway, you Azzurri snake.
Actually it would be mighty difficult for the USA to beat Belgium. Most football experts would probably agree that we have the more talented side.

Which tells you all you need to know considering the size of both countries ;).

We would beat Belgium. We beat Poland, Sweden, et cetera. Mexico is a far better footballing nation than them too, so I'm confident we would beat them.
Boy, it would be difficult. Onyewu for instance would not be a starter for us. Then there's players like Witsel, Kompany and Fellaini who are at least as good, but probably a lot better than the best the US has to offer.

And even still, the fact that it would even be a contest tells you that Americans don't care about FOOTBALL. You have no football culture whatsoever. It's a pity, I agree, but your national league IS a joke.

That's incorrect because I care, and I think I am a person, so you were just proven wrong.

But belgium doesn't exist.

I support the Azzurri because I like Italy, I like Italian football, have lived in Italy and have Italian friends. Were they to play Belgium, I would side with Belgium. I see no harm in this.

But I'm not a nationalistic American and I realise that the mere concept of nations is relative.

Belgium might actually beat the US, mostly because our coach would never start all our best players at the same time.

If we did get all our best players on the field, Belgium or any other team in Europe would find breaking us down much harder than anticipated.

Onyewu is probably better in the air than CUNTany, FUCKaini is a whore, he plays like shit for Everton.

And Michael Bradley would eat Brussels and shit Antwerp.

As a team, we are actually pretty good. Mexico has better individuals but we beat them unless we're in Mexico City.

Mexico is a better side than many out there barring the top nations.

I've said the MLS blows. You don't know anything about it whatsoever, while I do follow Standard whenever I can.

Our league may suck, but we have a growing football community, especially when it comes to supporting the NT.

The US will beat this belgian team now, but belgium's history in the sport is undeniable
This new Belgian team is pretty strong. In few years it will be much stronger and certanly one of the best European NT's.

Btw, Seven. The population ratio isn't important in this case. It's the number of professional footballers that counts.
USA's population is 70 times bigger than the Croatian, but the professional footballers ratio is at most 1:5.

Belgium is actually starting to look quite okay. I am well aware of the fact that most of you wouldn't know about it as you don't particularly care about the Belgian NT, but it is in fact pretty decent. We deserved to beat Spain last year, but were very unlucky.

It's not hard to follow the Belgian NT. I've seen the top players in action.

They show them all the time on FSC as they can't get the better matches.

Onyewu is poor in a lot of aspects of the game. I don't really support a team other than Juventus, but Standard are my favorite Belgian team, so I do follow them. And yes, Onyewu does well for them, but he is by no means a world class defender.

Of course I don't know anything about the MLS. Have you seen which teams play in it FFS? Who the fuck cares? It's like those teams in Australia. They lack history, Andy. That's why Boca Juniors for example are much more interesting even if their league isn't all that great either.

Yes, but you'd have more professional football players if more people care about football.
