That was Besler. And he did indirectly refer to QPR as awful lol.
I don't really think furthering MLS is the foremost factor in these guys' minds. I think they have two primary motivating factors: to play in a good environment (ie a good club) and to develop their play more. And if MLS offers opportunities that check both of those boxes, why would you choose to go overseas and play for a club that struggles? In the past, a young US player may have chosen to do so without much thought but that is no longer the case now because MLS has risen to a new level.
Now, if a top flight European club comes calling that is a different story.
