I find that incredibly hard to believe. If I was a top prospect and had to choose between a club like the Galaxy or a club in Europe like Ajax. I would go to Europe every time. I would prefer somewhere with history and tradition over new money. Player preference I guess is what I was trying to get at.



This. Hell, right now if I suddenly became an awesome soccer player and had equal offers from Spurs and Galaxy, I'm off to London.

But if that offer was 4 times higher in MLS you wouldn't take it?

4-8 million is around the salary range for players like Gerrard and Terry. If MLS pays like the typical American league these players can get over 20 mil a year
