It's not hypocritical at all. US Soccer and MLS are not the same thing.


US Soccer needs the MLS to be successful. Plus, they are both under the USSF tree.

If we want MLS to grow into the type of league that can be the main supplier of talent to the national team. And I'm not talking about Chris Wondolowski and Brad Davis here. I'm talking about real players who can win real things, like tournaments. These things maybe need to be said publicly by someone as important as Jurgen. That's how things get done.


Ummm... what?

Go back and look at Jurgen's interactions with MLS. On what planet does any of that need to be said publicly? If anything it has alienated the two most visible factors in this sport's domestic growth.

There is exactly one visible factor right now that is pushing the sport of soccer in the US and it's not MLS. It's the one Jurgen is in charge of.
