Lets go get exciting young players in South America and Europe who are not starting reliably yet.
Issue is they don't want to come, unless they are getting paid way over market value.
Until our home grown talent gets better the older euro most times will still be better than a majority of players.
Issue with the MLS is the bench depth is almost non existent as well.

We're paying over market-value for the older guys, why not pay over market-value for younger guys who will at least have re-sale value?
There's plenty of 20-24 year olds riding the bench for major teams in Europe and South America who could be successful here. Look at Fanendo Adi, Obafemi Martins, Fabian Espindola, Freddy Montero, Marco Pappa, Sebastian Fernandez, Andres Escobar, etc. Fringe national teamers for Uruguay, Chile, and solid national teamers Venezuela, Peru, Paraguay, etc should be targets.
