Arsene is correct. I just think it will take a while. As long as the big money is in American football and basketball in the US, top athletes flock to those sports. And football, guys just learn on the fly without having to play the sport for a long time. Kids are going pro in European football at a much younger age as well compared to Americans.

So is this game a cool deal for veteran soccer fans? Seems cool to me, but I am a noob.

Cool is a good description, actually. Not a big deal, but usually fun

The MLS all-stars have come a long way from getting torched by Manchester United.

The last few years the MLS players have had some cool moments of interplay and some nice goals, despite practicing together for all of 3 sessions prior to the game.

I enjoy watching them and usually do. Plus it's usually fun to root for MLS against the likes of Chelsea and Spurs I guess the shoe's on the other foot this time, since I'm an arsenal fan.

Fun fact: One of the first MLS All-Star Games finished 9-4.

Debuchy may be the worst player on the field right now

Didn't look like a penalty to me, looked like a foul on Campbell.

Joel Campbell hit the running man challenge before taking that pen.

These Arsenal counters look like a FIFA online game.
