Where does the MLS fit?

I debated on how to start the subject but here it is what level would the MLS be if we put all the clubs in some other league somewhere? Would the MLS be as good as Mexico 1st division? English 2nd division? German 2nd etc?

Lets just not have this debate for the sake of the sanity of this board.
Its better than the Scottish League and lets leave it at that.

Poor SPFL. I wonder if people would bother to bring it up if TNBhoy didn't post here.

it's very difficult to quantify. There's a huge disparity between the best and worst players in MLS. Much, much larger than any other league in the world.

First of all, it's not "The MLS". Just MLS.
Secondly, it's so hard to quantify these things. Let's just say it's the 2nd best league in North America and leave it there. It is likely a top 5 league in the Western Hemisphere, and a top 15 league worldwide.

Depth is a major issue on MLS rosters

um no
in due time yes

Um, at the top end, yes. Bottom half of the league, probably not.

Okay, I'll take a WAG which I admit is somewhat uneducated.
I would think, if MLS HAD to move tomorrow into the English league system:
It would be behind the PL and Championship, and become the new League One, moving the old Lg1 to Lg2, etc.

MLS just can't compete with the wages some of the Mexican clubs offer.

Probably better than the Italian league now that it looks like Pirlo is coming over.

I wonder how much the perception of MLS is hurt due to crowd atmosphere. It's so much easier to watch a game on TV when the crowd seems interested

You really think there are 5 leagues better than MLS in the Western Hemisphere?

It's not "the MLS"
It's just MLS

This. As long as people are talking about the league, don't bring up all this petty shite.
