Just noticed a free sports channel on my tele and they are showing 3 live games later.
Anyone actually sat through a game played in the States? Compared to our leagues,what is the standard?

I had a season ticket when Defoe went to Toronto
It really is low quality football, I found it an effort to want to go to matches. Defoe only played a few games, looked frustrated with the quality of players around him. Did his hamstring (as predicted).
I never renewed.

My understanding is that its a retirement home for European players who dont fancy China and would like to live somewhere like NYC for a couple of years. Plus various S Americans not good enough to play in Europe. Any decent American player (ie Pulisic) would play in Europe

MLS is a closed shop and an elite cartel of about 20 odd clubs who gave pay 1billion dollars for the privalage.
I'd rather pick my nose and eat it or watch the American lower leagues which look like a lot more fun...

I went NYC v New England Revolution. Fat Frank, pirlo and David Villa all played and they still lost. And the Revolution fans went through the whole ten men couldn't carry song

Went to a couple in 2010, and one game was decent, but the atmosphere was cringe. I don't mind the Yanks, but football and Americans just doesn't fit naturally.
The games were Philadelphia Union v NY Red Bulls and NY Red Bulls vs New England Revolution.
If I was at home and it was on I'd watch it and in the future I plan to watch a visit a few more like Toronto, Portland, Seattle and Montreal.

It’s about the same quality as League 1.

Went to Toronto v Chicago when in Toronto in April 2017. Decent stadium and atmosphere. Quite like MLS

I've got it on my cable but never watch it. I think you would get bored after 10 minutes, William.

During the late 90’s and early 00’s, the Mrs and I visited Florida quite regularly and we always tried to fit in a Tampa Bay Mutiny match whenever we were there. I realise it is now over 20 years ago, but the standard then was very ‘Dagenham & Redbridge.’
I liked the old Tampa Bay Buccaneers stadium, though, which they shared, with a full sized pirate galleon at one end.
