On Par with the Premier League?

I don't think so, I dont think Alexi watches his own football, its pathetic. It is like watching a blindfolded man try to catch chickens. The MLS has no appeal to it, it doesn't boast the best players in the world, and therefore doesn't equate the best football.

I think he said it right, and should have ended with this statement "In England, our league is considered second class..." Instead he went on to ramble about how if he took a helicopter with MLS players over to England they would win, hahaha. The helicopter wouldn't make it across the Atlantic, what a retard.

The British press loved this one,

"The game was not without moments of quality ... (but) some of the defending from both sides was the type of stuff you watch through your fingers," according to The Mirror.

"It was the football equivalent of a demolition derby.

He can't seriously think this, he can't be that dumb. To even think that that league is better then second division English teams is a stretch. The MLS has no good players, nothing that stands out, besides Beckham, but hes doing it for future goals, not for the football. The MLS is rubbish when it comes to quality of football, its rubbish when it comes to the quality of players, and rubbish when it comes to quality in general.

Let's face it, if this league was so good, why isn't Thierry Henry, or Christiano Ronaldo or ANYONE worth mentioning moving to the MLS at the peak of their careers? The only things the MLS is good for, like it's cousin from the 70's, is money for players at the end of their careers.
