For me to watch MLS…i need it to become competitive, have relegation, and for the teams to press their opponents. There’s no reason why Casemiro, Sergio Busquets can come to this league and play like they were on their prime when their legs gave out in Europe. I have yet to see them being pressured while they have the ball on their feet. There’s a reason why it’s called the retirement league

facts, and it’s starting to happen! i’ve been going to my local MLS team since 2021, our stadium was basically never more than 40% full (maybe 60% on important games), but since the world cup ended our past two home games have looked about 75% capacity!

Soccer is only popular in the US during world cup, besides that it will always die down

The issue is you see the Sacramentos and New Mexicos and Indys of the league (who still lose money every year) but you don’t see the Loudons and Birminghams and Oaklands who are don’t have the facilities to convince players to sign
