Thread 149090990

for me, it's Major League Soccer, the professional soccer league in North America and the highest level of the United States soccer league system

>franchise league
>closed (no pro/rel)
>salary cap
All that aside the quality is around 50th in the world

>>149091145
>salary cap
So weird, thinking how would this work in europe and ofcourse how oil teams would bribe key players using non-cash assets like real estate and all kinds of under the table deals.

>>149090990 (OP)
>nooooo somebody other than messi is going to score
>deflects it over to him so he gets the credit
what is this, the world cup?

nobody cares about mls, it's a humilation ritual for the latinx

>>149091145
when are you going back to brazil dog

>>149091246
salary caps do not enforce parity, they don't make it fair. There are too many other variables like housing prices and cost of living and state or local taxes also relative marketing opportunities and so forth. All salary caps do is save the owners/clubs running expenses and limit the earnings of the mid and low tier players. Salary caps are fucked

so ironic because you're a poorfag subhuman who fled his land for fucking IRELAND lmao

I don't see the irony. Are you sure you know how to use that terminology?

yes, it was indeed pissi "riggi penaltini" cuckitini himself.

>we gotta stop them successful teams being too successful, to give everyone else a chance
why do the americans love socialism in sports? why don't they ever try such revolutionary ideas in, let's say, the broader society?

>>149098471
>football is rigged because poortugal lost

>>149098478
Socialism only works in homogenous societies where everyone has shared values. America would have 100M people living off government benefits and contributing nothing if we went to socialism. Unsustainable.

>>149091416
>>149096785
Salary cap works for the NBA and NFL because they're the best leagues in their sports
But for a soccer league in the US it's beyond retarded
The "franchises" have to keep a bunch of bums around who can't make it elsewhere, so they have money left to pay actually good players
MLS will never be compete with the biggest leagues of its sport

>>149098541
Without penalties Messi would get ranked lower than Javk Grealish

>>149099187
maybe his opponents should stop commiting fouls in the box then
retard

>>149099187
Keep it up, I'm always amazed at how retarded you can get.

>>149096785
Right is indeed better

>>149098748
Salary caps in football are a good idea when you don't think about it.
>IF each FA sets its own salary cap
>this basically enshrines the grand pecking order of what league dominates since the best players will all try to get to the league with the highest salary cap
>this raises the salaries overall because any good player now gets to demand to meet the local salary cap if they ever get an offer from a higher paying league
>you can probably see why that would be a problem in leagues that are struggling financially
>IF UEFA sets a salary cap for all leagues
>UEFA-wide salary cap would need to either be extremely high and thus irrelevent to all but maybe three leagues OR low and cause the highest paid players to really reconsider that offer from Al-Camel in Saudi Arabia
>even if the Saudi push ends, there could be another situation like the chinese boom of the 2010s or MLS offering more attractive "retirement packages" or what have you

>>149091401
>heh... a player in this city spends 3% of his salary on housing and this other player has to spend 3.2%!! that alone makes it the same as Sheik Aladdin Mohammad's team paying more for one player than another teams entire starting 11

>>149099496
everyone knows without Qatari penalty trophy Messi would just be
>that lad who won a treble with barca 10 or 15 years ago and choked after leaving la liga

nobody cares about his yearly copa america finals against 9men Venezuela and if you google it you will find 'messi missing penalties compilation'
nobody cares about Farmers Ligue 1 Uber Eats against teams which are worth less than Achraf Hakimi
nobody cares about Miami Churro FC fixtures against part time bartenders and plumbers
nobody cares about his ballon doors stolen from Xavi Xavi Iniesta Iniesta because fortunately people are not blind and recognize massive generational talents who won world cups and euros without Messi

reality is harsh i know, take it all in and breathe, dont let it upset you.

>>149100562
Come on, I'm sure you can get more retarded.

>>149100393
if UEFA implemented a federation-wide cap it would have to be a sliding scale like +/- X% of the average team's wage expenditure or something

>>149090990 (OP)
Damn, another masterclass by pissi, truly the GOAT of all time.

>>149090990 (OP)
That's the sort of tough physical play you'll see in a top 10 league. You wouldn't get it.

>>149100336
MLS has a playoffs, none of those other leagues do

>>149100972
MLS winners should be compared to cup winners then

>>149100972
>>149101002
Hmmm

>>149101002
It would be better but it's still not precise, depending on the cups and how teams qualify for them

>>149100957
how are the dutch this dogshit

Never trust Americans when they present data to you they're almost always not doing it in good faith and are trying to trick you into agreeing with them

>>149101057
Sure, but no reason to trust anyone else either.

>>149098478
>americans love socialism in sports
because it gives us hope. my city will never compete economically with giants like NY or LA but a salary cap means they can't buy the leagues best talent. American dynastys are built off shrewd scouting and player development not who got the deepest pocket.

>>149101088
Always be analytical and employ critical thinking. Doesn't mean you have to treat people as untrustworthy either, you should always check what you're being told rather than simply going along with it even if you do think it's true

Isn't it funny how the gyppo Twain has a problem with MLS not because it's a bad retirement league but because Messi plays in it and he has to make Cucknaldo look good?

>>149090990 (OP)
That was actually a great effort trying to prevent a almost certain goal, it's just bad luck that the ball land straight in front of Riggitini who stands where a good striker has to be.

>>149101002
The supporter's shield (team with most regular season points) is as diverse

>>149101057
>le heckin good faith
are potato monkeys even allowed to not be complete faggots in everything they do?

>>149101190
Then fucking use that to make your irrelevant point

>>149101116
>Doesn't mean you have to treat people as untrustworthy
Of course not, if they realize you have your guard up they'll try harder to trick you.

>>149101220
Thanks for proving him 100% right. America truly is a shithole.

>>149101488
oh wow the pedophile weeb doesn't like me, how awful

>>149101234
No one cares about the supporter's shield

>>149101562
Bit of a moot point since no one cares about soccer, either.

>>149100562
I can just picture it, you're some little brown manlet from India or SE Asia, sat in your grim tiny room on your 2009 era PC, Ronaldo posters on the walls, no friends no girlfriend, just every day posting on twitter and 4chan using a VPN defending your rapist idol. How sad.

>>149101140
Look at the effort from the keeper though.

>>149101631
>on your 2009 era PC
my videocard is worth more than your mum's council flat with everything in it

>>149101513
Nice projection nonce.
It's not that I dislike you (though I clearly do now), but that you've proven America is a hellhole if having good intentions is something to be mocked.

>>149101697
You are loser that lives in a fantasy world where you think that moving far away will somehow make you no longer a loser. You are a shit stain on the world and every day you go by without ending yourself makes the world a worse place. Words can't describe how little your words mean.

>>149101738
Again: nice projection, nonce.
Seems like I really hit a nerve there.

>>149101962
>n-n-no u
yep, just a completely worthless faggot

>>149102036
You had an absolutely visceral reaction to the concept of people conversing in good faith, and proceeded to make outlandish accusations about someone you've never met the moment you received pushback. Think about that for a second and try to understand that maybe your life sucks because you yourself suck.

>the numale, low testosterone MLsoy fan

First guy did well to stop it going on, it's the fault of the GK for collecting it / the 2 other tards for not hoofing it out.

On the left : real life, unfair, high stakes
On the right : Marvel/Disney movies, pre-planned release cycles, curated, easy to follow storylines and diverse themes and characters created to follow curretn market research trends

yanks love communism when it benefits billionnaires and megacorporations

>>149091401
He’s not wrong. I used to live in Seattle at a time where the median rent was around $1400 and the MLS minimum weekly wage was around $700. Do not know how the bench players could afford to live there

>>149116202
Wrong on all accounts. Sad to hear you're "undesirable", it'll get better anon.

>>149113794
All burger leagues are entirely based on communism. You literally get rewarded for being bad there. Teams purposely tank their seasons to get food stamps for free and then get better after a few years.

>>149090990 (OP)
All that dedication to make sure Pepsi is the one on the score sheet. Good play by the first guy. Goalie almost fucked it all up. Good thing he realized who's in front of him, so he jumped out of the way. Also that last guy covering Pepsi to make sure no other Miami player can get there and steal the goal.
Respect.

i'm sure that'll get you guys over the hump lol
