MLS is not as good as the Premier League. It simply cannot compete with the nearly unlimited money, the pull of Champions League, or the tradition of some of the biggest clubs in the world.
But that’s not to say it’s a bad league. The fact that players like Messi and Busquets are willing to come to the United States and Canada to play shows that the league has its positives. The league is also growing in global reach thanks to a partnership with Apple to carry all of their matches.
