    What a great way for MLS to celebrate their all-stars, set them up for embarrassment. The all-star game should be an east vs west conference match.

    Last night’s game wasn’t very fun.

      I agree. In past years the incoming team played a friendly but this year the MLS AllStars came out looking to prove a point so Arsenal ran them over.

        About 9ish years ago the MLS All Stars played hard against whatever PL team they were up against and won, but the rest of the world gave MLS shit for playing hard in a friendly.

      I liked the MLS - Liga MX format… Why not keep doing that?

      In any case, taking a bunch of players who don’t regularly play together and putting them up against one of the best teams in England is a recipe for disaster, as last night showed. Not good for the league, no fun for anybody to watch.
