If they can get their players in places where they can develop, they could be in the elite ranks with Argentina and Brazil next Cup.

What I want to know is how we can continue to improve US soccer. I think we need to really focus on getting foreign stars back into the MLS to drum up interest.

I hope the US getting knocked out doesn't persuade the people who came around to stop watching.

There are other FIFA threads from the last 2 years where many of us have been regular posters.

Right now isn't the best time to make fun of people.

I do not see declining foreign stars helping the MLS.. Just learn to love the Premiere and other leagues and our American stars in it.. The US will never get a league on par with the European leagues..

If we don't the US will never win the World Cup.

The MLS needs to pull in fans coming off this World Cup.
