PPC Final Houston Dynamo - Gamba Osaka

lol. who cares about soccer.....

I still remember watching this game.

@psuitts11
put it this way, the bottom 3 teams in the relegation zone operate on budjets double that of the salary cap in the MLS...the biggest team urawa reds...has a net salary pay out of over $16million USD...that's 7 times bigger than the salary cap in the MLS. the j.league is miles better than the mls, watch some games and see for yourself

I didn't know much about the J-league, but I've done some research. I will concede that the quality of play in the MLS is inferior to that of the J-league. However, you give the reasons as to why the MLS is inferior. The teams in the MLS just don't have the budget to build a team that can compete with the J-league.

@ mylovelylongneck

man i swear we fucking have tro invest more in our league, the players earn crap, and this is the reason why they play so dullfully.

oh well gamba youth team is not that great as their 1st team because the Vancouver whitecaps youth team killed the Japanese teams youth sides at a tourney a while back and didn't lose one game so as far as I see it that was a USL teams youth team too :P but then again the caps youth team is the best in north America, but ya Houston had a off game they are actually a solid team and if they had shown up I think they could of won and who decided to have be played in Hawaii? play it in Texas.

@tophdawg
japanese teams operate on huge budjets, the japanese players are technically miles better than their american counterparts and the foreigners are miles better than those in the mls as well.

gamba osaka isnt even that good either, theyre a midtable team at best in japan. a team like kashima or kawasaki would beat any mls teams by an even bigger margin

can you spell RAPE?
