The controversial message of the USMNT coach Berhalter, discredit the MLS?

Days ago Berhalter had said that Altidore was still the best forward in the USMNT but now he said that the success of the teams is due to the number of players they have playing in the Champions League. Today USMNT has its majority of players in Europe but the MLS continues to be their development league.

Berhalter's statement is very strange since he indirectly discredited MLS with his message that the only teams that can aspire to win a World Cup are those with players in the Champions League. While he has a high degree of veracity, a USA coach would not have to say that about his league.

The MLS has been growing a lot and in a very fast way. Today many players choose to play there instead of Liga MX and many national teams in the world feed on their players. Mexico, Uruguay and Peru, all teams that played the last World Cup in Russia, today have MLS players in their teams.

USMNT has a nice challenge to be able to make all its players come together and form a good team for the next World Cups. Although there is a long way to go, Berhalter has set his goal to be able to arrive with a team capable of winning the FIFA World Cup in 2026, which will be played in the United States.
