Yeah, they have that stupid rule. It has to do with the salaries, I think. MLS teams are not as rich. Poor Ljungberg. But this seems to be the fate of older players. They end up in the MLS. Juan Pablo Angel went to New York from Aston Villa. Toronto got Laurent Robert (I think that's his name). There are old guys all over. Gallardo was in the US and he now is back at River. Some young guys like Fredy go from Colombia to the MLS. Juan Toja did it too, and now he has gone to Europe, although with Steaua Bucaresti in Romania. Maybe next year Fredy will go to Europe. That's what everyone in Seattle seems to think.
