To add - CF Montreal had him as their coach and got rid of him - utter madness!!!
And now Saputo has also driven away Renard, absolute tyrant and shithead owner
They now have a coach who was under Nancy.
He was driven away by our owner meddling in his coaching. I was so pissed off.
Joey Saputo is a bozo a la Daniel Snyder.
that’s cs our owner is a bih and bc of him Nancy and renard left
Watching Columbus play is a lot of fun. Wilfred Nancy is a genius. Aspects of his style honestly remind me of Xabi Alonso at Bayer Leverkusen.
It was fun 3 to 0
Genius lol
As a Crew Fan I was questioning Nancy. But once I saw our team play mid season in his first season I believed. Everyone on the team is goal dangerous potentially. Plus the striker position, regardless of who falls there, is dangerous. This to me is better than Peps system because the striker position in his system in the past usually required a false 9 style player. I also love the freedom each player gets.
You only questioned him because he’s black
He technically did just make the Champions League final, so you’re right 😂
If you want to be technical, it's technically called the Champions Cup, not league
It was called the Champion League 😅
LAFC fan. I also acknowledge this guy is going somewhere far. He's a big time coach. Jealous
Dude is making magic with the crew hahah super jealous haha
Columbus vs Pachuca is going to be a hell of a final
Just Pachuca dominating them
@@user-kp3do5cw2lpretty much the entire columbus team was sick
@@jillp1343 cute excuse
@@user-kp3do5cw2lyou ever tried playing a professional sport while severely dehydrated and shitting your pants? Not really an excuse, more of an explanation. Pachuca played well, but anyone who has spent any time watching Columbus knows they were a shell of themselves in that game. There’s a big asterisk next to that final as far as I’m concerned.
@@tonyclifton57 nobody gonna read ur long excuses lady
Also check out Machida Zelvia in japan J league, newly promoted from j2 league and are now 2nd on the J-league table.
Hope Burnley make an approach for him to replace Vincent Kompany
It’s a possibility but I think he really loves Columbus and would need a big offer to leave.
The video last year was great, glad to see the follow up.
Do a video on Guillermo Almada that’s the real football genius. Arriba los Tuzos! 💙
Nancy has done a very good job, he seems to potentially be an exceptional coach but Champions league final seems a reach, I mean it's possible depending on the situation, but no one is guaranteed a Champions League final
Exactly this. Take nothing away from Nancy he’s a great coach but there’s great young coaches already in Europe that will never even sniff a UCL Final as a manager
Without saying that switching places from South America to Europe is already hard enough (and only some few have managed to make it there) while being the second best place in the world where the game is played outside of Europe. going from MLS USA/CAN to Europe will be a road filled with thorns.
He is french at least but he will have to prove himself at a much higher level.
Yeah, inzaghi reach cl final before conte. That doesnt mean inzaghi is a better manager
@rafamahardikareswara1065 you do need to be good at your job to get there but you also need a bit of good luck along the way too
@@mrmr5580 no disrespect to inter but 22/23 inter had the easiest ucl run i have ever seen in the last 10 years
I’ve been a crew fan a long time and never has it ever felt this magical, I really think think we could compete against the man city’s and Real Madrid’s of this world. There really is no limit to what we could achieve as long and nancy is our coach
Our team was so fun to watch when he was in Montréal. Relatively average players playing way above their weights. We miss him a lot. SAPUTO OUT.
Wild that they let him go.
Bologna fans would absolutely disagree with you about Saputo
@@mattiamelara5429 of course, Bologna is obviously his priority
As a Boro fan I only started watching clips recently to see what Morris was all about, massively impressed by Nancy and the way Columbus plays and come the day that Carrick leaves I wouldn't mind Boro giving him his shot in Europe.
I agree love his setup and the way he plays still trying to figure it out because he throws in a wrinkle or two every game. Yes I have watched your video several times
What I love is that the first 2 plays you highlight against the Red Bulls are almost identical to the goal in the MLS Cup final, only the pass goes over the defense instead of on the ground.
Columbus already have the best football team in America, and it definitely isn't THE Ohio State.
America is the continent and the best is River Plate
@@PillJm A lot of the world splits it up into 2 continents: north america and south america. Crews power rating right now is number one in north america
Hahaha, love this comment. osu ain't even the best football team in their own town.
Also Go Blue 💙💛〽️〽️〽️
@@TheSeanburke101Pachuca by far should be number 1, they outright destroyed Columbus, could've been a outrageous result then 3-0.
Columbus Crew eliminting Tigres and Monterrey, back to back, with 2nd legs in Mexico against both teams, was very impressive. VERY IMPRESSIVE. Those are two of the three richest teams in Mexico. I honestly thought it was going to be a LigaMX team vs LigaMX final. The greatest thing was Monterrey's coach acknowledging how good of a team Columbus is and accepted that they lost fair and square to them. To the Columbus Crew fans I say this: Enjoy him while you have him because I have a hunch that he's going to coach Canada in the not too distant future. (No, he's not gonna coach USA. Berhalter isn't going anywhere until after the 2026 WC.)
He just signed a contract extension.
Will he perform on June 19th with the king right in front of him?
Triple G OUT! Nancy IN!
Pachuca 3, ur boys 0
@@user-kp3do5cw2l not my boys. I'm not an MLS fan, but I had to give them credit for how they made the final.
Great video - union fan but i love watching Columbus' style of play a lot more
Like it mate. Have a look at the team I manage. Walton & Hersham. Very similar ideas.
Good video, good explanation, I learned a lot watching this video.
Nancy is definitely an excellent coach. Funny you showed that RBNY goal because I recall watching the highlights of the game and at first I thought they messed up the editing and were showing the same exact clip twice....but the second one was a goal. All I could do as an RBNY fan was tip my hat to Nancy and the Crew for totally exposing RB. The Crew are a really fun team to watch at the moment.
As an Inter Miami fan I wish he was our coach and for the love of our League I hope he stays for as long as possible MLS needs a legendary household coaching name
Honestly I'm just happy Hagen got to play once. He was fantastic, and I hope he breaks into the first team squad a bit more soon!
TFC.. Wilfred Nancy would be in Toronto because of Tim Bezbecheko. Tim Bez got offered Columbus after their renewed ownership directive, an improved role, and the fact that he is from ohio himself - if that never came together he would have certainly retained his role in Toronto and not experiment with Armas or Bradley, and would have undoubtedly waved a (likely better) agreement to Nancy. Nancy is certainly a talent... Tim Bez knows how to identify and retain it.... absolutely.
I absolutely love this team! We are fully behind our team here in Columbus
Yeah that all sounds great but when FIFA change the offside rule later this year, possession will be less important and the goalkeepers will pretty much act like a quarterback. The game will continue to evolve. Sinbins will be introduced as well.
There has just opened up a manager position in Berlin at Hertha, second Bundesliga, but the perfect next option.
Columbus has a chance to play in the Club World Cup, not sure Nancy will pass up on that to go to Bundesliga 2 at this moment
@@Hesyourlifelightmissing out on promising job offers because of two or three games at the club world cup would be braindead
Well I guess Marsh gets another shot with the Canadian national team. Wow! Jake, your videos are awesome. Thanks so much.
Great Analysis
How would you recreate this in FM
I’ve been a Crew supporter for the better part of 20 years. I have never seen any MLS side, much less *my* MLS side, be an absolute tactical menace in the way that this club is right now. It has been fairly mind blowing to watch-let alone the fact that he only set up shop in Columbus just a little over a year ago and is still playing with just about half a squad that he inherited from a previous coaching regime. Impressive is an understatement.
Tactically was a mess , 3 to 0 , no answer
I haven't watched MLS since Apple bought the rights, but have watched this organization several times and they are a fun team to watch, and they play like a crew, so they play like their name with many players leading the charge...
Well put!
Great Video i was screaming that Nancy would have been the perfect coach for the Canadian mens naional team🤦♂️He wisely turned down an interview with our 🚮 federation !.He is absolutely brilliant and underrated IMO!.🍻
He would be great coach for US national team.
That is what I am thinking. Nap him up before he leaves for Europe.
The Crew have already lost one coach to the National Team.
@@shawnharrison9701They can switch coaches
I think a club coach is where he belongs so he can grow a team into his philosophy. He would not have that ability on the national team where players are not there very long at a time.
I'm sorry we sacrificed one good coach for the sake of the national program, we're not going to lose two to that. Besides, he's French and I suspect eventually he'll want a crack at Ligue 1 more than he wants to coach the US men.
Also, he's a system coach and vastly more so than Berhalter. Not sure he's a good fit at the national level.
in the future, we'll see more underdogs winning the league, like Leicester, its just bound to happen with all these young managers.
How things would have changed if Andrada held the ball 5 seconds more... I believe that Crew's commitment to going all in on the attack makes them vulnerable to counters. Rayados' two goals were on the break. If they had played 4231 and left Brandon on the bench (something they do sometimes in liga mx). Overlapping wings kill teams playing 3 at the back because their wingbacks get tired faster and Monterrey had the players to do it, it's just a mystery why the coach didn't do that.
Timbers at Crew was probably the best match I’ve seen this season
Good analysis, really appreciate it. One nitpick though. If they're averaging 60% possession, they're actually possessing the ball 50% more than their opponents. The correct way to look at it is the ratio of one team's possession time to the other. If they're possessing 60% of the time, the other team is possessing 40%, so the ratio is 0.6/0.4 = 1.5. In other words, they are possessing the ball 50% longer than their opponents--on average they have the ball for 54 minutes and their opponents 36 minutes. That's a huge difference especially if they're not just farting around with the ball, which as you point out they're not, and of course the other team can't score if they don't have the ball.
We (crew) needed a formation change, under Porter we played in this formation once and it looked amazing. I was SOO pumped! I'm excited we need to pay to keep him and let him develop players.
Looks good but in premier league especially ten hag tried that 5 forwards to leave 1 midfielder on his one if it works looks great but so easy to get dominated in midfield
They don't leave one mid. They always have two mids, with a winger or ST dropping back to mid in order to draw the Def out of their shell. The WBs push forward simply to draw the Def out of the middle, and to create link up play. Usually cycling the ball back to Mid from the wings. It's a probing style of play.
The opposing teams style of play determines which area the probing will work. The wings, the middle or long through balls. Sometimes quick link ups once the defense is drawn out of position.
@@shawnharrison9701 4:36 that means there’s one cdm if they loose the ball with 5 players there their in trouble
@@shawnharrison9701 but I get you if those wingers are full backs could get away with it
@@Josh-bs3ey they use two center mids. Either one of the wingers/CFs or the ST drops to mid as a false CAM. This is to draw out the defenders towards midfield. The wing backs are simply used to spread the field and to 'help,' on defense. Yeboah and Farsi are primarily used in those positions. While all of their attackers switch between ST and Wing/CF roles. It all depends on the opposition. What their line up is, and how they are attempting to play. Once they figure out the weakness, they probe it over and over until they get a result.
@@Josh-bs3ey it's not the most defensive of ways to play, but they rely on ball retention as defense as well as 5 at the back once the wing backs fall into their defensive position. Sometimes they drop Nagbe deeper to help defend the middle in front the D-Line. Camacho isn't exactly a fast Defender, which doesn't help on long through balls over the top.
We were until the embarrassing loss in Mexico, lose our GM and now trade away Morris. Throwing in the towel is more like it
As an ohioan, I absolutely love how Nancy is doing we absolutely love him here in Ohio and I hope he stays here for the long term. I know he'll eventually be going to Europe, but for right now we absolutely love what he's doing for the crew.
Love the comments that his future is now not bright because he lost a final. Even notwithstanding his team suffering from illness, no single game defines a manager - let alone one in an away stadium. Focus on the big picture, the tactical innovations. Not scorelines. Anyway, great episode!
It’s so wild the ride Columbus supporters have been on.
Wouldn't it have been awesome if we had gotten Wilfred Nancy for the USMNT instead of the dude at Columbus who never won a trophy?
As a Columbus fan, I'm still not sure who is the better coach Berhalter or Nancy. Both are amazing. Enjoy the wins instead of whining.
@@celebrim1you can’t be serious
@@cedarparkrangerssc6296 Completely serious. You can't be well informed.
Not for nothing, but I still maintain that if VAR had existed in 2015 we (Crew) may have actually won the MLS Cup final. Portland’s go-ahead goal came off of a play that took the ball visibly more than a foot out of bounds. We were in the ascendency until that goal fizzled out the game. Not “coulda, woulda, shoulda;” but I also think that Berhalter did a very good job leading our club at a time when Precourt was trying to submarine the team so that he could move it elsewhere, and mismanagement by the front office was at its pinnacle.
@@kamehousekz87 When we hired Zelarayan, that was more money for that one player than Berhalter had been given for a whole team. Yet not only did he win, but he managed the team buying low and selling high, finding diamonds in the rough and role players and getting performance out of them no one else can. Precourt was giving him a budget near the bottom of the league, but except for that one year everyone got hurt we were always getting late into the playoffs. With any other manager, we would have been like Colorado or Chicago back then.
Kinda sucks that we talk about the inevitability of Nancy moving to Europe,.. but not to the USMNT.
I come from the more future future, where the allegedly most interesting team outside of Europe right now just got pummeled and taught a lesson by Pachuca 3-0. Not sure how M. Nancy is any more interesting than Diniz, Larcamon, Almada, Milito, Jardine or even Gareca. Mr Nancy himself admits he copies off of Lavolpe.
He immediately impressed me more than Porter had.
He's a good coach, but I'm not as sold on him as you are.
And I'm the guy that said in 2015 that Berhalter would be the next USMNT coach.
If Nancy goes to Europe I wouldn't be surprised, but Champion's League? In game management? Last year his in game management largely consisted of never making substitutions.
He didn't have the players to substitute. Now he has a few extra pieces of his choosing. Most of the players are left over from the previous coach. They've simply bought into his ideas.
@@shawnharrison9701 We're actually in some places much more shallow than we were last year. We had both Gressel and Farsi last year, and both Cucho and Zelarayán. We're a bit slimmed down and we're trying to fill it out with some youth players.
And no, most of Porter's players were left over from Berhalter and Porter didn't bring in any new ideas. Nancy has completely remade the team.
@@celebrim1 Luca wasn't needed in the system they play. He didn't have the speed to consistantly switch positions all game long, which is why they were okay losing him. They have a young Canadian ST, Cucho, Rossi, Matan, Hinestroza (new), Ramirez all of which are somewhat interchangeable. They have zawakski playing RWB sometimes which I guess is working out, while he also fills in at CM and CB. They picked up Jones who plays CDM and CB to close out games for a bigger presence. Sands has come back at LWB from injury to fill in for Yeboah.
They will need a RCB, CB and possibly another CM soon enough. Depending on how well Nagbe and Moriera age. Camacho isn't very young and Farsi will need help or even replaced.
I haven't followed Crew 2 this year, so I'm unsure of what they have on that lvl.
@@shawnharrison9701 Hinestroza isn't really working out, Rossi can't seem to score in regular season play, Sands is awful, and Yeboah is just barely serviceable. Jones has been a pleasant surprise. Farsi was definitely our weak link last year, but he's OK enough now. Nagbe is going to need to be replaced soon. Moreira is in his prime and should be good for another 2-3 years.
@@celebrim1 it's Hinestroza's first season. It's to soon to tell whether he'll work out or not. It took Matan a few seasons before he matured enough to be a full time player. I don't think Sands is awful, though I do think the LWB position could Def use someone more threatening/better at D, which can also be said for RWB. The issue is that this is the MLS. Columbus can't just go out a purchase whom ever they wish. There is a structure they must adhere to. The club doesn't have many loses within league play and they'll be able to focus on the league now that they only have 1 more match in the CCC to hopefully win. I think the season will turn out okay given the record thus far and they can always add a piece or two during the transfer window. Hopefully one or two under 21 players for the near future. Clubs generally offload players pushing their 30s which is where Moreria is headed. I also believe he has a few more season in him for the club, but they as of now don't have a solid backup for him besides zawadski.
I agree that the club is fairly thin compared to European clubs. They could use a few more pieces.
The chart at 3:00 tells it all, absolutely incredible.
AGREED.
this is the man i’ve asked the usmnt to hire over ggg
Not afraid to make changes based on the opponent he’s playing….SEND THIS TO GREGG.
Will never forgive Bocanegra for not extending Nagbe.

@@amacuro Barca B was way above the other teams in the league back then because of la Masia, so no, this is not a big achievement. Rebuilding a Club from scratch like Klopp did with BVB and LFC is a way better achievement
@@carlkontermann5637 i'm not comparing with Klopp, but Barcelona B were in the third division and had been struggling there for years. Pep promoted them to the 2nd division in his only season there, playing with unknown youngsters and doing tiki taka in awful pitches.
You have no idea what you are saying regarding la masia back then.
@@amacuro turns out YOU have no idea about La Masia... The youth teams including the B team have been improved steadily since Carles Rexach took over there and that was already years before Pep was installed. By the time he took over the B team was already stocked with talented youngsters who were boxing way below their weight already for some time and so it was no surprise Pep got easily promoted with them.
@@carlkontermann5637 to use a team that was struggling, that had been stuck in third division for a long time, and that had to play tiki taka in awful pitches, to minimise Guardiola is pathetic.
I admire Jurgen Klopp hugely but this is no reason no disregard Guardiola's Barcelona B season the way you are doing it.
Every coach is in awe of Guardiola's capabilities, even when they know about the budget advantage. But I'm sure you know more than them.

Nancy just got schooled by Pachuca's coach Almada at CONCACAF level, not by Guardiola or Ancelotti. It would be unfair to blame the players because Columbus lost yesterday's final from the bench instructions. By minute 12 at 1 - 0 it was obvious Nancy's strategy was wrong with Pachuca's total dominance. By minute 32 at 2 - 0 it was clear Columbus could lose 10 - 0 and Nancy failed to make adjustments or substitutions, not a single one, Pachuca kept using the same formula. 2nd half and Pachuca's academy players were toying with Columus midfield and the Olees started, Nancy was exposed, he stuck to his plan time and time till it was embarrassing to watch, Nancy at this point was hoping for a miracle or the game to end. Alexi Lalas and Stuart Holden calling the game justified the loss to Pachuca's wallet and players' monetary worth, that is just poor knowledge or excuses, Pachuca is worth less money than Columbus in the Transfer Market, that player they kept blaming for the loss arrived to Pachuca for free by his own decision, Rondon. Nancy got schooled by a CONCACAF coach and a bunch of Pachuca kids, and his few moves were irrelevant, Columbus could have lost 6 or 8 to 0. Making predictions this guy would be coaching a Champions Cup in Europe is just crazy and funny.

I don’t watch MLS but I watched the concacaf final vs Pachuca. They played so poor, exposed in the back line numerous times.
Entire team was sick. What you saw isn’t an accurate representation of how the team plays.
Inter Miami destroyed them
Destroyed who? Miami hasn’t played Columbus since Messi got there. Are you thinking of Cincinnati or Nashville?
Ricardinho this is why you need to learn past tense in English. You meant “will destroy them”
nancy is from europe
Yeah obviously, but has been in NA for 15+ years
It was so interesting seeing them lose to Pachuca 👏👏👏👏
So here is the thing Jake. Before the game I said "He's a good coach, but I'm not as sold on him as you are."
The next Pep Guardiola isn't going to get coached off the field by Pat Noonan. Not taking away anything from Pat, because he's done a great job, but Wilfried Nancy for all his obviously great qualities as a coach is obviously not one of the world's top coaches.
For one thing, if anything, his in-game management is worse than Berhalter's and always has been. For another thing, if you watch Berhalter's run in 2015, every game he was the one tweaking the system and running out slightly different looks against opposing teams in an effort to leverage an advantage he perceived we had on the field. Nancy's run through the playoffs in 2023 was nothing like that. We got outplayed by every team we beat - Atlanta, Orlando, Cincy - before the playoffs. But in the playoffs, every team we beat self-owned against us by tweaking their game to try to face us where they tweak proved in hindsight to be the wrong thing. We went through the 2023 playoffs not by tweaking and changing our game, but by just remaining calm and sticking to the plan. But that's not the same as great tactical coaching, and this year in 2024 I think it is safe to say that a lot of teams have had a chance to review the footage and figure out what worked against us and they are coming into the games with plans to shut down the Nancy system and he's still sticking to plan and it's not working.
Yes, he had the excuse that the Crew were focusing on the huge upside of winning the CONCACAF championship and thereby qualifying for the NEXT FOUR club World Cups, the next one to be played on home soil. But that doesn't explain getting out coached and badly out coached in a rivalry game at home.
He aint going to be coaching no UCL final team.
4-6-2...
So 1.5 pts per game while making a champions cup final plus suspension of your best player? 🤣
Brother hasn´t seen Anselmi's Cruz Azul
All that possession just to only score 13 and concede 11😂
It’s a long season!
Americans discovering the possession play in football :))))
I don't know. The buildup doesn't look very organized. Move the ball around quickly and hope you don't make any mistakes or bad touches. Any decent pressing team will embarass them.
So the literal fact that they are the 6th best team in the world retaining the ball under high pressure means nothing?
@@ItsCalledSoccer It means something of course. they are a good team for their level.
But you can't use statistics in that way.
They would be outmaneuvered by any midtable+ teams from the big european leagues.
I am not joining the hype train of this coach thats all.
@@ItsCalledSoccer Take a look at the example in your video. 11 sideway passes to move the ball 15yards up the field. Very bad risk/reward ratio. Keeping the ball in a dangerous area, and having about 7 close encounters where they easily could have lost the ball. This works against the level in MLS, but thats about it. I will probably even start betting against Columbus, as one small dip in confidence would cause them to leak goals.
Even Roberto Di Zerbi who is considered the king of this fast low buildup style encounters problems. Because its a hard playstyle to apply against good teams.
Yep, Pachuca did it.
60% average means they have 10% more of the ball than the other team on average. Because maths.
if they have 60% how much does the other team have out of 100%?
Good grief, then let him stay there. I fall asleep enough as it is watching Guardiola's team.

They lost the ball a lot on Saturday
0 ball knowledge 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Are we talking about the team that ended up third in the regular season (the full season on a serious league), like 12 points behind the leader? Are we talking about the same team that lost its home game and draw its away game against Inter Miami when Messi wasn't even in Miami yet? Your play-offs are just a unfair second chance to teams that didn't make it in the regular season. But hey! Rules are rules right? And congratulations to Columbus, but saying that its coach it's the next Guardiola it's ridiculous!!

Prove it in a proper league then we talk
Sorry, you’re still far behind, but you’re evolving. A secondary league coach making the Champions in the next 10 yrs would be almost a miracle.
Jake, I guess you need some other glasses. In 10 to 20 years when the US teams have advanced from high school to level the international leagues, there will be a chance. MLS is not even close. Sorry!!
Depending on your metric, MLS is somewhere between the 14th and 6th best league in the world. Call it 10th and you'll be about right.
The main difference between MLS and those trash Euro leagues is the lack of superteams in MLS because of the salary caps. If you look at those European domestic leagues, the problem with them is the top teams in the league are spending 20-30 times what the weaker teams in that same league are spending. That means that even crappy leagues like Primeira Liga have probably 4 teams that are better than any MLS team despite the down table going all the way down to USL level.
And of course, people don't actually judge leagues. They judge the best team in the league as if that was the standard of the league (instead of saying judging the median team). What this means is MLS is going to shock people because the whole league more or less rises together. The salary caps will gradually increase, until the whole league is as good as top of the table EFL Championship teams.
He needs to leave MLS and coach in a more competitive league before he gets used to the idea that being slightly above average is good enough to win championships.
You mean the leagues with the same club win the league every season 😂
MLS is extremely competitive due to the parity of the league. Everyone has to abide by the same roster rules so being able to get THAT much out of his players is very impressive
@@darthmitsurugi In MLS, you can finish with a losing record and still get into the playoffs. 64% of the teams end up in the playoffs. The regular season has no meaning. You can lose every game in every season for years on end, and there will absolutely be no consequence because there is no relegation/promotion. Nobody will care. The owners won't care, the fans won't care, the league won't care. With the salary caps and profit sharing, all the owners will make money, guaranteed.
How does that make MLS "extremely competitive"?
Worst of all, the players won't care. This is the single reason that players like Acosta, Feirrera, and Miles Robinson, stay in MLS - they know they are guaranteed big salaries and they can show up once in a while, make mistakes, and don't have to always play their best. Because the standards are sooooo much lower, and nobody will care or even know enough about the game to call them out for making a critical mistake or not performing up to their best.
This is the single biggest reason that MLS is a net drag on the development of US talent. MLS drags down talented players, allowing them to play for a comfortable salary without having to try too hard all the time.
That's just not the international level that the USMNT needs to break out of this perpetual slump it's been in of never, ever getting past the first knockout round at the World Cup (unless it's Mexico they are playing).
MLS is a "competitive league" only in this very strangely American Pro Sports Communism way of installing arbitrary rules to flatten out and artificially distribute the talented players around so that every team theoretically has enough talent to be competitive on the field. The main intent is to guarantee the financial health of the teams and their owners, NOT to increase the level of competitiveness.
In the rest of the world, yes, the major soccer leagues are generally dominated by teams with wealthy owners, usually just the top four or five wealthiest teams in the league. But the threat of relegation does light a fire under the badly performing teams - coaches will get sacked, players who don't perform will be benched and then offloaded.
You just don't see that in MLS, nor in MLB, nor in the NBA or in the NFL. Would the Oakland A's owners try a little harder if they knew they could be relegated down to AAA ball? What about relegating the ever losing New York Knicks into the CBA? Or the Jacksonville Jaguars getting relegated down to WAC college football? Would those owners and players at least try a little bit harder?
