Regardless of who transferred where, parity should once again dominate the landscape of Major League Soccer, which is exactly the way league commissioner Don Garber likes it.
"In Major League Soccer with the way we've structed it, any team can win on any soccer Saturday, and it's hopeful that Real and Chivas will be able to put strong teams on the field," said Garber. "Unlike other professional leagues which takes years and years to develop, this is something that should happen quickly."
By using a salaray cap, as well as limiting the number of player allocations and international players, MLS has helped keep the league playing field pretty balanced.
