Only thing Pique is good at now is passing whilst not under any pressure. Apart from that he is completely finished.
MLS teams have gotten better but there's a lot of rookie-level shit that still plagues games.
Can't count how many times I've seen the RB barely past the HW line just cross the ball out of desperation and despite having the time to deal with it the defense still shits the bed most of the time.
The States been producing some very interesting talents lately although not sure if much of it is due to the MLS. Maybe more high school and college.
