@tato
Obviously if I had the time I could prove that MLS is better than SPL but I won't So I'll just bring up one example.
Kris Boyd, the SPL's all time leading goalscorer, came to MLS and scored 7 goals in a 34 game season, and was released at the end of the campaign. (He was 28 at the time btw, in the prime of his career) |

| The coefficient includes the Europa Tournament as well. That is why Scotland is ranked in the mid-tier. |

There you go. So they aren't even ranked 15th. They're ranked 24th in Europe, while MLS is ranked 7th in the world.
Good job tato. |

Adam Moffat failed to do anything in MLS until he saw time with the Houston Dynamo under Dominic Kinnear, who's about to get benched anyway due to the emergence of Giles Barnes.
All of those players except one played in the MLS while it was really bad, and the league was very young. It took you a long time to research those players btw.
Also, Kenny Miller, Vancouver's supposed DP who's supposed to be their superstar, has failed to do anything in a year. He's only scored 5 goals in his time, being benched often and having injury spells. |

Kenny Miller and Kris Boyd are useless,
they can't even get in the Scotland squad...
