  ESPNsoccernet - MLS - Galarcep: Western Conference shopping list
MLS will continue to struggle luring players in their prime to MLS because the international perception of the league is still a few notches below Europe's top leagues.
Some MLS teams are taking the extra step of heading to South America in search of undiscovered talent, as well as hoping to buy players who are either just below Europe's radar or are at points in their careers when Europe just isn't calling anymore (as D.C. United did with Christian Gomez).
Truth is MLS has enough trouble scouting its own country, let alone places like Brazil and Argentina, where foreign clubs have already picked at the talent to the point that some places look like a supermarket the day before a hurricane.

The quality of play in MLS has improved since the league was founded in 1996 and the success of the United States national team in the 2002 World Cup, reaching the quarterfinals for the first time since 1930, has been partly attributed to the experience gained by playing in MLS.
