Who do u think will join MLS sooner Vancouver Whitecaps or Montreal Impact and why?

Question

Who do you think will join MLS in the future Vancouver or Montreal and why do you think? Has any of the clubs showed interest on playing on MLS?

Personally I don't think they should join a MLS I would rather have them wait a few more years and have other investors show interest on having a canadian team until you have enough to start your own National League.

through my investigations in soccer discussion forums I have learned that theres many opened soccer markets in canada like Calgary,Edmonton,Winnipeg,Hamilton,Ottaw...

Just with those 7 you would now have 10 Teams and thats enough for a Professional League.

I would like to leasten to all your opinions!!!

Answer 1

if Canada had their own independent league.that would be good for Canada.but it might also stunt their development.a Canadian league would take a long time to develop competetive football.the MLS is already reaching new heghts in quality.

the Canadian players would get better experience playing in the MLS than in a 10 team Canadian league.

I also think Montreal will get a team first.they have excellent attendence in the USL.I believe its 13000 per game.Montreal impact.

imagine if they got included into the MLS.plus the rivalry TFC and Montreal would have would be awesome.they are only about 2 hrs drivimg distance apart.this would gaurantee sell outs every time they would play.that rivalry may even become bigger than the Galaxy Chivas USA rivalry.

Answer 2

Vancouver will have a team in the MLS.  Steve Nash has teamed up with the Whitecaps owner.  Steve Nash met with MLS officials during the All-Star game in Toronto.  The MLS stated at the All-Star game that their will be 2 more expansion teams for the 2011 season.  I see Vancouver as one of those clubs.  Montreal also has a good chance at the other spot.  They already have a soccer-specified stadium with is important to the MLS.
