Personal sponsorship clinches the deal. He’ll get more money from endorsements than salary.
Well of course, but how does MLS compare to other leagues such as our Championship and League 1, Bundeslig 2 etc
I saw something which suggested that LA Galaxy would be around 8th in the championship and other MLS clubs would be anywhere from there to mid league 1 but I didn't check what year it was written and I can't be bother searching for it again
Some of the responses in this thread are well and truly OTT.
Were we considered an option? Yes. Did the media speculation in the previous 72 hours raise hopes beyond us just being an option? Yes.
I'm not sure the LA deal came about until relatively late on, but I said when his agent had the interview to Wales Online that there would be an agenda; and it was clearly done to stop the hyperbole that was starting to occur.
He can go to LA; come away from the spotlight, get some match fitness (the league isn't fantastic but it's championship comparable) and see where he stands in a year time.
I would've been absolutely delighted he came here, but this makes him no less of the Wales legend he already was. It makes him no more of a Cardiff City legend, but then he never was one.
The unveiling at Hensol is a bit of a but ultimately that took place yesterday evening with the FAW as I understand it.
Plus, I'd always have preferred Ramsey if we can get him fit and firing anyway and no, I've not got a bloody clue .
CCMB
Where speculation becomes fact.
I wouldn't be surprised if CCFC knew from day one that he wasn't going to play for us but said to him 'string the fans/mugs along for as long as you can and hopefully they will buy season tickets thinking you are going to join us'. Anyway Good luck in LA it looks a bit of a dump but the golf courses are good I hear.
They are top of their league though and he would most likely be fighting a relegation battle here, in what is considered a tough league to play in.
We’ve got next to no creativity in the squad so who is going to feed him the ball?
As I said probably the easier option to get himself fit and takes himself out of the limelight.
I am a Cardiff City fan , I am chuffed Wales are playing in a world cup final but I would have liked see Bale have a season or two here
I don't really care about November , I want us to win some games early season
This lot must be happy.

It was brilliant.
Lifted this from Wiki: Hayes was a fan of the Scottish football team Dundee United, having lived in the city in the 1960s. Hayes said that he asked the producers of Rainbow to make the Zippy puppet tangerine in colour, to match Dundee United's colours rather than the blue of local rivals Dundee.
