Copa Sudamericana champions Internacional have revealed they have turned down an offer for midfielder Andres D'Alessandro from Major League Soccer side the Los Angeles Galaxy.

The 27-year-old Argentina international was a leading figure when the Porte Alegre side became the first Brazilian club to win the continental title earlier this month.
Internacional vice-president confirmed the Galaxy made enquiries about D'Alessandro in November but their interest was quickly nipped in the bud.
"The offer came from the Los Angeles Galaxy of the United States. I didn't even want to listen to the details," Carvalho commented.

You think that is funny, the real joke is on the Porte Alegre guy he is a total idiot, it is one thing to think that but to say that to the international press, it reveals a lot. My prediction is this guy won't be around very long and if he is he will be probably sorry he said that.

[Bricktop]

Uhhm he just won Copa Sudamericana. Why should he not reveal that to the international press? And yes I think it is damn funny

The guy's comments were undiplomatic and there is no need to diss the LA Galaxy.

Undiplomatic? Calling out a bug league is undiplomatic?

[Hortical]

Mi know...funny fi true.

[Zeppo]

He dissed the Galaxy, not MLS.

Reading comprehension is fundamental.

[Bricktop]

So let me guess if it was some other MLS team he would have been doing cartwheels? Yuh league is a bug league. Face it

[Mosiah]

Nice post, Brickie!

And yes, if it was the Red Bulls, the great d'Alessandro would have been there already!

He dissed the Galaxy, not MLS.

Reading comprehension is fundamental.

Am I to assume that Galaxy is not a subset of the whole (MLS)? I do not get it...

[Mosiah]

Mek Zeppo stay deh. Dissing any club is dissing the MLS. They are one and the same.

[Zeppo]

I can only wonder what kind of enticing offer an NPL team might have made him.

Laundry service, making him one of the only players in the league who doesn't have to wash his own uniform?

A monthly bonus of four bags of goat feed instead of the normal two?

Imagine the possibilities!

[Assasin]

we just give him a big head and some good Jamaican rum fi back it up. If him want protection wi offer that too.

When will the MLS learn?

The best teams in the MLS are the ones who build their teams on youths and grow not the ones who love to inject big name foriegn ballers like the Metro stars, the LA Galaxy and Toronto.

One of the foolish move LA made was to trade their best defender Tyrone Marshall when they had no defense. The White hear bredda from the EPL, where is he now?

MLS will not grow until you have a relegation system , not be taken seriously by anyone.Dynasties are Born that way.Thats the quickest way to develop a grass roots system of support .
