Hm…..Angel was an Aston Villa discard. Wonder why EPL players are attracted to MLS so much - money? Probably. Its not fame - there just isn’t more fame at MLS than EPL.

I don’t think it’s the money. Beckham is the highest paid MLS player. Average MLS salary is around 52 thousand a year, which is pennies compared to the EPL.

i think that Aston Villa made a huge mistake selling Pablo Angel, they didnt give him chance to play more games, he has such protential, he will be greatly missed at Villa Park.
