Honestly, the USL player’s union is doing a huge disservice to its players and is misleading them.
Legitimate pro/rel creates an open competition between clubs to acquire a player’s services.
No caps and no collusion to suppress player wages, rather a bidding war to acquire the talent. That is how players win.
This is exactly what the union should be pushing and fighting for.
Not having pro/rel is PRECISELY why player wages are shit (obviously in MLS as well) and players can’t get ahead.
The issue?
With pro/rel (an open, meritocratic ecosystem) the union doesn't have as big a role.
Players need to wake up.

The most nonchalant wondergoal you will ever see 🤯
A stoppage-time winner, no less, in Colombia's top flight. And Harold Mosquera is the magician's name 👏
