CARSON, Calif. -- LA Galaxy manager Bruce Arena feels MLS needs to slow its expansion plans and that the league is losing focus on developing domestic players.
Since the end of the 2004 season, MLS has doubled in size from 10 to 20 teams. Four more clubs are set to come on board by the end of the decade and last month MLS announced plans to expand to 28 teams, though the timeline has not been spelled out.
"I think we need to slow down a little bit," Arena told ESPN FC in a wide-ranging interview.
