Team USA is months away to start their first game in the World Cup against the very hard opponent England. USA is the underdog in this game but are considered to survive their group and move on. Although there maybe a problem that may cause some players to not be 100 percent ready to play. Major League Soccer has said that there may be a possible lockout in the upcoming season. Many players in MLS play for the national team and they need the league to prepare themselves for the World Cup
According to the players union they have not yet reach an agreement with MLS about certain problems. The union wants certain financial problem fix within the players salary. Some are not being paid enough to make soccer a career. Also the MLS does not have a free agent market that makes many soccer players angry that this is not option. All this could lead to a lockout and many World Cup players who play for USA are in danger for not being fit and ready to play at their highest level. Hopefully everything will settle out fine that it will lead Team USA to make an astounding win against England in the World Cup.
