Toronto FC skipper Michael Bradley wants MLS schedule improvements

Toronto FC captain Michael Bradley says Major League Soccer needs to improve its scheduling and travel policies.

He made the comments Saturday after Toronto’s fifth game in 15 days, a stretch that included trips to Seattle and Columbus.

“The league has to find a better way to handle some of the logistics,” he said. “Two weeks in a row, we play on Wednesday night and we’re the first game on Saturday afternoon.

“When you see this stuff happen over and over again, you shake your head a little bit because collectively, across the board, we’re trying to grow the league and make sure that the product on the field is at its best on as many days as possible … Having said that, everybody deals with it and this is the stuff you can’t explain to anybody on the outside.”
