You've been watching too much "Bend It Like Beckham" . The profession women's soccer league in the US folded last year

I'd be rather surprised if a MLS team could even avoid relegation from the PL, let alone be mid-table. Unless there has been dramatic improvement in the last couple of years. I watched it a bit 2 years ago or so and it was dreadful.
Well, putting aside that in friendlies they don't play all their best players, MLS teams have done extremely well against EPL teams. I'd be surprised if a team like the LA Galaxy would be relegated.

First of all, you need to work on the names. LA Galaxy!!
I'm sure they would do well in the Scotisch League, say third or something.
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

I have never seen a MLS game but the key comparison with the Premiership is consistency. There are probably a lot of sides who would show up well against a top Premiership team in a single game. Could a MLS team maintain that level over the course of a season with 50+ competitive games?
What, compared to say the Tottenham Hotspur? What the Hell is a Hotspur and why should a football team be nicknamed after it? Newcastle United Magpies? Wha?

I believe they have a chance. Most MLS teams suffer from a lack of depth, but there are a few who I think would be able to do well even having to use the most out of their bench.

The 'Galaxy' is the nickname. In the US, we also tend to refer to teams by their nicknames. We have to because we have so many more sports than you lot do.

But they are nicknames, just like Denver Broncos or NY Giants are registered with the NFL. The actual NAME of the team is Denver and New York (NFC). The nicknames are registered to avoid confusion with other leagues.
Trying saying "New York has a good team" without any context and see how many different teams people think of.

Galaxy isn't that bad of a nickname. Hell, you have plenty worse in the other major sports. Columbus Crew is perhaps the best city name + nickname in all of American sports though . Rapids is pretty decent and apt for that area. Dallas is changing their nickname from the 'Burn', which was kinda silly. Chicago Fire is very good. New England Revolution is also good. NY/NJ Metrostars is too wordy and dumb... what's a Metrostar? Miami Fusion (when they existed) was a good name.
I wonder what Chivas USA and Salt Lake City will have for their nicknames when they come in next year.
