Angel: his move to the MLS good or bad?

I've given this piece some thought, so please feel free with your comments. 

FOR:-

17 goals this season already - a new record

More exposure in Colombia about the MLS may mean more players from Colombia attracted to the MLS

Only cost $325000 basic

AGAINST:-

Plenty of Colombians in the MLS before Angel came along.

New York is in the same position in the league now (more or less) as they were this time last year, so Angel hasn't made a huge difference. 

In England bringing in older foreign players worked.  The money was there, the sport is HUGE in the UK, TV revenues have allowed player wages to reach unforeseen heights - It'll be tough to replicate that progression in the MLS. 

He had one good season at Villa and a few mediocre ones. 

I still kind of waver on this signing.  From certain angles it looks good but from others it doesn't. 

A better Colombian signing by far is Juan Carlos Toja, at 22 he's got the potential to be an MLS player for years to come. 

Juan Pablo Angel is a different kettle of fish to David Beckham.
