THE BIGGER PICTURE
Ramsay appeared to play down the speculation in an interview with BBC.
"I am self-aware enough to know I am by no means the finished article as a head coach," he said. "I wanted an experience that was going to give me the best chance to develop, the opportunity to make some mistakes, and manage something that feels big. It feels like there is scrutiny on MLS. There is media to deal with. There is pressure you have to deal with exist, albeit not to the same extent as England."
WHAT RAMSAY SAID
"The Championship would have been equally as testing, if not more so, but with that constant nagging doubt, looking objectively, that there is a much shorter life-cycle for guys who go into that league. All round this was a relatively sensible decision," Ramsay told BBC in discussing opportunities in MLS vs. the Championship.
