MLS Commissioner Don Garber says ''we have been talking to the Premier League about doing some sort of official competition as opposed to just having clubs come over to the country on a random basis.''

Garber says he would like a competition between the English Premier League and FA Cup winners and their U.S. counterparts in New York every year or every four years.

In meetings with the Premier League, no specifics about a competition have been discussed.

Garber is attending the Soccerex convention in Manchester, England.
