Makoun high key sucks
If he keeps Omar off the field entirely I am fine with however bad he might be.
Makoun high key sucks
FACTOS.
Supposedly a CAM incoming...?
I do not love Kahlina, Charlotte really needs to reload this offseason.
The ideas are good, but there are way to many USL players regularly playing for this squad
Prediction time, which in MLS is mission impossible since most teams are an injury away from a mess and there are always 3-5 teams who surprise to the good. But here it goes.
EAST - Which is more top heavy and has (a lot) less depth than the West.
1 - Philly - You can argue for any of the top 6 here. So I really have no particular logic other than I like their balance.
2 - NYCFC - No reason not to like the defending champs.
3 - Atlanta United - Good signings. Relying on some players who are getting longer in the tooth.
4 - New England - Last year's Shield winners will remain competitive.
5 - Columbus - Put last year's tougher year behind them.
6 - Toronto - No one did more to help their cause in the offseason. Still have questions about the defense though.
7 - Miami - Thought they looked better as the year wore on. I'll roll the dice here.
------------------
8 - Montreal - Did well in the offseason. But it often takes time for players to adjust.
9 - Orlando - Love the DP signing but it isn't enough IMO to make it to the post-season.
10 - Chicago - 10-12 are a real jumble for me. This is my favorite of the three.
11 - DC - See 11 and 12.
12 - NYNJ RB - 10-12 are a real jumble for me. This is my least favorite personally of the three.
13 - Charlotte - It's all been said here already.
14 - Cincy - Everyone rags on them. Shooting for their third straight wooden spoon. So screw Charlotte's efforts for it.
WEST - Top 2 to me on paper seem clear. 3-10 are all very close.
1 - Seattle - Deepest team in the league.
2 - Nashville - Great spine on this team. Do question how the move West impacts them.
3 - LAFC - Solid signings to an already deep team that underachieved last year.
4 - Minnesota - Solid enough D. 3rd in chances created last year but 21st in goals. Revert to mean more with Amarilla and a full year of last year's in-season signings.
5 - Colorado - Ran teams over with athletic lineups last year. A key loss with no replacement. Still think they are a playoff team.
6 - SKC - Lost one of their best players to injury. Otherwise would be higher.
7 - Vancouver - They were solid enough last year IMO. Have a hunch they'll find a way to get in this year.
-------------------
8 - Portland - Sooner or later father time catches up to this group. I'm willing to say it happens now. Let their goalie walk. Lost a key guy to domestic violence allegations too.
9 - Dallas - Pepi is gone. Brought in Ariola and others. Could surprise to either side honestly.
10 - LAG - Fashonable pick to do well. Thin on goal scorers though unless you think Costa will find form.
11 - San Jose - Nothing suggest they'll do anything great. Treading water with no big adds.
12 - Austin - Maybe letting last year's DP walk is addition by subtraction. Not sure I see it though.
13 - RSL - Hate some of these guys. Lost best player to Seattle. No repeat on playoffs.
14 - Houston - Relying on Darwin Quintero still. Not good.
