#SanDiegoFC knows how to control games. It super difficult task that they make look extremely easy.

Can’t let them get an early lead on you or you’ll be sledding uphill to your death.

#DCUnited still looks pretty improved despite that scoreline

Players rarely strike for frivolous reasons. Pay these players what they deserve as they are the ones that will break you pro/rel dreams, #USL!

That 5-0 whooping by #NYCFC was deserved after a horrendous decision by Crepeau to play that ball that got him a red card.

This looks lethal in its current form!

Down a man…No problem. Great lead pass into open space. Excellent 1v1 instincts. Astonishing shot bending around a defender. Gorgeous!

MLS Odds to Win Western Conference Top 10 Power Rankings – Matchweek 2 As many suspected, this season’s Western Conference features three really exciting teams at the top.

The three-headed monster emerging from the #MLS Western Conference continued to roll through Matchweek 2, with #LAFC, #SanDiegoFC, & #WhitecapsFC all posting clean sheets!

Did one impress the books more than the others? It appears so…

MLS Eastern Conference Odds to Win Top 10 Power Rankings - Matchweek 1 MLS Championships aren’t won in Matchweek 1, but speculating on the significance of an opening week triumph or stumble is always a great practice in fun and futility.

Four #MLS Eastern Conference teams square off in today’s 11:30am (PST) window.

See how these and the other teams in East stack up on odds to win the conference. πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ€˜

A stumble by the #MLS Eastern Conference reigning champs forces oddsmakers to slash #InterMiamiCF’s implied conference winning probability by 10%!
