For a team that has won the most games in MLS (9) in the past 15 game and leads the league in points per game, it's oddly unsettled and unsettling as a fan.
ReplyDeleteSKC haven't started the same XI in consecutive games since Columbus 6/29 and Vancouver (7/3).
It's not just consecutive lineups: they've fielded 13 different lineups in the past 13 games...
I can't think of a team this good that has ever changed it up that much going into the playoffs.
*Correction: tied for lead on points per game with NY & Colorado (8-3-4) vs (9-5-1).
