General MLS Discussion

Speaking of the east…everybody won today and Philly is straight up embarrassing teams. Not good for a slumping NYCFC.

it is good that we don't have to play them again until possibly the playoffs, when we've, hopefully, got our act together.

philly are playing like a team with a consistent style of play, a familiar roster, and cohesive team attitude. they are the team to beat in the east. even moreso than 2021's Revs who would get their wins by 1 goal. philly are absolutely pounding teams these days.

Or Philly could go out to Toronto or RBNJ in their first game. Playoffs can be weird.

no doubt. they are playing well right now. but playoffs are an entirely different beast. 2019 LAFC dominated everyone in the same manner and were eliminated.

definitely not saying they are sure winners of MLS cup... no one ever is.

We're very quickly approaching a real possibly of Seattle missing the playoffs which would be huge.

We're also fast approaching the real possibility that cascadia won't be in the MLS Cup final for the first time in ages

Austin lost to portland in what i think was a must-win game for them in the fight for first in the west. Had they won yesterday, they would have been only 3 points from LAFC!

yea MLS is wild. i love it. only philly remains in form. will they hit a slide right before playoffs? that would be fun :p
 
Nah let them finish fine and then go on a 2-3 week break and then lose their first game of the playoffs. We've done it, NE did it, now Philly must pheel it.
And then they'll complain about how the bye is super unfair blahblahblahblahblah and it'll be so fun to read

I just double checked and decision day is October 9. Playoffs start Oct. 15 with 2nd round on oct 20 and 23. So, at worst, they have a 2 week break.
