I'm going to update a lot of my MLS dashboards this week now that the season's over. Let's start by revisiting preseason 'wisdom' of crowds.

Better than I expected, really. Avg predicted seed was close on about half the league, but 7 clubs fell above or below anyone's prediction https://t.co/46qsytejSB pic.twitter.com/gPyWRhJmac
interesting info and thread
he later added this:
Are people talking enough about Heber's production for NYC in front of goal? Small sample (56 shots in 1,575 minutes), but ruthlessly clinical this season.

BTW, FCD's Ondrasek would be in roughly the same place on this chart, but he was well below the minutes cutoff with 747. pic.twitter.com/KY1IW67zQI
He purposely kept Heber's font as yellow in a yellow background because he hates NYCFC
So, we have perhaps the most clinical finisher in the game, two other guys who are at or close to elite in the league for finishing, and one more who would be with them if he had played enough minutes. And none of those four guys is named Maxi Moralez.
So, remind me why Maxi is taking penalties?
Because he's spider man.. spider man.. does whatever a spider can.
Actually, I think he should step down for the good of the team and let one of our clinical finishers take it. I would hope, if it happens in the playoffs, he will step aside and choose someone with confidence to take it, like he did with medina.

'Soccer was everything' - Behind USMNT legend Claudio Reyna's dream to change New York City | Goal.com UK
U.S. national team legend Claudio Reyna, whose immigrant background fueled his passion for the sport, is hoping to be a driving force behind its popularity in New York City

Wasn’t sure where to leave this: Academy, Media, Long List of Club Screwups.
Regardless, the irony that the mothership is pissed is so so sweet and serves them right for the Lampard fiasco. Guess they can’t handle that Claudio prioritizes being a dad before being a company man, and was looking out for his son’s best interests.

[USMNT Only] According to @90min_Football , City are tracking the development of Giovanni Reyna and are furious that he left the NYCFC academy for Borussia Dortmund. via /r/MCFC https://t.co/mXnDmyUUNX #ManCity

Can't blame Claudio. I'd do the same thing. Gio now has a chance to play with the first team of a great club. Kind of hard to pass that up. Sure, it was likely that he'd get signed to the first team at NYC but Dortmund is a much bigger opportunity if he can actually get 1st team minutes.
so wait. Claudio disobeyed CFG when Gio walked?
I am dubious.
NYCFC found life after Villa. Can it win MLS Cup?
New York City FC had long revolved around David Villa, but without him the attack is unpredictable, and an MLS Cup run looks more likely than ever.

Nice little article.. plus a video with twellman saying how he thinks we'll lose..

Yeah, just saw his comments at halftime saying the winner of Toronto vs. DC has a real opportunity to win the East. A more knowledgeable but still idiotic pundit.
Also, can someone make sense of the below...
Their inaugural campaign ended with a shock loss to the underdog Columbus Crew and 2018's run finished at the hands of eventual champions Atlanta United.
Our inaugural campaign in 2015 ended by not making the playoffs. Our first playoff campaign in 2016 ended by Toronto.

He made a mistake. Said the wrong word. It happens. Even good reporters and commentators make mistakes.
The upshot of all this is the following - if there is one team that's being disrespected going into the playoffs, it's New York City.
