    I know I’m getting ahead of myself but if we wanted to host MLS cup this year we need Portland to make it out in the west.

    The weather is horrible in the timbers/rsl match. Snowing and raining in the second half. It’s on Tsn4.

    No MLS Cup in Toronto. Only chance at home game is if the New York Red Bulls and TFC meet in the Conference finals.

    Oh well. We all knew if this is going to happen it’ll be more like a Seattle.

    Simple question for everyone: regardless of what happens Wednesday, do you consider this a successful season?

    Wait, what if LA Galaxy make it to the MLS Cup? Wouldn't the game be in Toronto since we were 4th in the east and they were 5th in the west?

    I think the teams are ranked by total points rather than their conference seedings. LAG had one more point (51) than TFC (50).

    I do consider this a successful season. We struggled early through some major changes. Once we got everyone together it took some time to get chemistry but there are sparks of that 2017 team still visible. There is much more parity in the league now then before as well.

    We finished 4th after a meeting pretty brutal start and we’re at the conference semis against what’s been the best team in the east. A team that we’ve played well against.

    The MLS season has exceeded my expectations as I set them back in March. It has been a decent transition year from the unprepared for leavings of Seba & Vasquez. We will be a much better team next year.

    The CCL & the Voyaguers were both disappointments.

    With NYRB losing, any chance of the MLS Cup being in Toronto this year is eliminated.

    The game maybe. The MLS Cup will be in Toronto though when they bring it home following victory


    NYRB loss had no impact. MLS Cup match was guaranteed to not be here once the west 6 and 7 were eliminated. Red Bulls are in east, so at best we could've had a conference finals home game

    Yeah actually Red Bulls losing means no more games whatsoever at BMO this year. MLS Cup not coming to Toronto this year was already decided Saturday night.

    Cincinnati firing technical director. Wow what a s$&*tshow that team's FO has been.

    They have us beat, I think they have had more crazy dysfunction in one year than we had in our first three (not a low bar).

    Poor Nick Hagglund.

    A LOT of US soccer punditry talking about how the USMNT team is better then the Canadian but the problem was the system they were using.

    Most of this talk is based on the false premise that the league a player is in determines their quality as an international player - most people outside of the US know that theory is bunk.

    MLS just awarded Sacremento a franchise. That's 29 teams for 2022.

    2020: Miami and Nashville
    2021: Austin
    2022: St. Louis and Sacremento

    I thought Phoenix was a frontrunner now. Or maybe they'll be the new stalking horse in place of Sacramento.

    I would love to see that with pro/rel between the 2 but I can't see that happening as long as Garber is in charge. He is completely against the idea

    Add 1 more, stay at 30. Easiest for scheduling. 5 divisions of 6 teams. You play every team once outside your division, and your division twice. Top team in each division guaranteed a spot in the playoffs, plus how many more teams you want in.

    The teams that deserve MLS teams are now all in. Anything more than this is just reaching.

    Not good at all,you will have one or even two shitty divisions where winner will advance in the playoff with less point than some other 2nd or 3rd places in stronger divisions. This will make regular season meaningless once again.

    32 Teams, east and west conference and that's it. This format ,"one and done" seems to be working well,every single game was wild,not tactics ,just go for it.

    Most likely MLS will either keep it at 14 team playoffs, or go to 16 (Both btw I think is way to much). It hard to imagine a 1st place team in a division that won’t be in the top 14/16. Plus, 32 team schedule doesn’t work. You’re either not going to play a few teams every year, or you will only play 3 teams twice, which I don’t know how you decide who they are fairly.
