The big winners from Week 2? Anyone who stayed up for that wild LAFC-Union match! Andrew, David and Doyle marvel at Jakob Glesnes’ banger, Carlos Vela’s sustained brilliance and the ideal DP configuration. Then it’s on to our winners – Sporting KC, the SuperDraft and the Colorado Rapids – and the Adrian Heath Gaffer of the Week … Adrian Heath!
Plus, how did Atlanta United do without Josef Martinez? Did Inter Miami and Nashville take steps forward? Do the Timbers want to be boring? Oh, and Chicharito! Why it isn’t Javier Hernandez’s fault that the Galaxy can’t find him. Doyle’s looking at Guillermo Barros Schelotto for that one.
Also in this show … #CCLFever is back, first look at the US Olympic qualifying roster, Sounders-Columbus and Swedish producer Anders in the mailbag.

When is Chicharito going to score?
What has happened to Bobby?
Is there no 'This week in MLS' this season?
guys, where's bobby?
If the Timbers are going to be a team that sits back and absorbs the attack then we're going to need better defense.
What happened to explaining the whole Bobby farewell? He’s clearly gone.
Also, Andrew was a bit harsh to the person who wrote about in Chicharito. I had major doubts about little pea coming to MLS as well. Ben (I think that’s his name) got his stats wrong but the point is still true. He’s been declining year after year. He scored 17 goals 4-5 years ago in the Bundesliga. Who cares? What has he done lately besides lose starting positions. I was not sold over his hype. A “proven goal scorer” of his supposed caliber is rather lackluster imo.
Where is Bobby? Also, what happened to the MatchDay Central show?
I miss Bobby Warshaw
So far, aside from being right, like always, on the Mexican flop at LAG, the only thing that has been pissing me off is the fact that Miami Whatever isn't taking advantage of the Pink in their kits. Where's the Pink, Miami? To me, it just looks like somebody threw a pair of very used red socks in the washer with a white kit, WTF do they call that? Whoever is responsible for the Miami kid should be fired and dropped from a helicopter into shark-infested waters. Where's the deep Flamingo Pink? At the point the only thing this pathetic team would have going for it.
Article idea for you, Doyle :
Timbers want to play more attacking football. When you listen Gavin and Gio in their postseason presser, they pretty much said so- especially at PP. However, there seems to be no way for them to play such a style with Valeri as the team's lynchpin. Valeri is a direct, counter attacking savant, but poorly designed for possession/pressing dominance. Plus, there is a growing feeling here in Portland that the Timbers are becoming quite boring- especially in PP. However, I would argue that that mentality switch can't happen with Valeri and that the fanbase would go apoplectic at a Valeri benching. And so the club/Gio is caught in a no win, limbo situation.
FC Dallas?
This Ben guy is a prolific cryer
Chicharito needs to do like any other forward starved for service. Drop deep and use his feet… then I’ll be impressed.
Wow and no credit to Andre Blake if it wasn’t for him they would of lost
Love the show from New Zealand

Wasn't Doyle, just last week, doubting if Pity Martinez can be a good player in this league? Now Atlanta is fine because they have Pity Martinez? Wow LOL
El parcero philly has a good vid on el brujo martinez… check it out !! He was not going to usl team
Miami looked very good at DC. If you only look at the stats or watch the highlights you don't understand how they dominated that game. I was very skeptical of Pizarro but he played like he is taking this opportunity very seriously. Robie Robinson was a revelation. I think they should let him and Carranza fight for the CF position and spend the DP money at a different position. Robbie is tall and fast and he knows how to score. The first week he looked like a rookie but against DC he looks like he is done with rookie nerves. Once he gets a feel for his teammates I could see him scoring 10+ goals.
Andrew, in that context, it's "stick" not "schtick". David should have explained it… 🙂
where’s the review show
Muy interesante lo del plan de hacer esta liga una de las mejores del mundo para el 2045 👍🏻
