FC Dallas. 6. team. 370. No team from Dallas can use ‘heat’ as an excuse for a bad game. The lineup choices from Oscar Pereja will induce plenty of hot takes, but after the big win against Atlanta squad rotation was to be expected. On the road, in the mountains, this third game in eight days was always going to be tough to win for FC Dallas. Kellyn Acosta had little help in the team, but did little to help himself after the penalty decision.. 10-3-5. Previous: 4th

373. The Red Bulls were finally corralled by the Blue side of NYC. Marsch is gone. Adams is likely to follow. Murillo is rumored to be Euro bound and Rivas has been shipped out. The Red Bulls at the close of the transfer window will be a wholly new team than the one that started the season so well. The New Bulls look to frustrated the last couple of weeks, like a team back to learning a system versus a team excelling in a system.. 10-5-2. Previous: 2nd. New York Red Bulls. 5. team

team. 375. Armenteros and Valeri attacks are sharper than Timber Joeys sawblades. The rate those two are producing goals is unmatched in the western conference, which is why both are in the MLS team of the week. Third in the table, Gio Savarese’s team is unbeaten in their last 11 league games and still alive in the US Open Cup. Two games against LAFC in the next week, in league play and the US Open Cup, will be Savarese’s biggest test yet as an MLS coach.. 8-3-5. Previous: 3rd. Portland Timbers. 2
