Welcome to our new, two-part weekly MLS column here at Backheeled where we break down all 29 teams in the league.
I’ll be your guide to the Eastern Conference, while Joe Lowery shows you around the West. Every Monday after the weekend’s games, we’ll dissect the latest performances, trends, tactics, news, and whatever else strikes our fancy for each club. You won’t find this level of consistency or insight into your favorite team, your least favorite team, and the other 27 MLS teams in between anywhere else on the Internet.
So, let’s chat about this first weekend for each Eastern Conference squad, shall we?
