Every now and then real life comes up and demands our attention, and that’s exactly what happened to Andrew this week. Don’t worry, it’s nothing bad.  He’s getting the chance to indulge his passion for soccer and I think we can all agree that we think that’s awesome! Fortunately for us, he was still able to assemble some statistical tidbits …

I still believe in New York Red Bull’s ability to get it done for us in fantasy. A lot of people have jumped ship and set it on fire so they aren’t tempted to try to get back aboard. I understand it and it makes sense to drop them for DGW players through this stretch. But NYRB could break out …

Pace of play is a huge area of focus for me as a coach. It is an area that can define teams on both sides of the ball. We know that LA tend to have longer build-ups than, say, Vancouver. We know that both New York teams are trying to win the ball back as quickly as possible. But how …

We’ll be looking at the midfield movers today as they are the position I’m getting the most questions about. These 9 players in the chart below have the highest scores for midfielders and …

Week 1 is in the books. A lot of people are already kneejerking: Should I drop Villa? Is Steres a long-term starter?  The answer is no to both. Breathe, one week is not enough sample size to already declare a player a boom or a bust for anything more than that week. Don’t rush out and make your transfers. Sleep …

So I know that MLS Fantasy Manager was probable not on the minds of many over the Copa America break, so I decided to put together a little stats update to help everyone ease back into the swing of things. I just focused on the basics, Total Score, Points Per 90, and Points for $. I know the fancy tables …

Join Reid, Simon, Guy, Jason, and Andrew Crollard as they talk about what they talk about what they learned after looking at the 2015 player point totals using the new 2016 scoring system.
