Here are the results of Doug Roberson’s weekly one-man MLS Power Poll:
Here are the results, which only take into account the results and not potential:
1. LAFC (19-4-6)
Last week: 1.
Draw with Orlando 2-2.
No Carlos Vela and this team again looked very average. I realize very average is redundant. It’s like saying most excellent.
-
2. Philadelphia (15-8-6)
Last week: 2.
-
3. NYCFC (15-5-8)
Last week: 3.
Defeated New England 2-1.
Now in control in the East, thanks to some of the poorest refereeing you have seen this season.
