While Atlanta United’s form has been uneven at best and outright frustrating at worst, the performances of Giorgos Giakoumakis and Thiago Almada have been bright spots.
On Tuesday, Atlanta’s No. 9 and No. 10 were honored for their respective outputs this season as they were named to the 2023 MLS All-Star Team that will face Arsenal at Audi Field in Washington, D.C..
Giakoumakis has made himself comfortable in MLS relatively right off the bat. Despite some injury concerns earlier in the season that seem to have resolved themselves, he has scored 10 goals in 15 matches, currently tied for 3rd in the league with 2 other players.
