Almost one month after its Leagues Cup journey ended at the hands of Cruz Azul, Atlanta United is back to grace/haunt our television screens once more. Gonzalo Pineda’s side returns with a busy summer transfer window completed and ten games left to ensure it doesn’t miss the MLS Cup playoffs for a second straight year.
The good news is that Atlanta’s four new signings all look the part on paper and if all goes to plan, will be major upgrades in the starting XI. The bad news, though, is that these next 10 games account for one of the hardest run-ins in the league.
