It has been an uneasy and uneven start to the MLS campaign for Atlanta United, a team that is clearly finding its way through the season’s first seven games.

Saturday’s 2-2 home draw with Nashville SC showed the two extremes to Atlanta United. A first half of dominance gave way to a second half where breakdowns and a lack of execution led to dropped points.

There is no denying that Atlanta United is in a better way right now than a year ago.
