Way Too Early Golden Boot Analysis: How Much Will Cyle Larin Have to Score to Top the MLS Scoring Charts?

Cyle Larin’s goal-scoring ways have been well-documented on this site — several times by me personally — and elsewhere, so we knew coming into 2017 that he was going to score goals. He did just that in the season-opening contest this past Sunday, registering the game’s only goal on a back-post header. One game, one goal, three points.

To say it’s early days would be an understatement, as only 3% of the season is complete, but it’s never too early to start looking at what Larin will need to do to win the 2017 MLS Golden Boot.
