very fun team, as was this year's Fire! And the 2013 Mike Magee team was fking magical.

Agree 100%. Just shy of the honorable mentions, same with that era's Henry-led RBNY teams, some of the recent NYCFC teams, the Landon-era Quakes teams and the Blanco-era Fire teams.

significantly imo
November 9, 2025 at 8:59 PM
nah

Honorable mentions to a bunch of "they've got some geniuses and they're just vibing" teams like ObaDeuce Sounders; DeRo QuakeAmos; Magic Unicorn-era Dallas, any time Pibe was on the field for any team, SDFC for the 6 weeks of the Milan Iloski experience, and – obviously – the Messi Era.

at the very worst he's a guy who'll be a high-level MLS coach for a long time.

At best he ends up with a Liverpool or an AC Milan or – maybe – Argentina.

The way Miami fans have savaged him this year is inexplicable.

I will never forget that

Yup. I think there's a very good chance that Mascherno is an excellent coach in an poor man's Ancelotti type of way.

And I know I'm a tactics nerd, but nothing matters more than:

1) Keeping your best players happy.
2) Putting everyone in their right spots.

He managed more ego in one season than most of us will encounter in a lifetime and kept it all together.
