#MLS is back so it's time to bring the lineup graphic grades tradition here!

#LAFC: like how the gold is used as a block for text or crests. layout won't work for every formation. the circle around "starting" doesn't belong. name font doesn't work in a smaller size.
Grade: B

EXCLUSIVE:

spoke to #NWSL commissioner Jessica Berman this morning about Trinity Rodman and the salary cap, which doesn’t seem to be going anywhere

the salary cap, she said, is “the reason our league is the most competitive league in the world”

with @rcattry.bsky.social and @pcattry.bsky.social as my witnesses, I guess it’s time I go buy a lottery ticket.
If you had Katie Stengel scoring a last gasp go ahead goal in the second half of extra time, please go buy a lottery ticket.

sat down with Jurgen Klopp for 45 minutes as he told me about why he doesn’t miss coaching at all, work-life balance, why a Saturday in Central Park is better than a loss at Selhurst Park and more

a lot of great nuggets in this one, I highly recommend reading it

Jurgen Klopp loves life after coaching, doesn't plan on coming back: 'I miss nothing, I enjoy what I'm doing'
Klopp, now the head of global soccer at Red Bull, has a job that satisfies his coaching itch -- without the pressures of bearing '1,000% responsibility' for results

it's premier league opening weekend & it's time for lineup graphic grades!

Liverpool: I really like how this picture works with the layout but can't guarantee it'll be visually interesting every game. Great fonts but subs area looks crowded.

I'm late but worry not, #NWSL lineup graphic grades are here!

#VamosPride: The background is fun + vibey but the fonts clash. The script font is out of place. Don't like that they wrote Xi. The game changers double font style looks odd.
Grade: C+

and that's a wrap on MLS graphic grades for 2025!

next up is NWSL opening day, when I will thankfully not have to do 30 grades!
#FlowWithUs: like the background but the player pics don't work with it. the box behind the players being a lot lighter doesn't help. lineup feels a bit too small. don't like the effect on starting XI. good idea but a little off.

taking credit for this because I’m not watching now 🙃

being a superstitious sports fan is bad because I’ve now decided I can’t watch Spurs games because they only scored against Everton after I stopped watching.
