2022 Atlanta United Season Preview

Atlanta United turned a dismal 2021 into a Cinderella story with the arrival of manager Gonzalo Pineda last summer, and their offseason has been about continuing that upward momentum. The Five Stripes have made some significant personnel changes and they’re diving into the 2022 season with one of the most high-powered attacks in the league. The likes of Josef Martinez, Luiz Araújo, Marcelino Moreno, and Thiago Almada (MAMA) form a quartet which will be a nightmare for defenders, while Pineda is focused on improving the entire group’s form and chemistry. If Gonzo’s offseason ideas coupled with this deeper lineup can truly gel, then more silverware could be in the immediate future.
