Atlanta United: Best ever in MLS?

The Five Stripes were able to deliver one of the best-ever seasons in Major League Soccer history in 2018 with 69 points — tied with Toronto FC of 2017 for the second-highest point total — and an MLS Cup to put the cherry on top of a record-breaking campaign.

The accomplishments of the 2018 Five Stripes is nothing short of remarkable, and it deservedly puts the 2018 Atlanta United squad in the conversation for the best team to ever take the field in MLS history.

In the 2017 season, Toronto FC grabbed the title of best-ever team in MLS with a record-breaking 69 points, which would be broken by the New York Red Bulls in 2018 with 71 points, an MLS Cup, and taking home the 2017 Canadian Championship.
