Atlanta United: With playoffs approaching, Miles Robinson absence disastrous

The first round of the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs begins this Saturday at 1:00 PM, with Atlanta United hosting the New England Revolution. Atlanta are in the middle of their postseason preparation. Yet, the Five Stripes may play this first game (or more depending on the result) without their second-best player.

No one can argue that reigning league MVP Josef Martinez is the team’s most important player. Yet, Miles Robinson is almost equally as critical to this Atlanta United team. His play this season has been a revelation and a key reason for the team’s successes throughout the year.
