Mike Jacobs has done a tremendous job as general manager of Nashville SC, leading a team that was an expansion side a season ago into the playoffs.

And now Jacobs, fresh off the signing of forward Aké Loba this week, has a Nashville SC side that is quickly turning from a defensive-oriented club to one with a potentially dangerous attack.

Last season, Nashville SC allowed just 22 goals in their maiden season in MLS but they began to come together as a unit late in the season.
