Seattle Sounders vs. 2019: End-of-season player ratings, #4 and #3

Regular Season: 6.682 in 22 appearances - Playoffs: 7.500 in 4 appearances

MOTM = 4 High = 9 Low = 5

At fourth on the countdown is Karl Gustav Johan Svensson, a player who went from almost an afterthought China pick up to one I was pleading for the team to re-sign last year. In 2019, he was one of the best players on the team and was huge in big moments. Goose being on the field (and paired with Cristian Roldan) was a recipe for Sounders wins. Svensson doesn’t always get the accolades (in his own words, he “shovels the shit”) but he was an absolutely massive defender for Seattle.
