The Seattle Sounders are hot, having earned 27 points in their past 13 games. They weathered the storm of early season lineup nightmares and are tied for 1st in the West on points. This is a far cry from the first 10 matches of the season in which the team only earned 10 points. With 10 matches to go before the playoffs, it seems to be a good time to look at this team and ask ourselves what we have in store for the reason of the season.
With the dust having settled after the transfer window, there appears to be a clear ideal XI with a couple players sprinkled in for depth-with-no-drop-off.
