Show Notes

In this episode of the Designated Players Podcast, we're talking about the hottest topics in MLS in recent news with talks of MLS 2 teams rebranding with local teams, followed by MLS' recent performances (or lack thereof) in CONCACAF Champions Cup, and finally ending with the potential new rule change decoupling the DP tag with the U22 initiative. We're focusing on the recent rebranding being performed by MLS Next Pro teams such as Ventura County and The Town. What does it mean for MLS, and is MLS trying to kill USL? We also talk the recent loses MLS sides have incurred recently to Liga MX sides in CCC, and whether or not this is a sign that MLS is not closing the gap. Lots of divisive topics so let us know what you think!
