Episode 386: What Went Wrong for Atlanta United ft Sydney from Scarves and Spikes

In this episode of the Designated Players Podcast, we are back and this week we are joined by Sydney Hunte from Scarves and Spikes to help us break down what went wrong for Atlanta United. Where do you begin with this team but evidently it will have to be somewhere and we're here to point out a few reasons why the team missed the playoffs this year. Hopefully we won't be making this episode next season. Let us know your thoughts!
