A Chance rankings

1 – New England – Points clear away from the pack means a blip in form still equals league lead

2 – Columbus Crew – Last year’s team would never have fought like this, and not have succeeded

3 – Los Angeles – Goals in buckets – concessions like the proverbial holes inside them.

4 – Toronto FC – Home is a fortress for TFC

5 – DC United – Even the defenders are scoring now.

6 – Real Salt Lake – Could make history and have winning record for the first time in team history next match.

7 – Chicago Fire – Slumping, wasting Blanco’s skill and looking out of sync

8 – New York Red Bull – Somehow, someway, getting it done without the big guns.

9 – Houston Dynamo – Still looking for solid production from forwards.

10 – Chivas USA – Have Chicago’s number well in hand

11 – Colorado Rapids – Uninspiring, but especially so in scoreless matches.

12 – FC Dallas – Hyndmann is working with some talent, but a new system is disruptive.

13 – Kansas City Wizards – Can’t seem to remember how to win.
14 – San Jose Earthquakes – At least they scored.
