Christmas is this Friday. I thought it would be fun to write a letter to Santa Claus asking for some new players for the
Dear Santa,
I just want to say that 2020 has been a really weird year. I know that the Sounders made MLS Cup and that was cool and all, but then we lost. I’m not super mad about that because I had a lot of fun supporting the team this year and it was a good distraction from everything else going on. As we’re accustomed to in MLS, approximately 134 minutes after the final whistle of MLS Cup you had to announce which players are out of contract and which players have contract options.
Currently signed: Raul Ruidiaz, Will Bruin, Alfonso Ocampo-Chavez
How it looks now: This is probably the position where the Sounders are most set, especially if they’re sticking to the 4-2-3-1 formation they’ve played almost exclusively under Brian Schmetzer. Chances are the Sounders aren’t going to be looking for anymore forwards unless something changes.
Raúl Ruidíaz is the unquestioned starter and Will Bruin is his primary backup. Jordan Morris is also a perfectly capable No. 9 if the need arises. The wild card is Ocampo-Chavez, who has been playing more on the wing since turning pro.
