Join us tonight for the #ATLSoccer chat on our Facebook page. Plenty to dig into from last weekend and we’ll start to look ahead to Minnesota on Sunday. It starts at 8pm.
One thing I’d like to get into tonight is the lineup in Minnesota. Who do you think will replace Carlos Carmona in the defensive midfield? Will Julian Gressel continue to start? Any other changes you predict? Let us know in the comments and join us tonight in the chat to discuss.
