Seattle Sounders climb to No. 1 in Week 7 MLS Power Rankings

The Seattle Sounders were named the top team in the league in MLSsoccer.com’s Week 7 Power Rankings on Monday.

“The Sounders are deservedly in the Concacaf Champions League Final and, if we’re being brave and honest here, they’re the favorites against Liga MX’s Pumas,” wrote MLSsoccer.com’s J. Sam Jones. ” Especially if they’re healthy. Right on the doorstep of this great white whale for MLS teams, now it’s about getting the job done at all costs. Play the academy kids in the regular season if you have to. You’re on the verge of the biggest win for any MLS club in league history. Go out and get it.”
