Just several months away from the MLS All-Star game, the league has unveiled a list of players eligible to participate in this summer’s big match.

MLS unveiled an 176-player list on Tuesday featuring eight players from each team eligible for a fan vote. One goalkeeper, three defenders, four midfielders and two forwards will be determined by fan voting while the 11th, a forward, will be determined by the forward fans score the most goals with in this year’s EA Sports FIFA 17 until June 30.

A total of 24 players will be named to the roster which will be based on input from the fan vote, head coach Veljko Paunovic and MLS Commissioner Don Garber.

  1. I am glad that people care, I barely do and I am obsessed with anything US soccer.

    But it is an AllStar game, fair, non gimmicks, etc has nothing to do with it.
    Making money. That is all.

    I would guess that was the truth in baseball in the 1920s, or whenever they started theirs.

  2. 2 things about this are bugging the crap out of me….
    1) They’ve got players on this list who’ve played like sh!t or have missed significant time with injuries this year….Kljestan, Jones, Kaka, Zardes, Beckerman, etc…. Did the press just go though the rosters an pick names at random…Or pick names that they were familiar with?
    2) Instead of doing an on-line vote (link) you’ve got to download an app in order to participate. shouldn’t they have done both.

  3. “while the 11th, a forward, will be determined by the forward fans score the most goals with in this year’s EA Sports FIFA 17 until June 30”

    NOT a joke. They’re actually doing this.
