The third week of the MLS season saw a handful of teams earn their first victories of the season, and the key figures behind those victories are well-represented in SBI's MLS Best XI.
Thierry Henry was an easy pick after snatching up Player of the Week honors, but teammate Wilman Conde also draws recognition for being outstanding in his Red Bulls debut. Columbus midfielder Milovan Mirosevic didn't really impress in his Crew debut two weeks ago, but came back this past weekend with a virtuoso performance in midfield.
The biggest win of the weekend was delivered by Chivas USA, which upset Real Salt Lake in Utah, and two key figures behind the upset were goalkeeper Dan Kennedy and defender Rauwshan McKenzie, who both made our squad this week.
Here is a look at the complete SBI MLS Best XI for Week 3:
