It takes a special performance to have a team place more than two or three players in the SBI MLS Best XI, but the Portland Timbers turned in one of those kind of performances in their win against the Houston Dynamo.
Jamaican forward Ryan Johnson leads a group of four Timbers on this Week’s SBI MLS Best XI, with midfielder Diego Chara among those earning plaudits for his outstanding efforts against the Dynamo.
Reigning SBI MLS Player of the Week Daniel Paladini is joined on the squad by teammate Maicon Santos after the two combined for a pair of late goals to help the Fire beat the New York Red Bulls.
Red-hot Sporting Kansas City also placed two players on the team, including striker Claudio Bieler, who delivered the game-winning goal against D.C. United.
Here is the SBI MLS Best XI for Week Six:
