If you were busy and couldn't catch the last seven months of the MLS season, here’s what you missed: LAFC and NYCFC crushed it, Cincinnati did the opposite and everyone else was more or less the same, which is why 60 percent of teams make the playoffs. You also missed some fiendishly good goals and saves.

Not to worry: MLS released its nominees for both the AT&T Goal of the Year and the Allstate Save of the Year on Wednesday. 

Last season, Zlatan Ibrahimović took home goal honors, and the big Swede is again nominated (it’s another ridiculous strike against rival LAFC). But there’s stern completion from the likes of Wayne Rooney and Carlos Vela. 

Seattle’s Stefan Frei won Save of the Year last year and also has the chance to repeat, although I think it’ll go to either Jesse Gonzalez, Nick Rimando or Bill Hamid.
