U15 MLS Flex Predictions & Players to Watch

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>MLSNext Flex is set to Kick Off May 9th in Maryland. For many clubs they need to win their group in order to qualify for playoffs. My prediction is MLS Academy teams dominate and win every single group. I hope I'm wrong but that's just how I see the way this goes. Here are the teams that I think will win their group as well as some players to look out for during the tournament in the U15 age group:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group A Winners: [program_tooltip program_id='283612' first='Austin' last='FC'] </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players to Watch: Cruz Garcia, [player_tooltip player_id='210659' first='Roberto' last='Monarres'] </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group B Winners: Chicago Fire</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players to Watch: Finn McCrarey, Jason Nemo </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group C Winners: [program_tooltip program_id='283736' first='San' last='Jose Earthquakes'] </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players to Watch: [player_tooltip player_id='254744' first='Jeffrey' last='Lara'], Orion Joliff, [player_tooltip player_id='216004' first='Rocky' last='Romell'] III, [player_tooltip player_id='216009' first='Ezra' last='Mahteme'] </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group D Winners: LAFC </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Player to Watch: Lissandro Torres </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group E Winners: Sporting Kansas City </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players to Watch: Brady Krysiewicz, Luca Antongirolani </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group F Winners: New England Revolution</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Player to Watch: Roman Radotic-Woolfolk </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group G Winner: Columbis Crewe </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players to Watch: Jorge Salmeron, Myles Johnson </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group H Winner: St Louis City </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players to Watch: Owen Jorgensen, Kane Kraus </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group I Winners: [program_tooltip program_id='283671' first='LA' last='Galaxy'] </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players to Watch: [player_tooltip player_id='223679' first='Ikenna' last='Chidebe'], [player_tooltip player_id='223677' first='Juan' last='Carlos Martinez'], [player_tooltip player_id='223670' first='Vicente' last='Garcia'] </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group J Winners: Colorado Rapids </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players to Watch: Nathan Tchoumba, Jax Padgett </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group K Winners: Philadelphia Union </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players to Watch: Javier Linares, Logan Huffman, Sam Gallego, Timoni Gbalajobi, Landon Mulvenna </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group M Winners: [program_tooltip program_id='283648' first='FC' last='Dallas'] </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players to Watch: Daniel Orta, [player_tooltip player_id='210676' first='Tito' last='Salas'] </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group N Winners: Charlotte FC </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players to Watch: Jeremiah Alexander-Munoz, Javier Sarmiento </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group O Winners: Atlanta United </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players to Watch: Noe Santillan</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Group P Winners: New York Red Bull </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players to Watch: Eric Lodge </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
