MLS goal-scoring record holder Josef Martinez
MLS goal-scoring record holder Josef Martinez

31 goals and 5 assists were record-breaking numbers by Josef Martinez. A season in which Josef Martinez and Atlanta United captured the 2018 MLS CUP. It was a season in which, the entire world noticed who Josef Martinez was. The argument can be made Josef Martinez was made looked good due to the system that was in play by Gerardo "Tata" Martinez. A system which favoured the counter-attack, and saw Miguel Almiron constantly feed him tremendous quality chances.

This season has seen Josef Martinez slow down a bit, having scored only 1 goal from 4 appearances. This, however, can be said about the entire Atlanta United squad. With incoming manager Frank De Boer having failed to inspire and implement his own style of play with Atlanta.

Josef Martinez remains one of Major League Soccer best players. When you score 31 goals in a regular season, you deserve to be recognized as one of the best players.
