ARENA ENTERS YEAR THREE AT HELM OF REVOLUTION

Bruce Arena continues climbing the MLS record books in what is now his
17th MLS season as a head coach. Already the winningest active coach
in MLS, he eclipsed the late Sigi Schmid last season for most MLS Cup
Playoff games coached (54).
Arena owns 255 combined regular season and postseason wins in MLS.
In 2019, he became the second head coach in MLS history to eclipse 700
regular season points earned, joining Sigi Schmid (843). With an all-time
regular season record of 220-132-107 (18-11-18 with New England), Arena
ranks second in league history in regular season wins and points earned.

The five-time MLS Cup champion last year improved his all-time playoff
record to 35-13-6, and maintained his undefeated record in playoff games
where his teams score first (29-0-3). His 35 playoff wins are the most alltime. Arena has reached the conference finals eight times in his career,
and advanced to MLS Cup seven times in his previous 16 seasons.

   Arena’s five MLS Cup victories are unlikely to rivaled anytime soon, as no
   other active coach has more than two trophies under their belt. The only
   other active MLS coaches with MLS Cup wins are Bob Bradley (1998),
   Caleb Porter (2015 & 2020), Brian Schmetzer (2016 & 2019), and Greg
   Vanney (2017).
