Most Starts

Another stat, this time, most starts for Kansas City. In league play just two players hit the 100 appearance mark this past season. Matt Besler and Jimmy Nielsen both hit the century mark for starts in league play. Besler finishes the season behind Nielsen, but again is the current active leader and should pass Nielsen in the 2014 season. Also next season we should see four more players hit the mark. Graham Zusi and Chance Myers are just 9 appearances away from 100. While Seth Sinovic is 19 and Aurelien Collin is 22, so all four should hit 100 this coming season.

Also joining the list was the departed Kei Kamara. He made 11 starts in all competitions before moving to Middlesbrough, finishing with 108. A late season addition to the list was Seth Sinovic who finished the season with 102 starts in all competitions. Next season will see at least one addition, in Aurelien Collin who sits just one appearance short of 100. After him is CJ Sapong on 77, he made 23 starts in all competitions this year, which would be enough in 2014 to see him make the list as well.

Hoping Besler and Zusi will be topping that list in a few seasons!
