Curious, I decided to look at what formations are the most popular in MLS and if there had indeed been a shift to the 4-1-2-1-2 diamond formation. One thing to note is the data used (courtesy of Opta) refers only to how teams start a game and does not account for any in-game tactical changes.
It is still very early in the season, but there has indeed been a noticeable shift towards the 4-1-2-1-2. This trend will certainly be worth watching as the season goes along.
