New England Revolution midfielder Carles Gil has been named Major League Soccer’s Player of the Year. Gil had a league-best 18 assists, as well as four goals, and captained the Revolution to a historic season. New England won the Supporters’ Shield with a league-record 73 points. Eight of Gil’s assists were on game-winning goals. Gil was sidelined for most of last season because of a bone spur and was honored this year as the league’s Comeback Player of the Year.
