Players in Major League Soccer believe that Portland has the best atmosphere in the league and that Timbers midfielder Darlington Nagbe is the most underrated player in MLS.

ESPN recently conducted a survey where they asked 123 current players, under the condition of anonymity, a series of questions about the league and its players.

Forty two percent of the players surveyed said that Portland had the "best/most intimidating atmosphere" in MLS. Kansas City finished second with 28 percent of the votes, while Seattle finished third with 21 percent.

Players were also asked to vote on the most overrated and underrated players in the league.

Nagbe and the New York Red Bulls' Dax McCarty were voted as the most underrated players in MLS. Timbers midfielder Diego Chara also finished near the top on the list of the most underrated players in the league.

The respondents said that New York City FC's Mix Diskerud was the most overrated player in MLS, slightly ahead of Toronto FC's Jozy Altidore.
