Who rotates and who doesn't: MLS
Lineup-consistency leaderboards for every MLS club, computed from confirmed official lineups across the last 10 matches. Continuity measures how much of the starting XI carries over between consecutive matches. 100% = unchanged, 0% = wholesale changes. Per-unit splits surface where managers stick (and where they tinker).
Clubs whose 11 changes least, match-to-match.

Continuity is computed pairwise across consecutive MLS matches in this window. Each pair scores |shared starters| / max(|A|, |B|), symmetric and formation-agnostic. The club's rate is the average across all consecutive pairs.
Per-unit continuity restricts the comparison to that position group only (defenders, midfielders, forwards, goalkeeper), so a back-line shuffle doesn't depress the midfield score and vice versa. Iron Elevens flag clubs that named an identical XI in back-to-back fixtures.
Minimum sample size: 5 matches. Data refreshes hourly off the AF sync daemon.
