-- Do NOT add new players before their signing is officially announced by the club
-- and do NOT assign unreferenced jersey numbers as well.
-- Do NOT create articles for new draft picks until they make either their MLS or U.S. Open Cup debut, and do not add red wikilinks to these players as it prevents the creation of articles by people who don't understand the WP:FOOTY notability guidelines
– Players with international caps should NOT be bolded – as per Wikipedia:WikiProject_Football/Clubs
– This is Wikipedia, not a football gazette.
– Any unconfirmed and unsourced signing/transfer will be reverted at sight.
– Thanks in advance.

In the championship stage, the eight teams play a [[single-elimination tournament]]. Each tie is played on a home-and-away [[two-legged tie|two-legged]] basis. The [[away goals rule]] is used if the aggregate score is level after normal time of the second leg, but not after [[extra time (association football)|extra time]], and so a tie is decided by [[penalty shoot-out (association football)|penalty shoot-out]] if the aggregate score is level after extra time of the second leg.<ref name="CONCACAF regulations">{{cite web|url=http://www.concacaf.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/CCL1314-Regulations060313pdf.pdf|title=CONCACAF Champions League Regulations 2013/2014|publisher=CONCACAF.com|access-date=October 26, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131108043304/http://www.concacaf.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/CCL1314-Regulations060313pdf.pdf|archive-date=November 8, 2013|url-status=dead|df=mdy-all}}</ref>
