I've been watching Kenny Cooper all season and he has impressed me. I like his style of play and striking ability. What do you guys think? I would love to see him on the National Team as a STARTER alongside Jozy. Anyone else?

I don't know about starting, but i definitely want to see him called up for the foreseeable future. While he has impressed me, half an MLS season is not a big enough sample size for me to put him in my starting lineup.

Just randomly as I'm watching the X games, i cannot believe there used to be a soccer field under all that dirt. While its actually a pretty good watch everytime i see the "field" i get a little sad at the disrespect the ground which showcases the beautiful game is shown.

I really like him. He needs to be the starting forward.

well seeing how badly EJ, Ching, TT have been doing in that role. Why not ?
or just bring back McBride...Fecking Rossi..would've been perfect :mad:

No head game? Have you seen this goal? You know he's tied for the leagues leading goal scorer right? If tjhe man gets it in the net, who cares how it got there! Obviously he's doing something right!

Yeah ..I've seen the guy for a few years now..HE SUCKS IN THE AIR..i don't care about one clip. A guy his size ?? he should be banging them in, all the time with his head. I watched him, get his feet taken out by a guy 5'7. He needs to get over to europe and have some real coaching. Where he can work on his weakness. Hey McBride had terrible feet until he went to England. It did wonders for him

But he was in the Man U reserves since he was 18.

Hey if you think he's good in the air, so be it. I think he's TERRIBLE . I guess we don't agree. That's life

I've not seen him enough to agree/disagree with you. Just that one goal and that he's the leading goal scorer for the league. I would have to see a couple of complete games of him instead of highlights to really have an opinion.
