    Sj still owns 20% sell on.... when was the last time Liga mx sold a player for more than 10 million abroad? Just wondering if it's rare.

    He wasn't scoring goals like that in SJ.

    Seems to have settled in and is playing with a real high level of confidence.

    Cade decided he is no longer in who-hit-most-post-and-crossbar competition.

    How’s that Spanish coming along for Cade? Probably doesn’t matter if he keeps banging in goals of that quality. :D

    I know he has a Mexican mother but he’s well on his way to being the most beloved Gringo in Liga MX since Beasley.

    Would love if he keeps it up. If he does, I could see him getting sold a year from now, but given his up and down career in MLS, he’s better off staying in Liga MX for a couple years to build some consistency.

    His highlight real from SJ is filthy. It's just that his last season+ was disappointing in terms of production.

    That goal is what he is all about, IMHO. He runs at defenders and what happens next looks to be getting better. I see a very bright future. And he has size. He's scary.

    His physical profile should allow him to make a 26 man roster.

    It’s so funny how his best move is dancing around the ball and shifting his weight, not actually dribbling the ball with his foot.

    Definitely unexpected given the fact that he languished in San Jose for a few years and that Liga Mx is clearly a cut above. But man is he putting up numbers. Maybe the bigger crowds and focus are spurring him on.

    Competition is tougher. He earned that spot.

    He's being coached by Gago...he's learning something of the game at a high level.

    Fair he is only 20yrs old, but between 17-20yrs old at San Jose he didn’t seem to improve much is more of the point rather than him being up and down. His ups were the flashes of skill he’d show for a few games in a row, and then wouldn’t do much the rest of the games.

    Because lack of competition, not just with your own teammates. San Jose itself is a sorry-ash team for many years.

    Cade keeps making nice moves and weaving dribbles and then can’t lay it off. Yeesh.

    His PK attempt just landed in my front yard.

    Yea that probably stifled his development a bit. Given how good Tsakris looks for the U20’s and how invisible he looks for San Jose this season I do hope he makes it over to the Eredivisie or Belgium soon.

    Scored very late to earn a draw:





    He scored his PK, but they lost in PKs 5-4.
