Ok, so I'm making an effort to get back into MLS a couple of years after completely losing interest in the Revolution. I've watched a couple of games and the quality has clearly gone way up since I last payed attention. Now I'd be grateful if some of you could comment on who the exciting players to watch are ... Bunbury, Agudelo and Najar are already on my radar. Who else?
Ryan Smith (KC) is just getting healthy. He is fun to watch with the ball at his feet (unless you are an opposing defender, that is).
My suggestion isn't to watch a player, but to watch the following teams: Real Salt Lake: probably one of the best passing and fluid teams in MLS history. Sporting KC: They are just fun to watch. Score a bunch of goals and give up a bunch of goals. Vancouver Whitecaps: Their games so far have had a bit of everything.
Teal Bundbury looks like a pretty damn good prospect As a NYRB fan I'm looking forward to see the progress of Agudelo and Ream. Their play this year can staple them into permanent starting roles for team USA.
Might seem sort of obvious since he won the Golden Boot last year, but Chris Wondolowski is always a pleasure to watch. Hustles his ass off, makes great runs into the box and always gets quality chances (even if he's missed a few this year so far). A good player to keep an eye on.
Hey look a Fellow Rhode Islander!!! Alright guy since youre also a revs fan ill just break down the newer players for us(new England): Soares in defense - hes a rookie but he reminds me alot of parkhurst, in the sense that hes got a lot of potential is a good player. Domi - i dont know much about him, he plays alright i mean maybe i was just expecting something more from a guy coming out of a good carreer in europe but hes alright, hes a midfield/defender. Dabo - dont know much, too busy nursing his "injuries" already cant stand him. Lekic - just signed, heard hes sauce. looking forward for him to add strength to the offense which we desperatly need. Cochrane - hes a pretty good defender, hes been in the league a few years already. if you cant find him on the field look for the porn/cop mustache. Thats a breakdown of some of the players for the revs, its wicked early so i honestly am dozing off and my memory isnt with me right now, if i remember more ill come back and tell you. again good to see another person from the 401 here. As long as we finish ahead of, and beat philly im happy.
