    Not to take anything away from Umar, he's a great player but I feel they should split this award into two categories, an Offensive and Defensive award, I feel like strikers are at an edge because they have more apparent stats, congrats to Umar but a change would be nice.

      It's be hard go keep tracks stats for defenders especially when there could be up to five defenders playing at one time for each team

      @Wes Fox But there are many awards for football. The top of each positions essentially gets a major award. So yeah, they should have 4 - top goalkeeper, top fullback, top midfielder, and top forward.

      Because sometimes it’s really the defenders that make the team solid

      It’s always cool to see who you used to play against or with make it to the big leagues. My old neighbor plays with Alex Morgan her names Kelsey turnbow and then 3 of my buddies from Boise nationals play in mls

    • @abdulhairerahaman8332
      @abdulhairerahaman8332 3 роки тому

      Bro he graduated from Right to dream academy and this academy has produced some great talents in Europe. Kudus Mohammed of Ajax is a typical example. He graduated from Right to Dream he’s at Netherlands bossing up midfields. So this boy can last in Europe. It is a matter of adaptation. Y’all underate American talents too much

      Concord™ The boarding schools recruit and these kids are really really good. Most normal highschools arent as good.

    • @TheUnknownGreyGuy
      @TheUnknownGreyGuy 7 років тому +15

      No. You're wrong. He plays in a terrible prep league and in fact, many schools that are public could hold up what he got to offer. This is coming from a player in a top 15 team in Texas, one of the better states for soccer

    • @rtully
      @rtully 7 років тому +7
