Guzan had much less in front of him and is supposedly entertaining offers from Europe. He’s ready to be the next great American keeper. Onstad plays behind great defenders and a defensive-first team philosophy. Record be damned, Guzan was much better.

GAA doesn’t tell the whole story. Onstad has the most organized defense in the league playing in front of him.

I hate to disagree, but I think Guzan deserved it. His defense wasnt nearly as good as Onstads and he faced more shots, had more saves, and had a better record.

But if you look at it, Bouna Condoul was much busier and played every game for his team.

Not kidding. Chivas finished 1 point above Houston.

Coastal media bias.

you’re kidding right? you make it sound like Onstad is a FC Dallas guy (which I could understand you complaining if he was)…sure he was deserving but Guzan got more press and love from ESPN and he had some pretty damn good stats too.

Plus, more people voted for the club who was on top at the end of the season….that would be Chivas and not Houston.

And parkhurst will get Defender of the Year even though NE conceded only one less goal than FCD with a better GK and the best holding MF in the with Joseph.
All these awards are simply stupid, Blanco plays 14 games and he’s up for MVP and new commer….nuts.
