I don't care about minor league fields, I don't care about the fact Onalfo blew up his defense. Even when KC had Garcia, Burciaga and other great guys around him in defense (with Zavignan in front) ... their team defense has been marginal. It is great that Conrad scores a few goals for the team, but he is AWOL on too many defensive plays (esp on set pieces). Jimmy Conrad is the most overrated defender in MLS.

Defender of the Year is 0 points and Altidore is only a 1/2 point. You got the right price, but the wrong team - that's 1/2. Conrad is just sour grapes... I only see 4 points for you.

Besides, Lee Nguyen moved this summer to Randers, so he did get transferred from PSV. that counts, right? 1/2 a point for the Lee Nguyen thing and it wasnt Saragosa, but it was Arturo Alvarez they got rid of and traded an allocation to Colorado (Rocky Mtns) for Bruno Guarda (Dallas-bred Texans player also).Yo predicted it, just got a few players wrong and the coach was turned over.
