VMP Final Countdown 2017: Number 2 – Michael Bradley
Highest: 1 Lowest: 8 Average ranking: 2.52 (*Editor’s note: Bradley & Altidore were tied for average ranking score, but Bradley had more Number 1 votes, therefore he’s in second*) Duncan: 3 Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. What to say about Michael Bradley. I really shouldn’t have let myself get stuck with writing this one as it should be full of good...
VMP Final Countdown 2017: Number 7 – Drew Moor
Highest: 5 Lowest: 14 Average ranking: 9.12 Duncan: 11 – Bit of a rough year for Drew. Finding out about heart issues can’t be a fun time, and when he got back from that, he never quite looked as good as he did before. Looked just a bit slow which left him having to make last ditch tackles, or blocks which is always a dangerous situation for a defender to put himself in and for a while there towards the end of the season...
VMP Final Countdown 2017: Number 10 – Jonathan Osorio
Highest: 6 Lowest: 13 Average ranking: 10.72 Duncan: 13 – 2016 was an alright year for Osorio, without being the big leap forward we might have hoped for, could that happen in 2017? Not really no.

Bad news for Osorio: It was when Marky Delgado was tried in...

After last week’s momentous news, Mark had to rest his hamstring so is SuperMissing for this SuperEpisode. Tony? well, we’ll let you know when he can make one.

Nothing big to talk about this week, so instead we talk about a bunch of little things, of varying relevance, Beitashour, pre season, Voyageurs cup, Young Nana, Kyle Bekker, Cyle...
VMP Final Countdown 2017: Number 17 – Raheem Edwards
Highest: 9 Lowest: 21 Average ranking: 16.04 Duncan: 12 – 2016 saw Edwards barely play, but look really good when he did, so I was thrilled when he started getting minutes early in this season, and then, mainly due to injuries forcing Justin Morrow out of the left back position, continue to get minutes for a good chunk of time. He did not look out of place at all, even when playing nominally as a wing back, looking ok enough...
