VMP 2016 Final Countdown #13: Eriq Zavaleta
Duncan: 15 – Did a decent job at the back alongside Moor. Unspectacular, generally unmemorable, but those are both good things for defenders. The nifty nephew (don’t call him that though) had himself a decent season really didn’t he? not at first obviously, but as the season wore on and after Perquis had left he got…

VMP 2016 Final Countdown #14: Armando Cooper
Kristin: 12 – While maddening at times, the pros outweigh the cons to his presence on the pitch. Often hot-tempered (but only one yellow card) and loves that extra touch, but for the most part they’re better with him on the pitch. Armando Cooper was part of the summer injection of talent (along with Tosaint…

VMP 2016 Final Countdown #15: Alex Bono
Kristin: 17 – TFC’s big SuperDraft grab from 2015 – wanders more than I’d like, but settled in and did a good job of subbing in for Irwin. Not a No. 1 keeper yet; but the potential is there. From TFCII to the big leagues in the blink of an eye! That’s basically what happened…

VMP 2016 Final Countdown #16 – Marky Delgado
Mark: 13 – Inconsistent. Some games he looked great, others pedestrian. Is he going to be a starter? He is. No wait, he’s not, but he is. We’ll say a mix of beneficiary of injuries and a victim of the rotation but by the end of the season, he was often one of the first sacrifices…

VMP 2016 Final Countdown #17 – Jordan Hamilton
Kristin: 21 – Showed well in the summer when the team was struck by injury, still waiting for his breakout moment. Wow I put Jordan at 21? Actually I’m good with that – though I could have easily put him a bit higher, his ranking is less on his quality than on his playing time.…

VMP 2016 Final Countdown #18: Jay Chapman
Duncan: 14 – Showed glimpses of talent, then crucially got a long run of games and once he seemed settled in and believed that he belonged there he looked very very good indeed. It’d be a gamble to try him as the creative midfielder TFC need rather than bringing someone else in, but I wouldn’t be…

VMP 2016 Final Countdown #19: Tsubasa Endoh
Tony: 16 – More promising than Tokyo railway station vending machine panties For the Vocal Minority crew, Endoh was going to be a success no matter what. He’s from Japan! We’ve not had a Japanese fella here! VENDING MACHINE PANTIES!!! Seriously, if you drew a picture of “Japanese Football Player 1.0” it’s Endoh. Slight build? Check.…

VMP 2016 Final Countdown #20 – Josh Williams
Tony: 20 – Just kind of drifted off into the ether after a useful 2015 Bloodclot! Was a former health concern of Josh Williams. Despite 24 appearances in 2016, it’s almost like Josh Williams wasn’t here. As the younger duo of Hagglund and Zavaleta improved and moved into the starter’s roles, Williams gradually shifted further down…

VMP 2016 Final Countdown #21: Ashtone Morgan
Kristin: 16 – The nasty leftback that always seems to get left back. Huge fan, think his conversion to winger can’t come soon enough. I’ve been a fan of Ashtone Morgan since his academy days and was thrilled when he joined the first team back in 2011. In the early years he saw a fair…

VMP 2016 Final Countdown #22: Damien Perquis
Duncan – 19 The French Polish Darren O’Dea. Paid too much, does some good stuff, not good enough to be the guy to pull the whole defence together, but when there’s somebody else to do that, all of a sudden he doesn’t look that bad. After a pretty crap 2015, I was really hoping Bezbatchenko…
