Hands up if you had him in your team though
BL4CKnRED led this round, putting up 94 points.
That pushed BL4CKnRED back to the top of the overall table, where they now sit with a 12-point lead.
Minnesota’s Dayne St. Clair ($5.5) saved a penalty (ball don’t lie) and kept a clean sheet against the Metros, leading the position with 15 points. Behind him were William Yarbrough (COL, $8.4), who kept a clean sheet on the way to 10 points, and Gabriel Slonina (CHI, $8.0), who did the same for 9 points. For DCU, Bill Hamid ($8.5) scored 2 points.
Bill Tuiloma (POR, $6.0) scored a goal and kept a clean sheet on the way to 17 points, leading the defenders and all players. Trailing him were Lucas Esteves (COL, $7.2), who sored 13 points on a clean sheet and an assist, and Rafael Czichos (CHI, $8.5), who kept a clean sheet and scored 12 points. The United defense was led by Julian Gressel ($8.4) with 5 points, followed by Steven Birnbaum ($6.8) with 3, Brad Smith ($7.4) with 2, and the pair of Andy Najar ($7.2) and Brendan Hines-Ike ($6.7) with 1.
Columbus’ Lucas Zelarayan (CLB, $10.5) led the midfielders with a goal, an assist, and 15 points, ahead of Mark-Anthony Kaye (COL, $8.5), who scored a goal and 13 points. Derrick Etienne (CLB, $7.0) rounded out the top three with a goal, an assist, and 12 points. For D.C., the midfield featured Drew Skundrich ($6.7) with 4 points, and both Edison Flores ($7.2) and Adrien Perez ($4.5) with 3,
There was a tie at the top for the forwards, with both Brandon Vazquez (CIN, $6.6) and Carlos Quintero (HOU, $7.2) scoring two goals and 13 points. Hot on their heels was Talles Magno (NYC, $6.6), who scored 12 points on the strength of a goal and an assist. United’s scoring forwards were Ola Kamara ($9.2) with 3 points, and Michael Estrada ($8.7) and Nigel Robertha ($7.0) with 1 each.
Maxime Crepeau (LA, $8.1) looks great in goal at home against the league’s most feeble attack in terms of xG, Vancouver. I like Will Ormsberg (CHI, $6.5) as a budget defense option at Kansas City, and Emanuel Reynoso (MIN, $8.5) in the midfield at home against Sieve San Jose. At forward, through gritted teeth I suggest Toronto’s Jesus Jimenez ($9.0), he of two goals and an assist in three games, at home against DCU.
