Anyone happen to notice that Edu played, IMO, his best game this year last night... in a friendly... Where is this guy durring games that matter!? I know he started because of the yellow against shitcago, but he was all over the pitch last night.

maybe he realized that cause he wasn't named to the all star team that he better start playing better....he did give the ball away less last night

I was there. He was better, but still not that noticeable. He had a nice flying header in the box late, and seemed more aggressive, but i wouldn't write home about it. He still seems very tentative when tackling, compared to last year. He won't slide tackle at BMO any more.

He wasn't the MOM for me. That was Nana.

My MOM was Tyler Hemming...

He had one hell of an assignment trying to keep that speedy bastard in check down the wing last night - and did a hell of a job doing it...

Edu played a "spirited" game last night. At times he tried to do too much - but that can happen in a friendly...

Ricketts was excellent when he came on, and gave us an offensive spark...

I think Edu has been playing better over the past 4 or 5 games. I watched the USA/Argentina match on June 8 and he was a definite standout on the US roster filled with pretty good talent. Since then he has seemed a little more confident and it's showing IMO.

He also improved last year as the season went on. Maybe he's a slow starter?

yeap, Edu played pretty good last night. But Tyler Hemming was a beast in the back. He may have just found himself a little playing time on the A team. We'll see.

I though EDU had a great game in Chicago. I think he is starting find the form that made him so successfull last season. If thats the case then this team is looking good for the second half of the season.
