    I know he did not play a full year but I am surprised Blanco is not on this list.

    I know Angel scored a lot of goals but I would take Blanco for his overall impact on the game.

    ???? I dont get it. The 'impact' he had on Chicago's game was to take them ALMOST to where they were last season.

    Yeah, he's good but he only made up for the injured Fire players.

    Where were they before he was inserted in the line-up this year? Well outside the playoff race. With him they did make the playoffs and beat the Red Bulls where Angel was barely noticeable.

    edited - sorry for the poor memory but Chicago beat DC in the playoffs and Angel was barely noticeable against New England.

    Admittedly the man dives more times in a game than most Olympic divers do in any single competition but he can play whether you like the antics or not.
