9.0. The Revs’ lone All-Star representative, Zahibo has been a welcome addition to the New England team. He is the type of player New England has been looking for to replace Jermaine Jones after three seasons, and he has done so admirably. Zahibo’s height and speed are his main values, making him a perfect defender in the high press. Offensively, his involvement has ranged from chance creation on the back end to goal-scoring up front.
