Attacking Midfielders
New England Revolution. BRANDON BYE. 8.0. The rookie has shown versatility by starting games at right back, wing back, and right midfield this year. He provides several tactical options off the bench and has shown the stamina to go a full 90 minutes. It will be fun to watch him continue to improve.. RM/RB
Attacking Midfielder. New England Revolution. DIEGO FAGUNDEZ. 8.5. Fagundez made history by becoming the youngest MLS players to make 200 appearances and earn 150 starts. His five goals and six assists this season show his involvement with the offense. Early on, he was the Revs biggest scoring threat. Now, he has evolved into more of a playmaker with the ability to generate quality chances. The lower-than-anticipated score stems from his lack-of-discipline and his poor ball security. At times, Fagundez tries to do too much and is prone to making costly turnovers. </p>
KELYN ROWE. 7.0. It’s been a disappointing season for Rowe, to say the least. Once a USMNT target, Rowe has withered away to a reserve role. He’s picked up the slack in recent weeks, but has yet to add to his assists total which has sat at two since early April. It will be interesting to see how Rowe’s role evolves in the second half of the season as the Revs look to revive his season.. Center Midfielder. New England Revolution
