| 2009 - Sarkodie needs to play against better skilled players, he needs to be pushed. The Hoosiers captain just looked uninterested at some points. He is better then the NCAA and it showed in games. The MLS is ready for him, aslong as he can keep up to the speed he will be a great player in this league. His crossing and passing has improved in the last few seasons and can be an attacking threat as a fullback 2008 - Ofori is an intelligent, athletic, skilled defender who could be involved in the 2009 Gen Adidas class. It wouldnt suprise me if you see the team drafting him try him at a few positions (d-mid, right back) as his size is less than to be desired at the centre back position. But what he lacks in height, he makes up for it with his ability to shut down attackers with speed and strength. Ofori has been with the U.S. national program since 2003. 2007 First team Big Ten 2005 NSCAA/Adidas National Youth Player of the Year | |
