He wins most of his 50/50 challenges, he rarely loses the ball, and controls the game. He can play in any league in the world, I'll be surprised if Freddy stays more than a year.

I agree with the article 100%, and do not believe he will be here next season. Montero came into the league with a big reputation and is living up to it.

I think that game settled in their minds that it's not noise pumping, they're just used to non-Seattle fans (who generally have little girly lungs. Har!) That being said, Sounders matches are a whole new level of intensity, bloodthirstiness, stamina and discipline from us Seattleites. I too hope our away games don't falter, but there's no question Sounders have a crazy home field advantage.

I think it should be stopped at 20 for a period of time to allow MLS to re-evaluate the league and the stability of smaller market teams. Quality has not gone down.

But Montero wouldn't be the first talented player to have trouble breaking into a South American national side. You’re right about the irony.

OY VEY. I'm not disputing this, just mentioning the irony. A guy who cannot even get a call up for Colombia’s most critical qualifiers is the poster child of our league. OY VEY.
