Next big thing to come out of the MLS: Brian Reynolds. He’s a RB currently in the FC Dallas system but is being monitored by tons of teams. He’s tall (6’ 3”), fast as hell, strong, and athletic. The best part about him though is he’s smart. He doesn’t rely on his physical attributes to be good. He’s also a great dribbler and a crosser.

Obviously highlights don’t tell the whole story but here’s a good highlight video from this year (kind of long at 4 minutes). What’s so impressive to me is he didn’t even come into the year as a starter. Dallas still had Reggie Cannon who was one of the best RBs in the league before being sold into Boavista (Lille system) and is now being monitored by Benfica. Cannon was sold in early September. In those 4ish months, Reynolds has established himself in this league and was able to do what he did in that video. Guy is going to be the next Davies and have a similar impact in a few years or at least has the potential to. The biggest team I’ve seen him linked to is Juve but I imagine he goes to Germany.
