@hworkdedication not to defend dempsey but he plays for fulham a mid table team where he is the star. he earns most of his goals. chicharo is good but most of his goals are on poaching and he plays for man u were there are tones of players with talent and ability that other teams have to worry about.

@MrFloridamarlins34 No. Brek Shea.

@minayaification Chicharito is just a classic poacher.. But he does it very well (hence the 20 goals).

@oakland510619 For the record, The 5-0 game is not credited by FIFA as the USA officially registered their u-23 team for the competition.

[MrFloridamarlins34]

Agudelo is the first footballer for the USA who has superstar potential

I'm so glad he scored this goal because if he didn't we might not have kept him.

[minayaification]

yeah yeah chicharito 20 goals in debut but what kind of goals were they? really simple tap ins. he even scores when he trips and falls down. and i bet u all his mex fans will say it was a wonder goal lol he fell. he cant dribble or meg players like villa,benzema, or suarez. has chicharito scored a screamer? or dribbled past 4 defenders? no didnt think so

@oakland510619, GIo's goal was beautiful, but come on, a volley from outside the box is much nicer.

new york needs to give him a chance

[oakland510619]

@tottithebeast but then we beat u guys 5-0 in 09 and then came back 4-2 in the last gold cup with a chip that was better then that volley
