Balogan is a bit like peak Jozy Altidore in that regard, except Balogan has more lateral quickness and so far seems to make more and better runs off the ball.

Jozy could retain, turn and get off driving shots, but was beefier, like a Junior Romelo Lukaku.

Balogan has all of that in his kit bag, but makes great diagonal runs in the box, and is more active looking for space than either of the other 2 guys.  Very impressed.

Plus, Pepi did a fine job in his cameo.  He's super-motivated, too.  And didn't a couple other guys like Dike have pretty good years in the Championship, and lower European leagues?

I feel like moving Reyna to a more central role, and having a couple legitimate guys at the 9 makes this a really dangerous, Top 10 type of offense [I]and midfield [/I]in the World.

We need work on defense, and more depth at the left and right back positions (Scally was pretty good, especially for a 20 year old), but we are shaping up as a dangerous squad to maybe make the Final Four of Copa America next summer.
