In the third week of Rate the Players we saw quite the dip in ratings compared to the opening two weeks and for good reason. In the Houston Dynamo’s first defeat, the team looked absolutely dreadful in the second half. However, our top performers all contributed plenty in the first half which is what is worth mentioning. Before getting into too much, our attacking trio of players which made the Top Performers list, it should be noted that all of the forwards completely disappeared in the second half of this game. That’s important to say given how well they performed in the first 45 minutes of this game.
