On Thursday it was MLS assist leader Sacha Kljestan who declared that Golden Boot winner Bradley Wright-Phillips deserved to win the Landon Donovan MVP Award.
"But for me, personally, if I had to choose, I’d vote for Bradley Wright-Phillips," Kljestan said on Wednesday. "He led the league in scoring, he was hugely important for us in more ways than just getting goals. And the work he’s done every day, I think he’s the MVP."
However, on Friday the Red Bulls' all-time leading scorer insisted that his star teammate deserved the award instead of him.
