There have been several instances where I’ve been asked about Ruan, and people have expressed aggravation in regards to his play. As such, I thought I’d take a moment to address the issue prior to the upcoming match against the Chicago Fire this weekend.
There are those who get frustrated with Ruan for his crossing, and I am one of those people. Some poor defending and an ill-advised header that led to two of LAFC’s goals on Saturday have combined to draw the ire of Orlando City fans recently.
The reality is that there are good and not-so-good aspects to the Brazilian’s game.
