Since joining MLS, Andre Blake has made jaw-dropping saves week-after-week. Whether it’s denying D.C. United’s Alvaro Saborio to secure three points for the Union, or salvaging a point in Orlando by stopping a penalty kick from international superstar Kaka, Blake has been clutch for Philadelphia.
A note that shows how phenomenal the former No. 1 overall pick in the 214 MLS SuperDraft has been is the fact that he’s been nominated for MLS Save of the Week 12 times in his career. To put that in perspective, Blake has started 24 MLS matches. Despite the recognition, Blake feels he can improve his game.
