When you think of the biggest names from MLS past, some that come to mind include David Beckham, Thierry Henry, Kaka, Robbie Keane, Andrea Pirlo and Cuauhtemoc Blanco. Current names in MLS that draw attention are the likes of David Villa, Diego Valeri, Ignacio Piatti, Jozy Altidore, Bradley Wright-Phillips and Miguel Almiron.
What if I told you that Vako’s first 15 appearances in MLS were more productive than all those aforementioned names and then some?
With seven goals and four assists in less than 1,000 minutes to date, Vako’s points (g+a) per minute ratio is better than some of the highest paid and most well-known players in league history through their first 15 appearances.
