Armando Cooper can be an incredibly frustrating player to watch. The Toronto FC midfielder has a talent for drifting through opposing defenders with ease. Only, he always seems to try one trick too many.
The numbers would seem to back this up, no Toronto FC player had more dribbles per match in 2017 than Cooper’s 1.4. However, the Panamanian international was also among the club’s most commonly dispossessed players according to WhoScored.
As a result, Cooper has become one of the most-maligned players on Toronto FC’s roster. He has taken a big plunge in our rankings, falling from number six last season all the way to 17 out of 20 this year.
