Players Competing for Spots
:soundersfc.com
We’re just going to do a quick rundown of who is in camp, who is “In”, who is fighting for one of the 20 Senior Roster spots and 4 Developmental spots.
Forwards
- Kevin Forrest
- Nate Jaqua
- Fredy Montero
- Jarrod Smith
- Steve Zakuani
Solid (2): Jaqua, Montero, and Zakuani are in. Zakuani’s contract would keep him on the Developmental Roster.
Midfielders
- Ely Allen
- Osvaldo Alonso
- Brad Evans
- Stephen King
- Roger Levesque
- Sebastien LeToux
- Freddie Ljungberg
- Sanna Nyassi
- Tom Taiwo
- Mike Randolph
- Peter Vagenas
Solid (6): Alonso, Evans, King, Ljungberg, LeToux, Nyassi
Defenders
- Evan Brown
- Taylor Graham
- Jhon Kennedy Hurtado
- Patrick Ianni
- Tyrone Marshall
- James Riley
- Zach Scott
- Nathan Sturgis
- Tyson Wahl
Solid (8): Brown, Graham, Hurtado, Ianni, Marshall, Riley, Sturgis, Wahl
Goalkeeper
- Chris Eylander
- Kasey Keller
Solid (2)
Going through the list was actually easier than I originally thought. This gives us 18 Senior players and 1 Developmental player. TWO free senior spots are open.
Are Expnasion Draft picks Jarrod Smith & Peter Vagenas assured of a roster spot when they are healthy? Roger Levesque wore the captain’s armband a few times down in Argentina so one could think that he is a step up on everyone else. How about the former Huskies from Montlake; Ely Allen and Kevin Forrest- will their local ties and previous MLS experience help them? And the new kid Tom Taiwo who showed up yesterday- will his experience from the Chelsea youth program help him land a spot?
What do you think?
