RR is my darkhorse candidate to make the 2018 roster. The games I've seen him play at LB for the Galaxy he has been very good. He's left footed, fast, and has good stamina. Plus, he's actually a pretty intelligent player and his crossing/delivery is on point. He never had the touch to be a true LW, but his ceiling has always been higher at LB and I'm surprised it's taken this long for him to be played there. I guess it goes to show you that Bruce Arena is a pretty competent coach, after all.

Agreed with all that from what I have seen as well. His partnership with LD when he is out left has been pretty good.

I hear he has great ball-handling skills, on and off the pitch.

When I saw Robbie play against the Crew this season, he was the enforcer for the Galaxy. He played RB and committed multiple hard fouls and got booked. Pretty funny to see.

Garza is a strong player too.

I hope RR continues playing well there, the more depth the better.

He deserves a call up. Not ready to anoint him our LB of the future just yet. Would love to see Chandler get his shite together.

Between being dark and gay, I don't even think they'd let him in the country

He has made tremendous strides over the past year and in particular the past 4 months or so.

Sometimes you need a position change.

Bedoya couldn't hack it in an even shittier SPL. Also, Brad Davis.

Bedoya was injured for most of his time in the SPL and that league was a bad fit. He's doing very well in Ligue 1.

Even before the injury problems with Rangers, he wasn't a regular. He was also one of the lowest rated players in Ligue 1 last season.

maybe seeing the ball infront of him at all times now helps

the LA games ive seen this year he hasn't looked bad, but he isn't WC level defending.
