Good afternoon,
Does anybody have TopDrawerSoccer Premium? Looking for an article on Nicki Dallin (Arsenal FC ECNL) posted recently. Maybe you could posted here ??
Thx, have a great day.
 
Here's the article - only copying the section where I saw her name last on the U18/19 mentions. Just to add, Mollie Griswold of AZ Aresenal is a great player and really is what makes that team good. Gotta give her props. She is/was a discovery player (last season, don't know where she was rostered) and landed at AZ. That team made some changes after all the club/team shuffling with DA and the ECNL AZ team shifts. She'll be a good player for NC.

I didn't see any goalkeepers or defenders listed. Is that a separate category?

Defenders and goalkeepers rarely get any recognition in these "standout" articles because it would require actually watching the game to determine who made an impact.

Midway through my son's college career, he switched from left mid to left defender. His first year as a defender, as a Junior, he was cited for Conference Offensive Player of the Week in two consecutive weeks. I jokingly asked his coach to put him up front to see if he could win Defensive Player of the Week (which were usually goalkeepers).

One way to determine the GKs impact..which would require a bit more work..but one could see that if certain teams are running over most teams in their division/bracket/etc but there’s that team that isn’t scoring much but isn’t giving up many goals either. There’s the GK making an impact I’d say. Just my .02 as a GK parent.

If they score a goal, bam! Recognition. Goals are the only way to calculate soccer superiority in the US. Why do you think USSF wants to convert all forwards to defenders. Good defenders are over looked and get no love in their younger years. But everyone sure loves them when they save their ass. Sad that it never gets mentioned. But as others have said, that would require actually watching the game. For defenders and keepers, they should stay away from these goal counting weekly stat articles.

When I was older and started playing Sunday 8AM pickup games (white t-shirts vs colored, no referees) I would play left defender because no one else wanted to. Most of the time the player playing against me was a right-footed forward who used to be good, but had slowed down. All I had to do was get in his way.

Being in the way is one of the most important parts of being a defender.
 
It’s really too bad the that the backline doesn’t get more recognition. They are rarely subbed off and can usually do a decent job at other positions, but if you move a player back from mid or forward, they usually get eaten up.
