I think Donovan has more than just pace. From what I can tell, he seems to have good technique and can use both feet. He can finish, and can run all day when motivated. But he definitely stunted his development by crying his way out of Europe twice, although it was probably for the best gven his mental state. last chance for him. If he is a quick learner, he will do well cuz he has the tools to put in a useful shift at a decent UEFA Cup level team. I doh think plenty of them ballers who doing well in Europe all that special (relative to a player like Landon that is). he needs to fall into a team that plays to his strengths and have a coaching staff that believes in him. I guessing that is 90% of the recipe for success right there
Which team going and build around... or focus their offense on Donovan at this point? He going Europe for going Europe sake... to play with some low-level team? We'll see what the market says... but call me a skeptic at this point.
As usual youre talking a whole lot of shit. Donovan just has pace? Are you that daft or do you simply not pay attention when watching football? Donovan's pace compliments his vision, anticipation, passing, finishing, touch, acceleration, and his overall intelligence on the pitch. He is easily America's best ever outfield player and can well succeed in a top European league.
