TORONTO CONTINUE HEAVY RELIANCE ON SEBASTIAN GIOVINCO

Sebastian Giovinco is arguably the greatest player in the history of the Major League Soccer going by his goals, titles and unmatched level of consistency over the years.

So much has been written and said about the very talented player who has been achieving so much as such top levels year in year out. Within the past month, Giovinco has scored seven goals in four games – getting two hat-tricks and a strike. Surprisingly, thesame player went eight games without scoring in May, June and July. His hiatus almost sent Toronto FC in trouble.

Despite the efforts of Greg Vanney in adding a few players to the squad this season, the team is still heavily reliant on Giovinco. The former Parma and Juventus striker is also set to be in action when the squad takes a trip to Texas to play Houston Dynamo. Toronto FC have won their last four encounters playing at BMO Field. After the Dynamo game, they play Philadelphia Union at PPL Park before a trip to Florida to face Orlando. All through the journey, the team would be depending still on the 29-year old Italian.

On the other hand, Diego Valeri, would be remaining at Portland after agreeing an extension with the club. Valeri is one of the top players over the last three years at Portland Timbers. The Argentinean provides a lot of entertainment that excites fans with his flicks, chips, passes and positioning. The entire frontline of the Timbers team revolves around the 30-year old player. Valeri would continue with the usual, knowing that he has years to go on at the club. He definitely ranks among the best players in the MLS history. His new deal would definitely upset Sounders fans, but he would surely contribute more to the league.
