Video Spotlight: Brian McBride

When thinking of the best American players in the past ten years, Brian McBride should be on almost everyone's list. For a national team which hasn't had the most prolific scorers, McBride was a mainstay for USA and his club teams in MLS and the Premier League. Here is a video tribute I found that shows some of his goal highlights and the injuries he has sustained over the years. Needless to say, he is one of the best soccer players in the air. I would not want to go up for a header with this guy.

P.S. He needs to recover from his knee injury as soon as possible as Fulham is in desperate need of his services in their battle to avoid relegation.

McBride is the man. Watching that clip I forgot how good he was. Fulham really could use a few of those goals..
