The converted from the midfield, Farfan is still learning the nuances of positioning as a left back. He’s simply too talented, too committed, and has too much potential to not have a place in the starting XI.
Season Reviews
Season Review: Amobi Okugo
Taking a young player who is still coming into his own and shifting him to a new position could be recipe for disaster. Not for Amobi Okugo.
Season Review: Sheanon Williams
The Sheanonmenon’s 2012 season was a rocky one and included a foray at center back and a lingering toe injury. With rookie Raymon Gaddis impressing in his first season, could we see a competition at right back in 2013?
Season review: Keon Daniel
Keon Daniel had a strangely quiet 2012 season after he strangely disappeared from the U.S. due to “visa issues” in late 2011. PSP explores his situation in this season review, including asking whether Daniel was abducted by aliens and replaced by a copy. (Yes, really.)
Season review: Antoine Hoppenot
Fast, elusive, and feisty, Antoine Hoppenot spent 2012 bustling his way into the hearts of Philadelphians everywhere. Expect nothing less in 2013.
Season Review: Carlos Valdes
While he may not have expected to captain the Union in 2012, Carlos Valdes led his young team from the front, proving his quality at every turn.
