Apologies for taking this a bit off topic again, but I think Boyd has become a kind of mythical figure not entirely connected to his actual achievements and performances. I always rated him as a talented young player and I think that it's unfortunate that we haven't seen more of him, regardless of the reason, because he did a good job in team with some major issues last season. However, his Phoenix record isn't great in terms of goals and assists for someone who spent a lot of time as a striker. I've also never really seen him stand out for the AWs either. He scored a bucket load of goals in the ASBP and saved our arses with a great performance once this season, but is that enough to explain the amount of hype some people give him on here? You'd think we were keeping Messi out of the squad the way some people have reacted at various times this season.
You know who else scored a bucket load of goals in the ASBP, and over a longer period? Roy Krishna.
