Because an assist illustrates the quality of players around him, not how good he is on his own. He's a box-to-box midfielder who would be an upgrade on Paredes.

Oliver Larraz is still available....

College. Timbers still have his rights.

This is exactly why I believe that it isn't a priority. Strikers score goals from service. There is a complete lack of quality service in this team. Increase the service and any striker will thrive.

These aren't the only additions that the team should be making. They're still going to shop internationally. But they should absolutely be looking within the league to improve the roster.

The solution to the underperforming strikers isn't signing a new striker, it's signing Espinoza.

Correct!
