Grant catches up with Robbie Keane, whose phenomenal 20-year senior playing career included three MLS Cup titles with the LA Galaxy; the 2014 MLS MVP award; club tenures at Tottenham, Liverpool, Inter, Coventry City, West Ham, Aston Villa, Celtic and others; and a record 68 international goals in 146 appearances for the Republic of Ireland.
I wanted to ask a somewhat related question. Sebastian Lletget plays for the Galaxy, so it’s related. Don’t you find the Lletget ridicule online really odd? Lletget is a very skillful American player, and it makes no sense how he became the scapegoat. Ridiculing any pro athlete isn’t ok, but Lletget is a way above average American player. I’ve been waging this war solo on Twitter and on YouTube for months.
It's hard to escape that it's because Lletget plays in MLS and still contributes to the national team. He wasn't great against Canada, but he was terrific in Honduras. My guess is Jordan Morris will hear the same thing when he's back.
