The Official Jackson Goncalves Appreciation Thread

Get forward and get down. Three goals, from defense, in as many games.

But who's minding the back door?

I could be wrong about this (as is the case with most things soccer-related) - but I'm pretty sure Jackson's been in the midfield during this run of form.

You are correct, sir.

I am almost ashamed to say he scared me at the beginning of 2011. His defensive instincts are suspect to say the least, but offensively he has turned into a beast! I like the way Schellas is using him and he must do too, as he is becoming one of our most valuable offensive assets!

Jackson has been nominated for MLS Goal of the Week.

Has anyone heard just how bad he's hurt? Shelles seems to think it isn't much.
