Elf and ivo - the guys just had his best game ever for metro... just be happy. The team won 4-0 and he assisted on every goal.
I have very recently really doubted Vanziers pace and stamina, but he looked great out there on Saturday. That is him "turning it around".
Poking holes in his performance is really negative. The guy had an amazing game. He could have added a goal to his 4 assists, sure. But a Vanzier that is playing like he did on Saturday is a DP. Add those two goals, and consistently over the season, and you are talking MLS MVP over Messi. Thats not a reasonable requirement for me.
I'm happy with the win and agree that Vanzeir's overall performance was very good. I have given credit about the things he did well in this game - movement, assists, decision-making - in every single post I made about the game, and yes, that was an amazing game in terms of the scoreline, team performance and even Vanzeir's performance. Pointing out that he missed the target on his two shots is not negative, just reality.
I will hold off judgement on whether he's fully "turned it around" until it happens on a consistent basis and not claim 'mission accomplished' after a one-off 4-assist performance that will likely not be repeated ever again. He can easily shut naysayers up by scoring a few goals, or maybe putting the ball on target to start.
