Miles Robinson is showing why he’s one of America’s best soccer players. Why isn’t he valued as such?

If Miles Robinson is famous for one thing, it’s — well it’s for being an amazing MLS center back as exemplified by his MLS Best XI nomination in 2019 and subsequent promotion to the United States Men’s National Team in recent years culminating with impressive performances on important international stages as a starter.

But if there’s another thing he’s famous for, it’s for not talking shit. He’s as humble and steady and selfless as they come — quite the rarity for someone so athletically gifted and dominant between the lines. I wrote about about this quality a couple of years ago, which I hope can shed light on how he grew to have the unique demeanor he displays.
