What do we do about Héber?

A lot has changed in the Bronx since the Brazilian forward known simply as Héber first joined New York City FC. One of the major signings to a post-David Villa roster, Héber was a sorely-needed addition to a team that was struggling to score goals on a consistent basis. Signed in late March of the 2019 season to replace the underwhelming Jo Inge Berget, Héber paced NYCFC for the rest of the season with 15 goals and three assists as the No. 9, and soon became a fan favorite among the supporters.
