Mikael Uhre is finding his goal-scoring form. That sentence in itself should strike fear in every future Union opponent in the Eastern Conference. The former Danish Superliga Player of the Year has scored five goals in five games and has proved to the Philadelphia Union fanbase that he is indeed the missing attacking piece, a quality DP striker with the work rate to win the ball defensively, the pace to beat opponents off counters, and the skill and poise to find the back of the net.
Uhre’s two goals against the Houston Dynamo in last Saturday’s 6-0 win, his seventh and eighth of the season, tied him for second on the team and tied for seventh in the league.
