The stats don’t lie: Alejandro Bedoya is cementing himself as one of the top midfielders in MLS this season.
Bedoya’s pass completion rate entering this weekend stands at 90.5 percent, the third-best mark out of 366 eligible players across MLS. It’s the best in the Eastern Conference, and up significantly from his mediocre 84.0 percent rate of a season ago. And he’s doing it despite high volume and responsibility (he’s in the top 10 percent of MLS in passes attempted).
Bedoya doesn’t lie, either: He knows he’s in excellent form.
“I’ve done my role pretty well this year, I’m happy with it, and I think I’ve been one of the most consistent guys on the field every game,” the Union captain said Wednesday.
