Andre Blake - Falls to Earth in 3-3 drawBlake made three saves and conceded three goals during the 3-3 draw against Chicago on Saturday.
ImpactBlake has been phenomenal so far this season, however, he faltered in a major way in the draw. The keeper is currently averaging as many clean sheets (2) as goals against (2). Although, Blake dropped form thanks to a combination of bad positioning and a dash of bad luck. His defense gave up an own-goal in the opening minutes and he was not active enough off his line the rest of the match. Nevertheless, Blake is still one of the best keepers in the league and it is only a matter of time until he rebounds.

Jamiro Monteiro - Gets stuffed in final minuteMonteiro produced three shots (two on target), sent four crosses (none accurate), took three corners and made one tackle (one won) in the 3-3 draw with Chicago on Saturday.
ImpactMonteiro was his typical self producing in all facets at every angle of the pitch. The midfielder continues to be a dynamic maestro for the Union and everything runs through him. The best part of his performances are the value from crosses that are not corners. Monteiro also came inches away from adding to his already growing point totals before the opposing keeper barely made a save to keep the game at a draw. So far this season Monteiro has two goals and four assists over his 11 appearances. During that period he is averaging 1.45 shots, 2.18 created chances, 5.45 crosses, 3.0 corners and 2.9 tackles per 90 minutes in all competitions. Monteiro is not only one of the more successful midfielders in the league, but also one of the most consistent midfielders.

Cory Burke - Strikes goal once again in drawBurke scored once, took one shot (one on target), created one chance, sent three crosses (none accurate) and made two tackles (two won) in the 3-3 draw with Chicago on Saturday.
ImpactBurke has been in spectacular form and he continued that in the draw. The forward now has four goals and one assist over his past eight appearances (five starts). He also has taken 15 shots, created two chances, sent 13 crosses and made seven tackles in that time frame. The fact that Burke has been able to do this without starting every match speaks volume and the form that he is riding. Furthermore, he is also adding peripherals onto his point totals. Until his hot boot cools off, he is full steam ahead.

ImpactSullivan received his first start of his career in his fifth appearance during the draw Saturday. The midfielder performed well given he did not play the entire match. He also began his highlight reel with what will be a contender for Goal of the Season. It is unknown what exactly Sullivan's role will be moving forward, but anytime he does start he will be worth the consideration.
