I'd throw Asotasi into that listmattyg said:He along with Mason are probably the only 2 forwards i'd pay $400,000 for in the comp. Hindy being close behind.

Thierry Henry said:Honestly, all the stuff about his defence, dropped ball etc is exaggerated. I think his missed tackle count would be pretty normal and I think he is at the very least an ok defender with the potential to be a very good one. His error rate is probably slightly higher than average, while his offload rate is substantially higher than average. Overall, I would say he makes more effective offloads than ineffective ones and hence they are, overall, a major benefit to his team.
The reason he offloads so much is because of his ability to get his hands free in tackles, and also because of the way he can carry the ball so easily in one hand and offload in difficult situations. Not many players can do that...infact I think he's the only one in the comp....

Without Mason he is nothing. He is simply not good enough to lead the team and do it on his own. Mason can and that's the difference.
