Player to Watch: Guilherme

Guilherme - Major League Soccer

Guilherme has been a catalyst for a surprisingly good Houston Dynamo side that currently sits at the top of the Western Conference and 3rd in the Supporters Shield standings. With 12 goals and 5 assists in MLS play, he's been the consistent producer on a side that lacks a ton of goal-scoring ability. The Brazilian, a player that Houston coach Ben Olsen has called one of the best in the league, is among the league leaders in goal contribution % - he's been in on 17 of their 29 goals so far this year, so limiting his opportunities will go a long way for CITY's defense in trying to contain the Dynamo attack.

Do they have any St. Louis-area players?

None
