lol, at your Cyle Larin remarks! Tabla's 2 goals in 8 appearances is nothing, Cyle had 37 goals in 68 appearances, to do that consistantly over 2 years is phenomenal, he plays next to Kaka (former FIFA player of the year) and nets way more goals than him. He's also scored at the international level. Cyle Larin was the Rookie of the year last year and likely to be one of the league's top scorers again, many of the world's top teams are scouting him and he'll likely be in Europe before long...Tabla is not in the same stratosphere as Larin! Your lack of footy knowledge (as has been proven in the past) is showing itself again

You clearly have never seen Tabla play. The kid is better 1 on 1 than Piatti, that's how big his potential is.
Listen to Biello's half time speech. He clearly puts Ballou Tabla in the same category than Piatti (players you can base an entire gameplan on).

I said he is going to be better than Larin in 2-3 years, I am not talking about the present.
But because you want to... here are the MLS goal totals of those respective players at age 18:
Larin: 0
Edwards: 0
Tabla: 2 (just turned 18 so he has a full year to add to the total)
I don't even know why you put Edwards in there who is a similar caliber player to Anthony Jackson-Hamel.
If you were that much more knowledgable than me, you would know not to use the top of table team argument when you guys have Altidore, Giovinco and Bradley.
