let's talk about these balandor nominations where is Naomi GMA the lack of Naomi GMA to me especially just thinking about her past year I mean there is a pretty decent nwsl contingent though which is new and fun we have Barbara Banda Trinity Rodman M Swanson tarian Alyssa ner seems like a pretty solid list it's nice to see some some fresh names on there I do think it's also pretty interesting that Alysa a makes the cut right as much as like Defenders don't get enough Awards goal scoring I do think tends to dominate these lists for the most part but Alys and are making that list especially based on her us performance I I do feel like is a valid pick 100%
