MLS Moments Player Pick
Start Date: Friday, 24 February
Expiry Date: Friday, 3 March
Objective Requirements

Who to Pick?
Let's face it, neither of these players will be getting into your competitive squad!
However, they can still be a great addition to your MLS squad for future objectives.
Who you pick at the end of completing these objectives may come down to what previous SBCs you have completed, as you may already have a strong forward line with End of an Era Gonzalo Higuain, End of an Era Gareth Bale and Player Moments Carlos Vela!
Mukhtar won't improve that, so Thiago Martins would be the option to go for.
If you're wondering who has the better stats, then it's very close, with both able to gain the stats of a 92-rated player depending on what chemistry style you add to them.
We would opt for Thiago Martins, then stick a Shadow on him, however, picking Mukhtar and applying a Deadeye or Marksman would make him a handy CAM too.
