<p>Week number 5 of the Charlotte Metro area gave us the following list of players. Some played conference and others continued the tail end of their preseason. Regardless, this group has played at a level above the rest and deserves the recognition.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Jayden is an enthusiastic winger who can also play as an attacking midfielder. One of his most noticeable traits when his team is out of possession is how aggressive he is. He presses extremely hard in the opposing half, forcing the opponent to either rush or lose the ball. In possession, he is a crucial player in making his team play with fluidity. His passing keeps the ball moving in crucial areas, often ending in important opportunities. Out wide, he demonstrates how great his crossing is. From both in and outside the box, he also shows how great his shots are. These find the target more often than not, causing constant trouble for the keeper. He's also a natural-born leader, helping and encouraging his teammates whenever possible.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Blessings is an extremely talented winger who enthralls whoever has the pleasure of watching him. Unbelievably agile, once he starts dribbling, he is near impossible to stop. Typically, wingers like this tend to pull this off outside the box. He is very well capable of doing so, but he adds the extra perk of doing so inside the box. His dribbling style is clearly inspired by players such as Mbappe, and he adds the skills necessary to make people get off their seats. His passing is just as great, always looking to centralize plays when he does. In the box, he pulls off magnificent shots that will look even better when he polishes his finishing just a bit more. The type of flair you see in him is not normal, and his ceiling is certainly very high.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Nathan is a fantastic striker who helps his team in more than just scoring goals. Of course, the most important aspect in a striker's game is their finishing, and his is great. If he gets the ball in the box, he won't think twice about shooting. This, combined with his effectiveness, makes him a great chance finisher. His movement helps him to get into great positions, always finding or creating spaces for himself. Another way he creates space is through association. He'll drop just enough to keep the ball moving and drag defenders away from where he wants to eventually be. His hold-up play is just as good, allowing his team to move forward as he shields the ball.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Piercon is a very talented right winger who can play as an attacking midfielder. He's a simple yet effective player who is agile enough to drop defenders. His moves may not be as flashy as some other players, but that does not mean he's not as effective. The spaces he leaves himself in allow him to devastate the opposition. His vision is superb, finding passes where most players don't see them. He finds runners easily and can make his teammates become runners with how he reads the game. Undoubtedly, this makes him a progressive player, constantly looking to keep the play going. His long shots are also unreal, finding the net from places where others wouldn't think to shoot.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Henry is a fantastic right midfielder who can play as a right winger or attacking midfielder and appeared <a href="https://prepsoccer.com/2024/12/best-players-of-the-top-ranked-teams-myers-park-high-school/">before</a> last season. This season, he has more offensive duties than before. Given his offensive talents, this was bound to make him more effective in the final third. With fantastic returns so far this season, he has easily become one of the best players in the state.</p>
