Edmonton - August 13, 2012 - Having only played 540 minutes with FC Edmonton so far this season - Bryan Arguez has certainly wasted no time making a difference in the Eddies midfield and has had a large enough impact to earn himself a Defensive Player of the Week honour from the league.

Arguez came to the Eddies on loan a month ago from the Montreal Impact. Making his debut with FCE against the Tampa Bay Rowdies on July 15, his defensive holding midfield mindset and confidence on the ball immediately added a strong defensive and offensive presence in the middle of the pitch.

Since July 15, the team has only allowed five goals - and with only 22 goals against this season, FC Edmonton sits with the fourth best defensive record in the league.

“It’s a nice compliment,” said the Miami-native after hearing the news. “I’m still getting comfortable with my new team but it’s always nice to get an individual honour.”

With only six games under his belt as an Eddie, Arguez notably played his best Sunday afternoon against the Puerto Rico Islanders, where it was his interception in midfield and pass out to Kenny Caceros that lead to Shaun Saiko’s match winning goal.

This is Arguez’s first Player of the Week award and the Eddies’ fifth league honour of the season (Saiko-Week 4, 8, Hamilton-Week 5, Parker-Week 9).
