Jata has proven to his opponents that he is capable of scoring at will, but he has also shown the ability to create opportunities as well. If Jata continues to wreak havoc on opposing teams, he will be a great addition to any MLS team in need of an attack. With 12 game-winning goals in just three seasons at Campbell, it is obvious that Jata is comfortable with the ball at his feet when it matters most. He screams confidence, but his humility is stronger, giving thanks to the Lord, not only before and after the game, but during the game as well.
