    Nice thought, but that won't happen. So to take what you started:

    -----mywanga-----------------------------------Hardbottle
    ---------------------------Rivero-----------------------------
    --------------------------Powers/Hill------------------------
    -----Thomas-------------------------------------Pablo------

    --Mullan---------Calderon----------Moor--------Wynne--
    ---------------------------Pickens-----------------------------

    Wait, what happened to Harris, the guy you said was going to light it up this year and be a star? Now he doesn't even start for you?

    Anyone lighting it up and becoming a star would be good enough for me.

    If they have so much trouble switching from a 4-4-2 to a 4-5-1 or a 4-3-3, I think their difficulty adapting to a 3-back set is going to outweigh any advantages the formation might offer.

    3 back wont be that hard to adjust too. could hide it in a 4 back.

    harris is coming off an acl injury but mwanga and brown got more promise at this point in my eyes. wouldn't be suprised to see harris be our savior.

    Based on trade value, how would you order the Rapids roster.

    When you ask a question like that all I can think is, "that should be it's own thread" Hence I created one here

    A question to those with "inside" information... Any news on Eloundou? (sorry if my spelling is off I was to lazy to look it up.)
