Which is what I figured the trade was made for. Not d-mid for d-mid, but defender for d-mid. At the very least, he's a more than adequate backup in case Clark gets hurt.

The place Houston seems the weakest (right now, based on injuries) is wing and central defender. They have several guys who play pretty well as outside backs (Gray, Barrett, Aloisi, Waibel, and Goldthwaite is now getting some time). But at inside defender, they have only Robinson (injured), Waibel (this is the first year I believe he's played in the middle), and Cochrane. Gray played central defense in a couple of games last year when there were injuries or redcard suspensions, but he doesn't seem to have the aggressiveness on the ball that a good central defender should have.

Marcus Storey will provide depth on the right wing and as
he develops, on the left as well.
