It's great news, obviously ....

I hope Donnet heads to the bench...

And I wonder if Jaime shouldn't become a 30-minute player, especially since Esky probably isn't ready for 90

We sure could use that player now. Seriously though, I agree with Donnet to the bench. He really hasn't added much of anything to this team in my opinion.

My line-up:

-------------Perkins---------------
---Namoff----Boswell----Erpen----
Olsen---Simms-----Carroll------Gros
--------------Gomez--------------
------Adu------------Moreno/Esky-----

I think these are our 11 best players. Simms and Carroll pair up well together, and Olsen will track back better than Donnet has. I know Adu is a midfielder, but we are really thin up top right now, and we need him on the field in a position where he can help on offense but not hurt on defense. If Esky can keep his head on straight, I would start him and bring Jaime in after the defense has been softened up a bit.

Oh, and Nick comes in for Troy if we have a shootout.

I agree, Donnet unfortunately still isn't ready, and we need to clog up the middle better especially against NY. Let Freddy, Gomez, Jaime, and Gros attack will Simms/Carroll/Olsen do all teh dirty work in the midfield.

2-0 to the good guys, Freddy and Jaime provide the goals.

My guess is that whoever is in charge of updating the schedule does so when they actually get to the office tomorrow.

So apparently Riz changed the name in the title from TFKA MetroStars to AFKA MetroStars.

Should I assume the "A" stands for assholes?

The good news is that everytime we play NY in the first round we have won the cup.

The slide stops here. Lineup

----------------------Perkins----------------------
----Namoff-----------Boswell-----------Erpen------
----------------------Olsen------------------------
------Gros------------Gomez-------------Caroll/Donnet----
------------------------Adu------------------------
--------Moreno----------------------Esky----------
I believe that moving Olsen to a more defensive postion could provide support for the defense that, in my opinion, is badly needed . I have a feeling that Esky will be able to start this game. In the Chicago game Adu showed potential as an attacking midfielder, and moving Gomez to central midfield could help get some leadership in the midfield.

Gomez and Esky with the goals 2-0.

Just wondering where people are planning on getting seats for this game? Me and a few friends from college up in northeast PA are gonna make the trip to cheer on United and want to sit with all the rest of the United fans.

My lineup, based on what little I know about the team:

Perkins
Namoff Boswell Prideaux
Caroll Olsen
Donnet Gomez Gros/DeRoux
Dyachenko Adu

I feel that would be the most solid team we could field, the aim being to have players who will work hard to get the ball back when we lose it. The back three have been having a hard time lately and we can't afford to give up two or three goals in a playoff game.
I would count on Olsen, Gomez and Dyachenko to be creative and, depending on how events unfold, Jaime, Esky and Facundo could contribute their skills.
