    Well, in a perfect world, yes... but we're talking about the bizarro world of OZ and the Metrostars, so just about anything is fair game. ;)

    In any event, I hope he gets some time at right or left back on Thursday (national broadcast on ESPN2). Matching up against head to head against either Convey or Villegas for 90' would be a nice test of his speed and positioning (particularly since Convey is so mobile and good at finding seams in the defense). Matching up against Olsen would also be interesting to watch, although it probably wouldn't tell us as much about Akwari's speed (since the new "bionic Olsen" seems a step slower --although a whole lot wiser -- than "classic Olsen").
