With our current roster, and I"m throwing in Reyes, here's how I would play if I were coach. The subs are in ( ) ----------------Nkelko--------------------Johnson --------------(Kries)----------------------(1.Rhine/2.Thompson) ----------------------------Davis----------------------------- --------------------------(Nunez)----------------------------- Quill----------------------------------------------------------O'Brien (Glinton)-----------------------------------------------------(Rhine) ---------------------------Valakari-------------------------------- ---------------------------(pareja)------------------------------- ----------------------------Talley--------------------------------- ---------------------------(stone)--------------------------------- Jolley------------------------------------------------------Reyes (Gbandi)--------------------------------------------------(slayer) -----------------------------Gibbs------------------------------- ----------------------------(Goodson)-------------------------- -----------------------------Garlick--------------------------------- -----------------------------(Cassar)----------------------------- *If we dont sign Reyes Slayer moves up to start with Behncke behind him Emergency players: Behncke, Maurin My opinion was we'd move one defender up b/c we have three allstars back there so our midfield could hold the ball more leading to less pressure on the defense with Talley as more of a Stopper than defensive mid, what do you guys think?
I know it's a way to get our best 11 on the field, but I hope we resist the temptation to move either Gibbs or Jolley out of central defense. When you have two guys that good at that position, you need to take advantage of it and build around it. Look at what happened to Jeffries with "the switch."
