    I can’t because I don’t know the players well enough and I’m not sure they fit that mold. The CBs might though, even if the rest don’t.

    Stanislav and Frankowski outside? With these two on the wings we’d be more like a 3-4-2-1 and playing to our counter attacking strengths. If we want more flow like that beautiful build up to the Beric goal, put two holding mids in front if the three CBs and ask the wings to play higher.

    Just spitballing here. I think we have enough midfielders and wide speed to clog the midfield and not compromise our leaky defense.

    Heck I'd rather have Sekulic then Aliseda at this point but I do like the lineup.

    in theory, i dig jiggly's lineup, but it does feel like the outside lanes would be open highways for opposing wingers

    In Bradley's original concept, the wingers were Jesse Marsch and Diego Gutierrez. They weren't exactly attack-minded players, much more suited to tracking back anyway. With this idea, Aliseda and Frankie are not the sort of players we'd want tracking back.
