    Ok----After watching the Game against DC and NY/NJ, it is apparent, that without an attacking midfield we are in trouble and are leaving our forwards no opportunities to attack..Here's my linup for nexxt game--


    ------Carrieri------ZiZi---------------

    ----------Spencer-------------------

    Chung---------Pablo--------Henderson/Crawford

    Rizo-----Fraser-----Stewart------Hast

    ------------GK(of your choice)--------------

    Reasons:

    Spencer--Is tough, can hold the ball, can distribute
    is quick, and can shoot from the
    mid-field

    Zizi-Carrieri--ZiZi give you a target player in the
    box and a Carrieri gives you a quick
    attacking through ball player

    Chung---Better at attacking from the left side

    Henderson/Crawford--Either one of these players
    can attack from the this
    position..Crawford is not a
    True back Defender

    Rizo---Natural position is Defense


    Stewart/Fraser/Hart--have been pretty solid

    GK---Neither have been that impressive.


    We need to stick to this line-up for the next 5-6 games and get some cosistency in the attack...


    My 2 cents wort !!!!!!!!!!!

    "We are looking for another player and a key part of that player is someone who can take charge of the ball. This player will certainly be a midfielder."
    ______________________________________________________________________________________

    Hankinson should go back to some of his previous quotes. Awhile ago he was stating that he didn 't want another pibe. "Everyone would take charge of the midfield.That everyone would weave in and out.". If he wants one person as attacking midfield then he should state the midfielders roles. He has players on this team who have played attacking mid. He does not discuss tactics, game situations etc. with his players. The only thing wrong with this team is the coach. Instead of coaching he thinks he will "discover" the utimate player who will turn things around. He has all the talent right now on this team who can take charge of the ball. He just hasn't communicated anything that he wants. He just looks to blame.
