United lineup? These players are, naturally, selected based on second place (or fourth and fifth place votes) in the previous polls. For many people, their second place selection at a position may not be the second in the poll, and this poll will satisfy your desires on this question. Vote for as many as you wish, or vote for "none of the above", which means you think the second team as present is pretty good and doesn't need changed. If there are a significant number of votes at a position, we can have a little revote to select the second team. Second team; Goalkeeper - Mark Simpson Left Back - Bryan Namoff Right Back - Diego Sonora (Bryan Namoff actually held #2 here, but I opted for Sonora as a better third place vote than either Mario Gori or Ben Iroha at left back). Center Backs - Carlos Llamosa & Bobby Boswell Defensive Midfielder - Brian Carroll Left Midfielder - Bobby Convey Right Midfielder - Earnie Stewart (Tony Sanneh was #2, but already starts at right back) Attacking Midfielder - Christian Gomez Forward - Raul Diaz Arce & Alecko Eskandarian Coach - Peter Novak
When were the polls for attacking mid, forwards and coach started, over Christmas week? I was on vacation so I missed them.
18th, 22nd, and 1st respectively The coaches thread is such a blow-away, I just jumped ahead to the second team thread. The unfortunate thing about a series of offseason threads is the holidays. I am trying to get everything in before the draft, which is just a few weeks off, ah?
