The Atlanta Beat had zero, zilch, nada need to draft Arrington. Why would they have possibly wanted her when they had Dominguez? She's going to be this year's Pichon, I fear. They are frightfully, scary good . And Withers is a month away from joining them. Prediction: they will host a semifinal; it's only a matter of the opponent. *shudder*... Paul
Not only that, but they also got a great player in the 2nd round with the pick of crumpton. 2 games 2 goals from the the girl from Michigan.
While I agree that Hotlanta is smoking right now, look at who they have played. NY & Boston were the worst defensive teams in the league last year. Lets see howw they match up against Washington, Carolina, or us. Domingez looks like the real deal though.... KSP
Atlanta has had a huge edge over New York and and Boston, the weather...being poor in the northeast and decent down south.. still I had picked Atlanta to place first, so they've done nothing to disprove me.. Paul you're referring to me about arrington... dominguez required the use of an international allocation, while arrington could have been acquired via the draft... and my belief is arrington is as good a player as dominguez 21 matches will prove it The key is to attack weaknesses and exploit them. To defend Atlanta you need to control midfield and deny service forward... simple as that...shut down midfield and dominate possession against them... let's see what atlanta does with BOTh pichon and arrington running at them ... be a very interesting battle of completely diverse styles...
