I think we still see the 4-2-3-1 from the start, and the 4-4-2 as an occasional mix up.

the midfield/fwd combo will look the same as last year with exception of Veron who sounds like he finally could be pushing Grella to the bench.

 

The key to the line up is Felipe, as long as he's cemented in the center there's not that much else Jessie could do tactically different. Now if Felipe sits, then you can move klejstan back and toy with the Fwd/attacking mid combos. We prob won't see that though


5 year plan

Grella was the face of our jersey announcement -- he'll be in the starting 11.

Agree with this shape. We'll be sticking to the 4-2-3-1 as our base. With Zubar's health still a question I think we will see Ouimette at the start. The on;y other question regarding personnel is right back and I thin we'll go with Zizzo/Lade rather than Duvall as he's still coming back after a long layoff.

That's the plan B line up. It will be 4231 to start. I agree with the players save Ouimette i/o Zubar since he will be hurt

A lot of high press teams are playing the 4-2-2-2. Wouldn't be surprised if we went in that direction. It's a narrow formation, but it's not like we are overly reliant on crosses to score.

Maybe. Maybe not.

Robles; Lawrence, Baah, Ouimette, Zizzo; McCarty, Felipe; Veron, Kljestan, Sam; B. Wright-Phillips

 

4-2-3-1

 

I don't trust Zubar to be healthy opening day. And I still think the 4-2-3-1 is going to be our main formation, but I wouldn't be surprised to see them slide into a 4-2-2-2 during games depending on situation.

Duvall still injured, no?

Nyet, Tovarisch.

 

In the pre-season match against MTL, 5-0 W, he played in the 1st 45 mins. Didn't look bad, looked like his normal self.
