First of all, I like to point out that I haven't been able to watch any TFC games with Chris Cummings in charge to make a good observation on how well the players are playing in a 4-3-3. I know that he has had very good results with the 4-3-3, but considering the current roster the 4-3-3 just doesn't do justice to the players and their strengths.
I seems to me like TFC still lacks a centre back, central midfielder or left winger, and of course another striker. The only person on the roser I consider a winger is Ricketts.
This my best formation for the team based on the actual players on roster:
4-3-1-2:
------------------------------GK--------------------------------
-----------------------------Frei--------------------------------
----------------------------Sutton------------------------------
---------------------------Edwards------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------
---RB--------------CB------------------CB-----------------LB----
Wynne-----------Velez---------------Serioux-------------Brennan
Attakora---------Harmse------------Sanyang--------------Gala---
-------------------------------------Gomez----------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------
------------CM--------------DM--------------CM-----------------
----------DeRosario--------Robinson--------Guevara--------------
-----------Ricketts*--------Cronin----------Ricketts*-------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------AMC---------------------------------
----------------------------Vitti---------------------------------
---------------------------Barrett--------------------------------
--------------------------Ricketts*------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------ST---------------------ST----------------------
----------------Dichio-----------------Barrett--------------------
---------------Ibrahim----------------J.Smith---------------------
---------------------------------------White---------------------
I know I'm using De Rosario and Guevara in a less of attacking roles, but cosidering the rest of the midfielders available don't have the work ethic to chase down the ball, I consider De Rosario and Guevara, pretty damn good options in midfield beside Robinson.

The reason for this thread is to point out the strength in the current roster. What I would like to see from anyone posting in this thread is: (1) Your best formation; as well as how current players fit in that formation.
(2) Your best fantasy TFC team.
Please keep it in the format like the one above and try to give a good thought into it.
Note:
If you have a formation in mind in which current players do not fit the formation, please elaborate with players from around the league which would make the formation complete. Please make it realistic options as possible.
Remember:
* MLS Rules:
- 24 players max. ( 20 senior roster players+ 4 developmental players)
- 16 international spots; 11 non-american spots + 5 american spots
