Anyone else impressed by Backe's formation discussion in this article?

Read what he says about not just having a single holding mid because of the pressure it puts on the back line, and how "long" your team gets....this is a problem we've had from the beginning.

I think he might be thinking that the quality of the Centre Backs in the MLS might be of low quality and to compensate for the lack of consistency he's going to play a defensive formation to reassure the backline. On the counter attack, he's going to need fast Attacking Midfielders & Forwards.

At least this guy has a strategy, I can't say I've ever trusted anyone that doesn't want to share the details of the plan of attack. I know everyone here knows people like that or you know you are that type of person!:dita:

All indications out of camp suggest the team will be even worse this year. The roster is paper-thin and the departures of Adrian Serioux, Amado Guevara, and, most recently, Carl Robinson hasn't been matched by quality coming the other way.
New head coach Preki admits it's going to take time to make this team a winner. How disheartening is that? Three years in with this franchise and it's still going to take more time? That's how poorly this team has been constructed.

:facepalm:
