There has to be a change in formation now. Regardless, if Koevermans returns most teams have gotten better and experienced defenders in the offseason to defend versus the improved group of Strikers in MLS. Koevermans and Johnson can't be expected to sit in between to centre backs and score goals. First, of all you have to get better wingers to snipe at Koevermans or Johnson to make that work and second, we've never even heard of wingers on this team in 6 years.
My point though is that we have to put two strikers side by side in order to create chances for our DP striker or our second best striker, Ryan Johnson, who almost always seem to be completely crowded by the defenders as the lone strikers.
