TFCBloggerI have started working through my proposed formations for the DC United game. I will not be finalizing this until after the game vs the LA Galaxy tonight but am going with the same formation Winter started the last game with assuming Stevanovic's knock has healed.
TFC have been playing a 4 4 3 with Frei (GK) being involved in distributing the ball short and quickly to spike the attack. Cann and Attakora have been the most consistent as center backs although Attakora has been tactically substituted in the last two games. Ty Harden has been in right back and Borman has seen some consistency in left back.
Julian De Guzman is coming back from a long term knee injury but has been gradually been introduced into games and has calmed down the back four.
Stevanovic has looked like a diamond in the rough in left mid. He is able to beat his defenders and feed balls into the box but has lost possession at times. Peterson starting on right midfield and cutting into the center has been effective.
Maicon has taken up a withdrawn striker/playmaker role which has worked well when feeding balls to Martina on the right. Gordon has been doing the business as the main striker and has scored some impressive goals with his head. I'm hoping another Rudd Van Nistelrooy!
