Game #20:FIRE @ Redballs 7/18/12 12:00pm (CSN)

Yes, this a noon start on a Wednesday.

New York played Sunday afternoon, so they'll have less than 3 days rest. Pappa should be back, but Freidrich will be out because of that BULLSHIT red card (I hope the FIRE at least tries to fight it). If Freidrich dosen't play then we will see Gargan back in the starting 11. With no Friedrich back there we will play 4-5-1 two defensive midfielders formation for sure.

I think that Oduro needs to sit this one out, he's either offsides or missing his chances.

Without Oduro:

--------------------Rolfe------------------

---------------------Alex------------------

--Pappa------------------------Nyarko--

-------Pause------------Pardo-----------

--Segares--Berry--Anibaba--Gargan--

------------------Johnson-----------------

If FK does start Oduro, then who sits Alex, Nyarko,Pappa, or Rolfe. We all know that it won't be Pause.

why do we have 4 players on defense? Maybe that is why we dont score as much

We always play four in the back, our problem is that play TWO defensive midfielders. FK needs to play a 4-4-2 formation with two forwards and ONE defensive midfielder.

This is what I would put out there

-------Rolfe------------Oduro--------

----------------Alex-------------------

--Pappa--------------------Nyarko--

----------------Pardo-----------------

-Segares-Berry-Anibaba--Gargan-

----------------Johnson--------------

We played them on June 16th and won 3-1, should of been 4-1.

Temperture at Harrison, New Jersey 100 degrees, WTF were they thinking. Final score will be 0-0 (That's the best we will be able to do) and two players with heat stroke.
