The expected 4-5-1 that we're going to play is just the 'empty bucket' 4-4-2 with a forward further back in the midfield. I don't see how moving one of our forwards back significantly increases our chances. As I remember last season posession around the 18 wasn't a significant problem, it was turning that posession into a decent shot where we kept blowing it.<BR/><BR/>And while we scored 3 goals today, it was against a team who played in the league the night before.Jason Maxwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01203216444033618955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4400528122511005165.post-11429717045304377052008-03-05T13:01:00.000-07:002008-03-05T13:01:00.000-07:00Do you really need two forwards on the field to sc...Do you really need two forwards on the field to score goals? They didn't today scoring three. You said yourself, "Goals by our new signing Rafael Gomes, Nick LaBrocca, and Jovan Kirovski." Only one forward in that bunch.<BR/><BR/>Maybe the increased possession with more midfielders will allow the Rapids to control more game play and create more chances.Bonjihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03994311016750091672noreply@blogger.com
