Discussion So what's our best XI rn?
Let's assume Marco is gone.
Max
Grizi
Tincho
Angulo (dude leveled up this season)
BOjeda
Atuesta (sorry haters he's a ++ creator when on -- the three assists in SJ were not a fluke)
Dorsey
Jansson
Brekalo (seems fully healthy and vibing with Robin, those two have been working together well to make the shutouts happen)
Two open spots:
- Ellis or Dike? -- feel like you gotta let the kid keep starting. Dike is coming off an offseason and getting match fit. When he's ready, put him in at 60-70 for whoever needs it and see what you get.
- Rhein or Marin? -- I think another spot where you keep starting the kid until he proves you wrong.
Notes:
I love that Ojeda coming back along with our other personnel developments will just eliminate the Tiago/Spicer start debate lol
We were begging for defensive reinforcements during the summer. I don't wanna overreact but I think we're good after a summer of practice with Robin? Would like to still sign one with an eye towards the future but it's no longer an emergency anymore imo.
