And we usually play well when Maxi is a midfielder and not a forward. I guess Parks being there provides someone who can carry the ball forward, but Maxi in the midfield is where he is best.
I’m trying as best I can to replicate the lineup that dominated them. Also, bunching isi, mitri, and tin on the right will give them all sorts of headaches with Moreno & Ariola not in the lineup on their left side.
Yeah, he also said he doesn't want guys to go 23 days between games, so I would agree that Ring probably plays if he's healthy, and he also made it very clear that the front-line is likely Mitrita, Heber, and Isi. I would think the midfield is Parks-Maxi-Ring, otherwise the defense seems to be pretty self-explanatory.
DC is very vulnerable and I think we can run through Brillant the way we played in the second half vs. NCFC. Give them speed.
He seems to be better at protecting the back 3 if we assume Ring plays that Sweeper role
Wild thought...
What about Haak playing between the 2 other CBs and Ring in front of Haak?

Dome just giving out his lineup again for the Open Cup...
Maybe if he didn't say this then Ben Olsen would throw out a B team.
Ok, so 4-5 changes to last week’s lineup.
1. Medina
2. Tati
3. Bedoya
4. Rocha
5. Torres
6. Haak/Parks
Adding back Chanot, Sweat and Ring gets you 3; Isi for Medina gets you 4; maybe one more after that. Maybe not.
