Was the same thing last week as well and it cleared up and rain didn't come till late night.
You would probably see Mena flipped out to the rights as the Marking Back and Brillant in the middle as the defacto sweeper.
NYCFC Snapchat showed both Iraola and RJ practicing today.
So, Veiera apparently hinted that we might play a 3-3-4 against the Lions on Friday night. Any thoughts on how that might look?
I came up with this, although I admit I have a low confidence level here.

We discussed this a little in the formation thread - but I think any 3-3-4 formation would play more like a 3-3-3-1, as our wingers track back a lot. I also think the 3-3-4 is a suitable option once Lampard is back, with a deep lying midfield of Lampard-Bravo-Pirlo behind an attacking four of Mendoza-Mix-[Shelton/Taylor] and Villa holding the line.
Swap TT in for TMac and it'll be a track meet up front. There would be zero chance that Orlando could man-mark three of our forwards.
lineupbuilder.com + screenshot + paint (wouldn't let me embed). Maybe I was doing the embedding part wrong, who knows.
I think that is an actual 334, but would end up playing like a 532, since the wingers would be playing defense the whole game since you would never get your forwards the ball with any time.
Worth noting: We're really lucky to have Vieira, who is giving us something exciting to watch. No 0-0 draws with Colorado, no relying on Medhi (!!!) for a month and a half. We'll always score.
If Saunders starts, is Vieira not confident with Johansen? Too supportive of Saunders because of his appeal inside the locker room and in the supporter section? What will it take for everyone that's not Saunders Obsessed to see the light of Eirik "Lurch" Johansen!?!?
I get that, and could see that, but my response was to:
If we were to stick with a 3-4-3 or a 4-3-3, Lampard would be playing the wing? Or is Mattarita LW and Bravo playing on the backline and Lamps moving into midfield and Mix covering for Pirlo?
It's messed up that Frank has been out all this time with nothing more than bad gas.
Actually their contribution is even. Both with goal and assist in game 1. Yes, Mix had assist in game 2. But TMac drew the PK, which in my opinion should count as an assist. So they are pretty darn even so far. I'd argue a few more dangerous moments in general from Mix and a lot more interplay between TMac and Villa. So take your pick.

Is there no way the 3-3-4 will be used to give #whitepoku or #pokupokupoku a chance?
Vieira went with the WM (3-4-3 or 3-2-2-3) vs. Toronto. I think he'll go further back in the history books and pull out the original 2-3-5. The Pyramid hath returned.
