What's the most probable line-up? Does anyone know what they used in the Jax game?
The lineup would seem to be relevant information. Frustrating that we can't get basic info.
The Jax friendly is irrelevant. It was a fitness friendly that gave them a last chance to assess trialists. They will have played their entire squad during the game and probably altered formation several times just to fit everyone in.

In all likelihood, most players in the squad would have got a quarter at least, so even if we knew the team it would be no indication as to the probable lineup come March.
As for Poku, he could be a starter, but will probably start from the bench to make way for more experienced MLSers at the start of the season.

I'd say the camera had some issues. Ajax were playing 4,000 miles away, in Europe.
Did you mean Armada?

Rather annoying that there is no "seat selection" choice for the Manchester exhibitions. The last thing I want is to have a seat stuck between two gigantic obese people. That's partly why I prefer the choice of selecting a seat on the end of rows plus I find it exceptionally hard talking to people I don't know. Oh well maybe I'll sit wherever the hell I want anyway perhaps they won't mind. I'm definitely going to the first game not certain about the second yet. Might make my decision based on how the first game goes even if it is 2 for the price of 1 or half price whatever it was. Early Sunday afternoon isn't exactly ideal for early train travel. Still any chance to travel somewhere (especially into Manchester I guess) is a good day for me.
I'm guessing one block of seats at least has been sold out. East 5 has now become East 6 on the quick seats selection.

I think there will be plenty of seats to sit on and if not they may open the terracing behind the goals were you can stand.

Oh its not about lack of seats. Its more about jobsworth stewards treating people like idiots and guiding towards seats. Sure it will only be one stand open and presumably the blocks on sale are central. I'm sitting at the back of the stand if possible that's the best way to get a decent view (as decent as you can get in a one tier stand) never liked sitting in the first few rows pitchside.
I got given first/second row seats for both games. It didn't really give me a choice in the matter. I guess that's what I get for booking straight after the tickets go on sale, of course.

No clue what they put out for the Jax game but my guess for opening game @ Orlando would be:
-------------------------Nemec-------------Villa-------------------------
----------------------------------Diskerud--------------------------------
--------------------Grabavoy-------------Velasquez---------------------
------------------------------------Poku-----------------------------------
-----Wingert--------Mendoza--------Hernandez-------Williams-----
Woulnd't have had Poku on there a few days ago, but I am hearing a lot of good things about him.
This, but swap in Calle for Velasquez now that he appears to be joining camp. I'm pretty high on Calle.

Agreed, didn't want to jump to conclusions of Calle with his visa ordeal, but now that it looks like its ready to be confirmed he is my favorite to slide into one of the starting mid positions.
