If we do play Nielsen, it will be because Kronberg is not 100%. Frankly, until recently no one really cared about CONCACAF champions league either.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36669930.post-58257980684833935892012-06-19T06:43:11.715-05:002012-06-19T06:43:11.715-05:00Anon.

It has more to do with fixture congestion. That and Kronberg started last year in the quarters. Jimmy started vs Colorado because we didn't have a league game and kept in fresh.<br /><br />Nyk, it was before there was a homegrown player initiative in MLS. That only came about in the last few years. Kempin was our first player signed under the homegrown player rule that MLS has. Another reason is that Vermillion was actually signed by the league as part of Project 40 and then allocated out to KC, similar to how we got Francisco Gomez.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12931590118053363115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36669930.post-7677984392619031642012-06-19T06:41:06.899-05:002012-06-19T06:41:06.899-05:00I agree with Anonymous that Nielsen will start for...I agree with Anonymous that Nielsen will start for the remainder of the open cup games. I expect that Vermes will field as many starters as possible and then sub on others if we get a cushion of goals.Rob Swensonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36669930.post-71159954699913045502012-06-18T23:46:28.560-05:002012-06-18T23:46:28.560-05:00Why is Scott Vermillion not considered a "hom...Why is Scott Vermillion not considered a "home grown" player?Nyk Edingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02054136872790020560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36669930.post-83797675455274131942012-06-18T23:39:52.411-05:002012-06-18T23:39:52.411-05:00Mike, You don't really think Vermes would have...Mike, You don't really think Vermes would have sat Captain Jimmy for the quarterfinals do you? We are a mere 270 minutes from silverware and a spot in the CCL! No, I'm betting we see the full first team against Dayton...well as many as are healthy!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
