I bet we play the end of the bench and not care about the Open Cup. So the seat won't get hot at all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36669930.post-34855770430792046632009-07-06T12:58:30.242-05:002009-07-06T12:58:30.242-05:00Both of you are on the mark, but in Curt Onalfo...Both of you are on the mark, but in Curt Onalfo's world Harrington is a midfielder even when he's played his worst games in that position.<br /><br />I will say McKenzie's 1 on 1 has gotten better since the Santos game, but the move Oduro put on him in the second half looked just like what the Santos forwards did all game.<br /><br />Whatever happens, if we lose tomorrow the seat should start heating up for Onalfo and Vermes. I see Houston with no DP's, few internationals throughout the years and all I can say is Kinnear is miles ahead of Onalfo.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36669930.post-24643354752752563782009-07-06T12:29:59.795-05:002009-07-06T12:29:59.795-05:00Or put Besler at center back and put Harrington at...Or put Besler at center back and put Harrington at left back.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36669930.post-12497981684527899682009-07-06T12:22:38.473-05:002009-07-06T12:22:38.473-05:00Harrington should be playing CB or something while...Harrington should be playing CB or something while Jimmy is gone. McKenzie is horrible if the ball isnt on the ground, he did do a great job defending 1v1 and stepping in that last game but that header he missed that caused the Houston goal was a laugh at basically any level. He whiffed on more than a few in prior games as well. I just dont think he is ready to be playing hte MLS, plain and simple. While it gives up some size putting Harrington there he is still like 6 foot and pretty strong, and he acutally understands spacing and has above average skills.PVFCnoreply@blogger.com
