The Crew’s change in formation vs. Atlanta United worked, showed Black & Gold’s versatility

Caleb Porter doesn’t like much change on the field. The Columbus Crew head coach believes in his style of play and won’t often go away from that once he’s built his team in his image.

“For me, I don’t believe you should be doing that (changing tactics) every game,” Porter said this week, “because at the end of the day, when you start getting too tricky and you start thinking you’re the reason you’re winning and guys overthink it and start changing tactics every game, I don’t see those teams win. The best teams, they build from a position of strength, they execute and they have little tweaks.
