D.C. United 2016 Countdown - 18 days: Chris Rolfe has to be on the field, but where?

Will United's best field player dictate United's tactics this year?

Chris Rolfe was D.C. United's best field player in 2015, and it wasn't really particularly close. The headbanded one (well, sadly, the formerly headbanded one) scored 10 goals and assisted on 4 more last season, and the year ended with nearly every reader of B&RU calling for his return in 2016.

So the question this preseason isn't whether, but how he fits into Ben Olsen's plans. The question is made more difficult by the fact that he has yet to appear through two preseason games.
