Collen Warner was never naturally a defensive midfielder. He isn’t a great passer like Rasmus Schuller and isn’t tricky like Ibson. He’s not a young prospect like Collin Martin and he’s not a South American to take a flyer on like Maximiano. Collen Warner isn’t anything special, but he is versatile, versatile enough to play in 42 games over the last two years for Minnesota United, or two out of every three games. For a team with so much turnover, that’s a significant chunk. In terms of appearances for midfielders, he’s behind Ibson (57) and above Schuller (34).
