Ending The Kelyn Rowe Holding Midfield Experiment

Just so everyone is very clear, I like Kelyn Rowe and he is very good at soccer.

But he should not be playing in a defensive midfield role for the New England Revolution, especially if Scott Caldwell is available. This was the case for the season opener last Sunday in Houston where Jay Heaps started Gershon Koffie and Rowe behind Lee Nguyen in the center of the midfield.

Also, to be very clear, Kelyn Rowe did not have a terrible game despite coming off at halftime with a knock.
