FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Five fresh faces have already joined the New England Revolution since the close of the 2018 season and more are likely on the way ahead of the new campaign, but it’s a player who arrived late last year that could prove to be one of the most important pieces of the 2019 squad.
Michael Mancienne featured in 10 of the final 11 games last season after joining the Revs via free transfer from Nottingham Forest in early August, and while he already has 900 minutes of MLS action under his belt, it feels a bit like he’s starting anew as he kicks off his first full season in Foxborough.
