Rotating players has been a trend for Orlando City SC since James O’Connor took over as the Lions have had five distinct lineups in as many matches under the head coach, who fielded 18 different starters in the month of July so far.
More changes will come when the team takes the LA Galaxy tonight and, again, a new lineup can be expected as center back Shane O’Neill, who started the last three matches and had some solid performances, will need to be replaced as he’s suspended. More changes could happen due to physical conditions, as O’Connor said during his press conference following the 2-0 defeat to New York City FC on Thursday.
