In what was probably one of the most embarrassing displays of defensive efficacy in recent Orlando City history, one starts to wonder where these terrible ideas stem from. Orlando City has virtually no pace across the back four, yet the team played a high line and pushed the fullbacks forward against an LA team with speed and an affinity for a counter attack.
It's obvious that Jason Kreis seeks width and attacking inspiration from his fullbacks, but it's also quite clear that the Lions can't seem to find a middle ground between defensive solidity and the attacking width the coach sees as a necessity.
