With so many absences in the lineup tonight, we turned it over to the readers to pick a community starting XI.
The result is a lineup with a mixture of experience and youth with two players who would be making their first team debuts in Nathan Harriel and Matheus Davó.
Though Alejandro Bedoya picked up a bit of a left ankle injury, head coach Jim Curtin expects him to play through any pain or discomfort to lead the squad against Supporters’ Shield winners New England Revolution tonight.
Responders to the poll agreed that’s the right move but leadership will also be needed from center back Jakob Glesnes, who will have inexperience to his right if Harriel gets his first MLS action at right back and Stuart Findlay to his left with just 181 minutes on the season.
