Options on the wing give Union flexibility; centerpiece Sapong will lead the line

This is the third positional segment of our 2016 season preview series. You can see our breakdown of defenders or midfielders from the prior two weeks. This week, we’ll wrap up our preview with the goalkeepers. Fans can suggest their starters by using the hashtag #UnionXI or by leaving their comment below. Who should start out of this group?

Off the bat, keep in mind it appears the Union will trot out the 4-2-3-1 formation head coach Jim Curtin has been accustom to using since taking over in 2014. That doesn’t mean it can’t (or won’t) change, but we’re going to assume the Union stay in typical formation.
