OL Reign Preseason Depth Chart: Midfielders

To describe the OL Reign midfield in a word, they have diversity. The team has depth in each midfield role, and can shuffle how they deploy those roles based on the opponent or even based on game state with substitutions. Even with some expected absences for international duty during the Olympics, midfield looks to be their strongest band, and how well they are able to dominate this area of the field will likely determine the team’s fate this season.

Assuming OL Reign head coach Farid Benstiti continues to deploy some variation of the Reign’s typical 4-3-3, he’ll have some tough decisions to make about which three talents should be on the pitch in midfield each week, but with these players there aren’t any bad choices.
