Could Sporting KC fans see more of Medranda at left back?
When the starting lineups were announced for Sporting Kansas City's match in Toronto, there were a few, okay there were a lot of surprised fans. There was some amazement that Jacob Peterson was the center forward instead of sliding Krisztián Németh to the middle but the real surprise was Colombian midfielder Jimmy Medranda listed at left back.
Outside back on both sides has been a revolving door this year with at least six players having started at left or right so when Medranda was listed, many fans thought the team was throwing in the towel to be ready for the upcoming Open Cup match .
