Details:

1) Barring injury, I want Magno and Hayward exclusively playing CM. This means Lund will only be subbing as a CM between Magno/Hayward. Of the guys we have available to us, I think he's the best ball handler. I wouldn't be opposed to moving Kevin O'Driscoll there but then that leaves us with a big, gaping hole at Stopper.

2) I'm putting Kramer up top to limit damage and with the
express purpose of giving him one task: pressure opposing defenders. If a bad pass is made then at least it's done on the opponents half of the field. Joe's job will be to just run around for 6 minutes and then hustle off to give Cavalleri and Pisha a blow. We don't need another person subbing in at LB and RB so having him there doesn't help us.

3) I think I may be capable of giving O'Driscoll a five minute
breather at Stopper. I think Curt Steiner can do that as well.

4) The weak spots are Jimmy and the three Joes. I think I've
done a decent job of spreading them out so as not to kill us.
We will have to make sure we don't wind up with Jimmy at LB
and Joe M. at RB or we're going to get our ass handed to us unless EVERYONE drops real deep and we keep it extremely compact to try and weather the storm until Mike Anderson and Roland Keller can come back.

Let me know your thoughts.
