If we are to, we must be more consistent.

If FK makes some changes to the team. I've been trying to get FK to go with a more offensive lineup, but he continues to play either 4-5-1 formation which is just all long balls to the loan forward or a 4-4-2 with 2 CDM (Pause and Pardo). We need to start scoring some goals, we've scored a grand total of 15 goals in 13 games 1.15 average. With Rolfe back from injury and Freidrich do to be ready for the next game, everybody will be back (expect Gibbs) for selection. With that said here's what I would like to see as our starting 11 with our current roster.

________________Tornaghi_______________
_Gragan____Berry_____Freidrich____Segares_
________________Pardo__________________
_Nyarko__________________________Pappa_
________________Grazzini________________
_Rolfe___________________________Oduro_

Subs:

Johnson
Jumper (Segares or Gargan if needed)
Robayo (Grazzini or Pardo if needed)
Puppo (Rolfe or Oduro if needed)
Bone (Pappa, Nyarko, or Grazzini if needed)
Barouch (Rolfe or Oduro if needed)
Anibaba (for Berry or Freidrich if needed)
Pause (for those Pauselovers, he could come in the 85th minute to give Pardo a break if needed)

Are biggest problem is SCORING, it wouldn't be so bad if our defense was one of the best in the league, but it's not 17 goals against 1.31. So we need to start scoring some goals, we've had 3 games scoing ZERO goals 0-1-2 (W/T/L), we've had 6 games scoring 1 goal 1-2-3 (W/T/L), we've had 3 games scoring 2 goals 3-0-0 (W/T/L) and one game scoring 3 goals 1-0-0 (W/T/L). So as you can see if we can score more than 1 goal in a game we are undefeated 4-0-0 (W/T/L). So if we could just put out a more offensive lineup we would stand a better chance of winnings some games.

So if FK puts out the same old lineup on June 17th against New York 4-5-1 or 4-4-2 with 2 CDM, I'll just turn it off because the best that will happen is 1-1 tie. We don't need ties, we need to start WINNING games.

So to answer your question if FK starts playing a more offensive lineup like the one above then YES we will make to playoffs. Not only make the make playoffs, but make a run at MLS CUP 2012.

If he keeps the same old lineup, then NO, it will be our 3rd year in a row we will be WATCHING the playoffs on TV. So it all comes down to FK, keep things the way they are .500 at best NO playoffs or make a few changes and not only make a run at the playoffs, but MLS CUP 2012.
