Rimando in, Wingert out

A bit of a starting lineup announced for this one. I'm not terribly surprised by Grabavoy starting, but Wingert being benched was a surprise. However, of all of the awful play last Saturday his may have been the worst. A complete howler.

* 18 - Nick Rimando (GK)
* 2 - Tony Beltran
* 3 - Robbie Russell
* 4 - Jamison Olave
* 5 - Kyle Beckerman
* 6 - Nat Borchers
* 8 - Will Johnson
* 10 - Robbie Findley
* 11 - Javier Morales
* 20 - Ned Grabavoy
* 84 - Clint Mathis

Substitutes

* 24 - Kyle Reynish (GK)
* 14 - Yura Movsisyan
* 16 - Fabian Espindola
* 17 - Chris Wingert
* 23 - Raphael Cox
* 25 - Tino Nunez
* 77 - Andy Williams

I'm expecting a consertive approach in this one with the 4-5-1. Look for RSL to focus on midfield possession, and try to spring Findley free in to open space on counterattacks.

I'd also expect Espindola as the first sub if the team needs a goal.
