Projected Starting XI vs. China


Recommended Posts

Hey, let's pretend we can read Herdman's mind and take a stab at the lineup for the June 6 opener!

 

I won't do the formation graphic thingie, just a list.

 

GK: McLeod

D: Wilkinson, Buchanan, Moscato, Chapman

M: Scott, Schmidt, Kyle

F: Sinclair, Belanger, Filigno

 

Chapman a bit surprising, and we'll actually probably see Sesselmann either in her place at LB (or in Moscato's place at CB), but what the hell, I've got a hunch.

 

Part of me really wants to say that Fleming will get the nod, but I'm not letting myself do it.

 

Thoughts?

 

p.s. I'll probably get 8/11 right, at most.

notes:

[ 1 ] I have serious doubts about Sesselmann  being a starter for this team. She's not moving well at all and is having trouble staying  with her mark.  This was evident in the French friendly, Houston Dash vs Sky Blue and Canada's recent practice game with Mexico.

[ 2 ] Recently, Herdman has Kyle on the bench and then subs her in for Scott  during later parts of the game.

[ 3 ]  Fleming has already played a full 90 minutes against China in the 2015 Ba'on Cup.

I like this 11.  I really think Fleming will start.  She has gotten quite a bit of playing time this year, plus Chapman and Fleming were Herdman's only bright spots from the Nigeria game yesterday.
