With what essentially amounts to 2 games a week over the next 5 weeks Jeff Cassar and Co ™ have a lot of unenviable decisions to make. The importance of league games vs USOC matches as well as rotation, recovery, and squad cohesion will all play heavily into those decisions and we are likely in for some unfamiliar starting 11’s over the next few games.
With that in mind, as I normally do, I’m going to opine a little bit on something that I think will be valuable to keep in mind over this stretch and really for the remainder of the season.
