The effect one injured palyer can have

has anyone else had to totally re-jig their team structure since the Mzungu injury?

I have changed 7 players since the news and i now have no dpp sub from midfield to forwardline, how did everyone else deal with it?

Dont really see how 1 player can change 1/4 of your team, To answer your question swapped Mzungu for another person

haha i like it keep it simple. But to explain how i managed to change so many players it all worked on my structure.

i had penciled Mzungu in as a rookie that would play every game someone that was going to score me 60-80 every week, but i dont see anyone who can fill that void so i changed my mid structure from 3-0-3 too 4-0-2 and to do this i needed to pull money from other areas to make the $400,000. So my backs and forward are now cheaper than originally. Make sense?

If you've changed seven it would suggest you weren't too happy with your team in the first place..

Too go in with no Fwd/Mid MPP is a mistake I believe.

Mzungu wasn't the only option there..

Pretty much the same here, Muzungu out and Prestia in. Loosing him to injury was a dissapointment but you
cant let a single player destroy all your hard work.

ye i wasnt completely happy with my team but no-one is (unless you win it). I didnt pick prestia or smith because they have low job security and probably wont score much if they do play. dont agree with picking someone just because they have dpp, thats playing very defensively and you cant win it by doing that IMO

I hear ya. Was really counting on Muzungu in my mids. His injury precipitated a big rejig for me too. A straight swap for Prestia didn't work for me. I don't think it is a straight swap either. Muzungu was going to get regular games. Not convinced Prestia will.

maybe putting krakoeur in the midfield with a 3-0-3 structure might work well as there are more choices off forward rookies

Wes Mantooth · March 16, 2011, 10:48:28 PM

why will prestia not get games? what has he done wrong?

Usman · March 17, 2011, 01:23:06 PM

There are just question marks on his job security many think he won't play early in the season. There are bigger bodies which is much needed at the gc aswell
