Brown and Watson up top with Trembly in the midfield.
Backline will be Pierce, Pope, Akwari and Kamler.

Brown???

Brown has been playing Mid all along, but according to one of the articles he is actually a forward, so since he's been doing okay as a Mid, maybe he'll be OUTSTANDING as forward. In fact, I expect it. Brown and Watson, what a combination! Why, it'll be 5-1 RSL, and I only allow the one because it is the Galaxitives we're playing. :D

I know Brown played forward with the Revs and the Quakes, but I am surprised that Trembly is replacing him in the mid just so RSL could move Brown to the forward position. Why is Cila or Washington on the team if we have "mr.versatile" on the team?
I like Brown and I think he is a good worker, but he is a roleplayer at best. Lets put a real forward out there.

This is gonna be so weird! I cannot wait to see what happens. Even if we lose miserably, like... we were anyway, so big deal! I'm so excited for Jamie to start. Now the poor guy has to try to live up to all the hype! 😲

See you all there!

Who do you suggest? No one on the roster has been able to get the job done. Cila is really the only one who hasn't really had a chance to show his stuff but everyone one else on the roster hasn't been able to finish.

Chris Brown is a real forward, lets give him a chance tonight and see what he can do.

I said earlier Washington or Cila should get the start over Brown. They are natural forwards. Brown has played as a midfielder. He has played forward before, but never with any good results. And though his workrate is good, he hasn't gotten the job done there either.
And if any player has had a chance to show his stuff already, its Brown. He has played in every match already.

Brown is a good guy. He works hard. But lets not pretend he is a star, let alone a starting forward. Washington might be older, but he has at least gathered a substancial amount of stats in his time.

My opinion is that Brown is a sub forward, if he even plays foward at all.

Well, maybe we'll at least see a cross come in from the right side now that Brown is up top...

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Chris Brown has shown a lot of hustle when the team as a whole has seemed lethargic. He has worked hard and I think he's contributed a lot. But heck.. what do I know? I'm excited to see what happens tonight. I bet Jamie is nervous.
