It's nuts how you could make a servicable starting 11 entirely out of akron players

Nagbe-Bunbury-Zakuani

Zemanski - Gavin - Ampai

Korb - Valentin - Kitchen - Sarkodie

Bush

the attack is pretty nuts on that squad

And except for Bush and Gavin, I believe we that we could have had that entire team together last year (with Mattocks as a reserve). Not that last year turned out badly or anything. :)

I disagree. Zakuani is more of a winger. He moves to MF.

Nagbe - Bunbury

Zemanski - Gavin - Ampai - Zakuani

Bush
