FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Topping the list of priorities for the New England Revolution this offseason was the installment of a new head coach to lead the club into the future. Enter Brad Friedel, officially unveiled as the seventh head coach in Revolution history early last week.

With Friedel on board, New England’s focus now turns to building their roster for the 2018 campaign, and some critical decisions loom with the deadline to exercise or decline contract options for next year set for the afternoon of Monday, November 27.

Both Friedel and General Manager Michael Burns have expressed a belief that the Revolution’s roster doesn’t require a major overhaul, but they’ve also acknowledged that changes need to be made after the Revs missed out on the postseason for a second consecutive season.
