We spoke with Pat Murphy from Massive Report, SB Nation's Columbus Crew SC blog, about what to expect from the Crew in tomorrow's match against the Philadelphia Union.
tBG) Columbus was within a goal of winning the MLS Cup last season. The club made quite a few moves during the offseason - can you tell us about the comings and goings and whether you think it'll be enough to put Columbus over the top.
MR) While there were several changes to the team, none of them were major. Crew SC returns all 11 starters from last year’s MLS Cup Final and in the first game, the team only used one new player in forwards Conor Casey off the bench.
