It’s still a week away, but Real Salt Lake’s match against Portland is going to feature some fairly substantial changes to the lineup.
It’s inevitable at this point, with Kyle Beckerman and Sunny both receiving yellow card accumulation suspensions. We might also see a few international absences, too, in Joao Plata, Albert Rusnak, Jefferson Savarino and Shawn Barry.
There are a few options here, so let’s chat about them.
First, we could move Damir Kreilach into a DM spot, but the question remains about who else would play in the midfield with him. Pablo Ruiz hasn’t been making the bench after a couple very poor performances and Luke Mulholland is on the bench but hasn’t played a single minute.
