The DYNAMO are clearly in their best period of soccer this year both with results and consistent play. Tonite Dominic Kinnear will again have to alter his line-up based on players not being available. This is the challenge in MLS…to get results and points with variable line-ups on a weekly basis…it is not a stretch to think that the Dynamo will find it difficult in the short-term to field the same eleven plays. Missing tonite again are Eddie Robinson (hamstring), Richard Mulrooney (post surgery recovery knee) and Dwayne DeRosario who is suspended……The Crew are improved and will rely on the creativity of Guillermo Schelotto and the goal scoring ability of ALEJANDRO MORENO the former DYNAMO who always produces against his former teammates. They will be missing Olympian ROBBIE RODGERS who is off with the DYNAMO STUART HOLDEN and PATRICK IANNI representing the UNITED STATES…..
Look for a 4-5-1 from SIGI SCMID and the CREW………….Can the DYNAMO continue to bring passionate effort to this league game.

Juan TOYA is gone to ROMANIA as his transfer has gone through….ZACH THORNTON has been moved to CHIVAS USA from Colorado after BRAD GUZAN has moved on to ASTON VILLA…Thornton could start in Chicago tonite against the team that he led to an MLS CUP in 1998…..OLYMPIC soccer starts prior to the opening ceremonies in CHINA this Wednesday and fans can catch all the games on some form of NBC programming who have set up a soccer channel…
