D.C. United

4-2-3-1

GK Bill Hamid

RB Leonardo Jara

CB Frederic Brillant

CB Steve Birnbaum

LB Joseph Mora

CDM Russel Canouse

CDM Chris Durkin

RM Paul Arriola

CAM Luciano Acosta

LM Lucas Rodriguez

ST Wayne Rooney

This is another fairly consensus line-up. D.C. United could really use an upgrade at CB over Brillant. Lucas Rodriguez takes Yamil Asad’s place in the lineup. Asad has been a productive stater in MLS the last two years, but Rodriguez could be another plus attacker for an already dangerous offense.
