Judd: Are the Revs 2-3 Players Away?
Andy Looks At Which Positions Could Help Right the Ship
www.theblazingmusket.com
I don’t get to combine words with charts as often as I’d like these days, but I heard something on the broadcast of the #NERevs loss at Portland…
Specifically that NE was “2-3 players away from the turnaround really going Caleb Porter’s way”
I decided to dig in on that claim.

This is, at once, a move that makes sense for both parties and ALSO doesn't *really* make sense for either.
Turner needs minutes to regain traction with the US, but MLS likely not preferred league to do so.
#NERevs need to stop leaking goals but have larger positions of need, esp for the money.
