The new approach from United has a direct link to the first goal the team scored this year, which this piece from Kelyn Soong makes note of. We’re probably not going to see a bunch of long-range rockets pan out, but just having defenders up as far as Brendan Hines-Ike means teams are going to be dealing with an awful lot when United gets into the attack.

Some days these posts can be a little tough, especially over the past year. D.C. United struggled, the world went to hell in a lot of ways, you know the drill. Today though?
