Eric Hartline-USA TODAY Sports a few questions about the Eastern Conference’s other Red Bull-styled side
OaM: With some of the high-profile offseason exits from the Philadelphia squad such as Brenden Aaronson and Mark McKenzie, which players have been stepping up into the lineup, and where have the Union had to adjust?
While McKenzie’s exit hasn’t had much of an impact (Jack Elliott was already known as a solid defender before McKenzie was a frequent starter, and Elliott’s stepped up since the sale), Aaronson’s absence has been felt in the midfield. The Union has been trying to bolster their midfield with the additions of Leon Flach, Stuart Findlay, and most recently Daniel Gazdag. Overall though, the midfield is not all that weak. Flach, Jamiro Monteiro, and the rest of the midfield has stepped up.
