Lipka did not score a man up goal last year, though I agree with Doctah, I still think he was a important cog for the unit.  I think his skill set matches up better than Dordevic, but I wouldn't be shocked if Dordevic made it over him. Maybe for taking his starting spot, a trade-off could be for Lipka to stay on man-up?

As for down-low, I am a little stumped. In a lot of instances teams will use four attackmen on a man-up, but hardly ever do you see four or more midfielders.  Maybe since the team is so fluid in terms of positions, it doesn't matter that there might be four or more middies on the unit? We've talked a lot about it but Curry and Dordevic could easily play attack, and Scanlan is a natural midfielder as well.  But I don't know which of them I'd pick to be down low, other than Scanlan.

Seebold could fill the lefty spot but he's not established. Aburn and Donnely are considered finishers, but they're even less established than Seebold.  I've long liked Quinn as a man-up specialist but as a righty he's in that Dordevic/Lipka group.

My best guess would be Scanlan, Rhefuss, Buttermore, Lipka, Trimboli and Curry. Or, to simplify things just keep the starting lineup and swap Lipka for Dordevic.
