Santino Quaranta To Take A Bigger Responsibility In The Midfield

Goff write a really good article about DC United's central midfield and how Tino would be involved in the plan.
In the article he interviews both Tino and Coach Onalfo about Tino's role in the central midfield. Now after reading this article it seems pretty clear that Onalfo is looking in to pairing up Simms and Tino on the midfield, I assume that Simms will take a more defensive role since Tino never really shown any qualities in that area. Onalfo also went on about Tino's work ethic and attacking qualities. And I agree that Tino has that when he wants to, but if he is not inspired he will be invisible and not very productive. Unfortunately I have to say that most of the games last year he was invisible and even though he shows bursts of brilliance and have a great shot they are far apart. To build our midfield around Tino is in my opinion a mistake but I hope Tino will rise to the challenge and prove me wrong.
