The U.S. women's national team's biggest hole tentatively and stunningly closed on Tuesday, when Julie Ertz was named to the USWNT's last pre-World Cup roster after nearly 20 months away from soccer.
All the while, Andonovski had been in touch with Ertz. But in public comments, he'd grown increasingly"We had a conversation, and obviously she needs a little more time to prepare before she even starts training with the team. So, we just decided to give her a little more space and time until she's fully ready to join.""Obviously we see that she hasn't committed to any team in the league so far, and the time is running out, pretty much ...
It does, though, offer a potential last-minute solution to what has been the USWNT's most notable recent shortcoming. In her absence, Andonovski has stuck with the same 4-3-3 formation, with a similar midfield structure. He has often inserted Andi Sullivan into Ertz's position. But Sullivan, while a serviceable defensive midfielder, is not a destroyer, and definitely not a like-for-like Ertz replacement. So, as a consequence, the USWNT midfield has often lacked bite.
