it will be very interesting to see what happens now that Jones is back. Does Arena go back to the Jones/Bradley combo in the middle? I hope not. Jones has played on the Left Wing before but mainly in a 4-3-3 formation. I just don't want to see CP shifted out wide.
I think we see Run DMB at LB today

Report: 17 deaths and other labor abuses at World Cup stadiums in Russia
At least 17 construction workers have died and many others have faced exploitation and labor abuses while building stadiums for the 2018 World Cup in Russia, according to a report by Human Rights Watch.
The report also said that FIFA, soccer's corruption-plagued governing body, lacked transparency and had failed to demonstrate that its monitoring system had effectively identified, prevented and corrected stadium labor conditions.

At least 70 workers died during construction for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia; 13 before the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro; six before the 2008 Olympics in Beijing; and zero during the building of the Olympic Park at the 2012 Olympics in London, according to trade union officials and news accounts.
Ambet Yuson, the general secretary of the trade union, said Tuesday that it was concerned the death toll in Russia would rise as laborers work from increasing heights and rush to complete construction ahead of the World Cup.
"It should be a wake-up call," Yuson said in a telephone interview from Geneva. "They are coming from the experience in Sochi. They should learn from that. If you go back to Sochi, most of the accidents and fatalities happened toward the end of construction. They should know better by this time."
