[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The nearest MLSNext 1 teams both have 1 full time GK and a field player who is the emergency backup. I've seen MLS Academy teams with two keepers and some with just one. My DS team (will be MLSNext 2) has two keepers who rotate regularly between goal and, occasionally, outfield spots. One of my pet peeves is that too often GK development (on the rare occasions it actually happens) doesn't expose them to outfield positions. I can always tell which keepers have spent time at another position and which ones have never played anywhere but goal.[/quote] That is pretty unrealistic as you get older. GK is a dedicated position with people who don't want to play field roles. They have to be developed to be GK and build field skills relevant to GK--not other roles. Maybe in Next 2 or lower level a GK can toggle between a field role and GK, but the higher level competition and older you get, that's a non starter. [/quote]
