Chris Armas has full faith in the depth of his Colorado Rapids squad as he ponders potential changes ahead of Saturday’s clash with CF Montreal in MLS.
The Rapids are enjoying an impressive campaign and currently sit fifth in the Western Conference standings, nine points adrift of leaders Real Salt Lake.
They thrashed St. Louis City 3-0 on the road on Wednesday after overcoming Austin FC last weekend, and at the end of a busy week, Armas will likely make some changes.
“We’ll take a hard look and think about fresh legs and then tactically what makes the most sense, but I have a lot of confidence in our roster,” Armas said.
“I have a lot of confidence in the depth, confidence in players’ abilities to suffer and increase the comfort zones to suffer and to endure a little bit more physically.
“It’s a difficult part of any coach’s job. Only 11 guys can start and you only use a finite amount to divvy out. We’ll take a close look, but again, I have a lot of confidence.
“We have really strong internal competition that’s driving the team forward and then I can take the tough decisions, but that’s my job.”
Nothing but praise for our leader
