Why do I feel that Nowak made this substitution? My initial hypothesis was that it was because Daniel, being a midfielder, would be more likely to get forward with better pace and width.

"Of course, I’d like that," said Le Toux, who has split time this year at forward and midfielder. "But I’m a team player, and everybody wants to win. It’s something that hasn’t really come through for us. In two games playing together up top, it’s something I want more. "(The game in) Toronto showed what I can do with Danny. It’s one of our only games where we played together since last year. It’s what I want to bring, but it’s something for the coaches to decide. We are winning, so I suppose it is working."
