Colin's Keys to slicing through St. Louis

WFC24-Digital-KeysToTheMatch-16x9_(1)

Tune in this Saturday to myself and Asa Rehman on 101.1 HD3 and CKNW.com, starting with our pre-match show and ending with our post-match show. Saturday's match kicks off at 6:30 p.m. PT.

Here are the keys for the 'Caps to get a big win over St. Louis CITY SC at BC Place on Saturday.

Experience

It was a busy transfer window for the 'Caps.

Thomas Müller, Sebastian Schonlau, and Joedrick Pupe all have very good experience. Schonlau and Pupe were captains at their previous clubs.

This experience will be needed in the remaining league and cup games.

Wide open

The competition for the front wide places is heating up.

Ali Ahmed is back from injury, Jayden Nelson and Emmanuel Sabbi are flying, and Kenji Cabrera has joined the fold.

No complacency and high expectations.

Be aware

St. Louis have players that can cause us problems defensively.

We especially need to be wary of João Klauss, Marcel Hartel, and Tomáš Ostrák.

Keep the back door shut.
