We really have to give a lot of credit to Joe for this season - he's got all these young players motivated to perform, and in a way that fits within the team structure and ethos. Like the team has been able to slot players in and out and, irrespective of result, the players have played hard, they've been put in positions that maximize their strengths and the coaching staff has worked on them to make sure they are contributors. The only player who has been a non-contributor has been Boucher, and even while X hardly plays when he does play he fits within the team style. Everyone else - Gonzalez, Walsh, Garza, Queta, Minott, even Amari and Harper - they know their roles and they play within their lanes, and in a way that allows them to be plugged in and out. There's a clear hierarchy but if one of those guys are out whoever steps up knows how Joe wants them to play.
