Preview: Union at Houston Dynamo
One of the Union’s two road wins came at Houston last year. Both Danny Mwanga and Shea Salinas had breakout games. Who will be the big name this year as the Union travel to Robertson Stadium to open the 2011 season?

We conclude our roundtable discussion of the Union at the start of the 2011 season, with one addition to the chat.
The Union’s 2011 preseason has been filled with so many questions. As the season opener draws ever closer, the PSP has part one of a roundtable discussion about some of those questions.
In a conference call on Wednesday, Union manager Peter Nowak talked about keeping the team’s tactics fluid, what the young talent is showing in camp, and cutting the goals in half this year.
The full Union 2011 broadcast schedule is released. The team joins the rest of Philadelphia’s sports world on Comcast SportsNet.
With the Year Two bearing down on us, the Union’s preseason off the field leaves a sour taste for even the most rabid supporters.
Jonathan Tannenwald of Philly.com’s The Goalkeeper has posted further quotes from Wednesday’s press conference with Peter Nowak.
Peter Nowak spoke to reporters today via teleconference from Greece. He said the roster is not complete, that the club decided not to exercise the option to buy Orozco Fiscal at the end of his one-year loan on January 1. He said many are “looking at snaps rather than the big picture.”
The Union sign Ryan Richter and Thorne Holder while waiving Nick Zimmerman and JT Noone. Meanwhile, Michael Orzco Fiscal has disappeared from the roster.
The Ergotelis website lists some lineup information following Monday’s 1-1 draw with the Union. Ergotelis manager says “We exchange views and probably some players.”
