Nick Rogers, the Minnesota United president, describes this year as "more stressful than most" - and it is not hard to see why.

Minnesota have just five months to prepare for their inaugural MLS season yet they are also fighting to extend their final NASL campaign for as long as possible.

Focusing on the present and planning for the future is a tricky balancing act, indeed.  "We've got a tremendous amount of work to do," Rogers says. He's not kidding.
