FOXBORO - The Revolution have the best record in Major League Soccer, but the players and coaches agree the team hasn't yet hit a consistent stride.

Suspensions, national team duties and injuries, which have contributed to 31 man-games lost, have prevented the Eastern Conference-leading Revs (6-3-2) from fielding the same starting lineup on a regular basis. In fact, they have had the same lineup in only 2-of-11 games. As a result, the Revs have had a tendency to look terrific in one half and not so dynamic in the other.
