With this group my eleven would be:
-----------------Howard
--Orozco-----Brooks---Zimmerman---Villafana
-----------------Bradley
---Pulisic-------Nagbe---------F. Johnson
-----------Wood---------Altidore

Dempsey as a super sub?
I just like Nagbe better at this point as a #10. But what I do think is crucial is playing 2 up front...that's when Jozy is at his best.

i think nagbe is better suited out w/o jones. But not sure hes had enough of a run on this team.
Back 4 once again will be an issue
um, no, biggest relief is no Zusi (doesn't cut it at this level, set pieces or otherwise), Klesjtan didn't show well in his audition, Besler while well known to us is slow afoot and sometimes slow in decision-making, and I think, in terms of Feilhaber, he was screwed by JK and it's been too long, too many injuries.
bw in dc re. Pulisic, you bet! Scored his 1st Champions' League goal last week, a beautifully simple flic under pressure, couldn't have been better executed.
Good to see some new MLS blood and hopefully Arena will integrate them, a lot of new faces, new chemistry.
Let the new era start well!!
injured; out of form; doesn't play
him and green probably get a Gold Cup look. if he doesnt then i'd say his days with the USMNT are likely over
We need a dual national Italian to play LB
Midfield is deep starting to think midfield will have pulisic in the middle.
Also is a 3-5-2 possible?
BHE, maybe it will be Ream? Not thrilling, but a known contributor. Seems as though Fabian is in the MF.
Jon, how serious the Acosta injury?
