U.S.A. Soccer Formation

Lineup (4-1-2-3)

Tim Howard · Omar Gonzalez · DaMarcus Beasley · Clarence Goodson · Michael Parkhurst · Kyle Beckerman · Fabian Johnson · Alejandro Bedoya · Aron Johannsson · Clint Dempsey · Landon Donovan

Backline is as solid as it can get for the time being. Brooks would've been nice instead of Parkhurst.

Kyle Beckerman as a defensive mid has shown he can distribute effectively - only concern would be his tackling sometimes is very ineffective or very effective.

Bedoya and Johnson have shown speed, field awareness and great passing abilities.

Johannsson is a great attacking midfielder/forward. Think Jozy, but more reserved and not for physical size. Cool headed and primed to make a big impact. Until Jones calms down/pairs up with Bradley, it's difficult seeing him start effectively.

Donovan and Dempsey up top or complementing the line for Johansson would be deadly.

subs would be EJ for F. Johnson (dempsey to mid), Zusi for Bedoya, Jones/Torres for Johannsson/Beckerman for tactical adjustment
