Johnson and Yedlin have shown what an effect they can have on matches with their pace and bombing runs down the sidelines, leading to eventual centering passes to awaiting goal scorers. Time to take these two "defenders'" leashes off and attack, attack, attack down both of the flanks (as it has mostly been from the right side so far). Beasley provides great support and options for Fab to support him as well, and Cameron moves to his club spot, at Right Back. Omar showed well enough last match to get another start at CB. In all, we get 7 defenders (counting Fab and Yedlin) on the pitch, which will be needed against an offensive team like Belgium (especially players like Lukaku, Hazard, and Mertens to name a few), and more freedom is provided to Jones and Bradley to make things happen offensively on Belgium's side of the pitch. Jozy, if healthy, can come in as a super-sub, if needed.
