Me: Can I say something crazy? What if we, you know, played our three best attackers in advanced positions so as to enhance our chances of scoring?
Klinsmann: Can I say something crazier? NO SHOT!
Analysis: I don't think we'll see this, but I think it makes perfect sense against Belgium. Pace in the front line to get at their four center backs, Gonzo rewarded for strong play against Germany, Cameron opposite Hazard (which is not a bad matchup), Bradley dropped where he can excel, and Jones really playing as more of an auxiliary third center mid than a wide midfielder. Let's be real, we're not attacking down the left anyway. Hope we see something at least close to this -- I'd be a happy man with one of these three options: ArJo up top, FJ at mid, or Yedlin at mid. Go, go, USA.
