Dempsey is the best striker we have, but needs creative players surrounding him.
All 3 attacking mids have that spark and moments of brilliance. Bedoya and Nagbe also do the defensive work.
Cameron will help as a sweeper, but he also like to drive forward. Bradley is good ad seeing the long ball, and with a solid defensive pairing will do well.
The back 4 are the real issue. Pus Yedlin in his natural RB. I think there are better options at LB that haven't been called up. CBs have hurt us in all major games recently. Not sure what the best pairing is here. I think Birnbaum deserves a good look.
I am fine with either Guzan or Bingham, but until Howard gets his game back he should sit.
