Bring Bocanegra back into the center of defense, his experience and leadership is much more effective centrally next to Cameron. Even though Parkhsurt is not my first choice, i think he may be the only choice on the left. Bradley, Dempsey, and Zusi as the "attacking mids" provide a much more dangerous threat. EJ up top...he's definietly earned it. You could also put EJ out wide and let Dempsey be a flaoting forward. Depending on the situation, my subs for a defensive change would be pull Zusi and have EJ play in that roll, then have Klejstan come on and play defensive mid next to Williams. If we need to go more offensively, push Dempsey up to a #10 role (floating attacker) and put Klejstan out wide.
