Aron is America's best forward
Johannsson is just another guy
This World Cup is his coming out party
He won't get a chance to shine
I am definitly better that Jozy right now. Besides Wondo I'm probably our best forward right now. You can expect me to score a hat trick against Germany.

We will stick with the Jozy Altidore even through his slump

I don't see JK risking a start on ArJo, even though he and Boyd could bring more spark than old-timers Jozy and Clint.

He'll only come on late in 2 games.

I think he'll be the first forward off the bench. With his pace and nose for goal he will provide the perfect spark for the USA attack.

obv jozy is the starter but i see aron bagging the most goals of the forwards if given a chance. He MUST be in the starting 11.

Hard to see him getting a look, but I think he's a good player.

If Jozy struggles, Aron will gte his chance to shine. other than that I expect him to be a super-sub.

Aron Johannsson won't get the time to shine because he is a second striker like Wayne Rooney. I don't think JK will slot him in Dempsey's role ever in the tournament. Injury concerns will be the only way he sees the pitch.
