The MLS playoffs will impact the starting lineups. Normal starters may not be available (Dempsey, Jones, & Yedlin).
Garza has turned in 2 impressive performances at L FB. Should be a lock at LB as his form holds. Brooks has worked his way back onto the 1st team in Germany. Cameron has been solid in the EPL and Johnson has done the same in Germany.
Green will be given every opportunity to flash his potential out on the L Wing. Fabian Johnson is a lock @ R Wing until Gyau rehabs from injury. Bradley & Diskerud look to be locks in the 2018 WC midfield unless there is a loss of form. With Dempsey away for the MLS playoffs I would love to see Edu in the defensive midfield role for Columbia. Thought that he had a solid season in Philadelphia and has worked his way back in for a good look while some of the mainstays continue their playoff run. Bedoya continues to be a Klinsmann favorite with his work rate crossing ability.
Guzan has done everything to deserve being the new USMNT #1 in the goal.
