Ellis isn't going to depart from the 4-4-2, and we have no natural defensive midfielders who can go 90 anyway. If she wants to pump in crosses and get wide, actually put a winger in (O'Reilly) and for the love of God play Press in her natural position up top. I like Klingenberg, but I still think O'Hara is a better two-way player. Abby Wambach should be nothing but a sub at this point, and no one will be wanting to see her coming off the bench with fresh legs in the 70th minute.
