Wondo may not be a prototypical line leader, but against Canada where we should have plenty of possession I'd like to see what he can do with the inevitable chances that will fall his way. Zusi and Gatt are pretty automatic for me, would love to see Davis step up, and Mix has earned his chance. Big inclusion is Feilhaber, who has fallen precipitously but is not so far removed from providing some of our highest quality stuff in South Africa and who, at his best (which we haven't seen in a while), is the type of creative player Jurgi craves. GK is irrelevant, center halves certainly aren't. I'm about as anti-Boca as they come and desperately want a long-term replacement to slide in next to Cameron. OG is the obvious favorite in this camp, but I don't think Besler should be discounted either. Excited to see if they can elevate their game over the next month and impress Jurgen so I can be freed from my Boca-inflicted misery. And yeah, with only one defensive minded midfielder out there, the back 4 will certainly be tested (hopefully we score 5 though).
