I prefer this formation to a 4-2-3-1 as it is more attack minded and I like that approach for the first game of the Hex.
Right back is a huge question, I would prefer Chandler, and Jurgy has a LOT of confidence in the German contingent on this team, but I think he will go with Castillo simply because he has done so before in Cherundolo's absence and has more experience playing with this back line.
Kljestan was solid in the CL, so I think he deserves to start in central midfield, possibly dropping back with Bradley in a distributive role if possession is 50/50.
Everything else is an obvious best option.
