This is the XI that started in the 4-3 win over Germany. But that's not the only reason I want to see them start vs Jamaica.
The main thing is that I like the shape you get with this XI. FJ provides some potential penetration down the left, Zusi some quality service from the right. MB90 and JJ look like an all-action partnership, and don't need a #6 like Williams or Beckerman clogging up midfield. Plus they provide a solid base from which Dempsey can stay pretty high and get nice and close to Josemer.
I like Evans at right back because he's smart and adaptable and will potentially add an extra attacking dynamic down the right, which could be necessary if Jamaica sit deep. Ditto DMB on the left.
