1) Replace Jones with Stu Holden.
2) Johnson and Holden would give us width and crosses on offense
3) Fabian Johnson would be expected to overlap with Dempsey and basically play left back. He'd have to do a lot of running.
4) Cameron and Edu have played well together. Let's try them together in the back.
5) Danny Williams would play a Busquets-type role - fouling and stopping fast-breaks. Just not as brilliantly.
6) Bradley would drop behind the ball when it's in our own half.
