Tried to get the best players (talent & form) on the field in a lineup that will have to rely on outgunning GUA (no lead is safe right now). Started with Howard, Bradley, and Dempsey (duh). Then the big drop-off. Dolo, Zusi, and Cameron next; solid is the clear choice when better ain't an option. Johnson over Gomez for form (he gets on a roll like nobody's business!). Williams over Beckerman in close call. (Edu = foul magnet). Boca's experience matches up best with Ruiz' guile, so he gets the nod over Goodson. That makes Parkhurst the choice at LB. Kljestan best of limited options.
