A mix of what I want to see and what I think we'll see. Klinsmann's certainties: Beckerman as a #6, staying at home in front of the back four. Donovan on the right. All GKs will likely see time, but I think he goes with the vet Rimando to start. Holden in Bradley's box-to-box role. Gooch and Goodson are the only two centerbacks on this roster. After that, who knows? Doubt we'll see two young strikers up top, so Herc is probably there for veteran presence. (And this roster completely lacks a big target-type forward.) Corona will eventually play in the middle, but he'll likely get a run out on the wing, unless Beasley goes back to his natural position. A solid lineup.
