Future of team USA

Haven't followed soccer much before this years world cup, but I intend to change that. By observing the other teams and comparing them to team USA it seems we are not that far off. Correct me if I'm wrong but it would seem a couple more talented players and we could make a run next time around.

I've been guilty of really just following Serie A, EPL and more recently Bundesliga and pretty much ignoring MLS but intend to change that as well.
As far as the USA's future, I think we're still a long way away from having the quality all over the pitch + depth to be a real threat to take out 2-3 great sides consecutively but we're at least a serious contender against anyone which is already amazing progress for US soccer.
However, I think that this year's CUP was extremely open. In 2014, I expect that sides like Italy, England, Germany, Brazil ect will be stronger in addition to there being no fall off among the better sides and so, for me, I see this Cup as a real lost chance to take advantage of draw that may be the easiest we'll ever see.

We had a relatively young team this World Cup and most of our best players should be back for 2014. Our player development should improve over the next four years and we should have some more confident central defenders.

I've got a four part piece position by position break down. Two have already been done. I'll post all four. It's pretty in depth. Like super long.
