It's sounding like Jones has fully recovered and is ready to go. This presents a little bit of a dilema for ol' Jurgen. Does he roll with the vet, our battle captain, Jermaine Jones, or does he stick with Cameron, who's coming off an outstanding game.

The other option could be to play both. Jones at CM and Cameron at RB. Where Cameron has, admittedly, been very hit or miss for the US.

I'm with you, etm512. I also think Cameron should supplant Evans at RB, he just seems to be the more viable option there. He struggled last time he started there, but was a stalwart in Jamaica. It's also where he spent most of his time at Stoke.

This is a tough choice. If the two are equally healthy then I say Jones still gets the nod.

I think Evans and Cameron are both hit or miss at RB but Cameron but be a more realistic long term option out there.

I don't see either as a long term option. Obviously for the present it's 'Dolo, but then I think Lichaj and Chandler need to get looks. IF that's even possible...

Yeah I think Jones at CB and Cameron at RB is the way to go. I appreciate what Evans has done for us but he has been the weakest of our backline since joining the lineup. I really dont want to see Castillo at LB though ...ugh.

I'd put a grand on Chandler or Cherundolo starting at RB the first game in Brasil. It's just unfortunate that neither of them wanted to take part in this round of WCQ.

Move Bradley to LB, start Cameron and Jones in the center.

PROBLEM SOLVED.

Agreed but Cameron is more "realistic" than Evans (although Evans has done a lot better than I thought he would). Cameron to me will provide depth at 3 positions next summer while hopefully Chandler steps up at RB and performs well.

Maybe its just me but Besler reminds me of Dolo a little bit. I'd like to see him as RB. I give credit to Jurgen for calling him up.

Just curious what everyone thinks about that line up. Honduras is without their #1 goal scorer and 2 center backs. Let's just score a shite ton of goals early, then slide Cameron to defense and put him or Evans at LB.

Please no. He's too good at CB. Just let him keep playing there.

Just throwing stuff against the wall to see what sticks. It would be the best way to get our best people on the field.

I dont think we could pull it off. Tactically.
