Is there anyone better than Beasley on the roster?

I'm not the biggest soccer fan in the world, so correct me if I'm wrong, but did he look pretty bad out there?

And do we have anyone maybe better than him behind him on the depth chart?

At left back, nope, unfortunately.

He's playing out of position, so can't be too harsh on him. Our best right back is playing at center half and our best left back is playing at right back.


DMB is better than Chandler, who would be the only possible person to use instead without shaking up the entire backline.

The guy playing on the right. However, in the next game, he has to stay at right back since he will be taking on the best player in the world.

Against Germany, perhaps we may see a change though.

Not really. Timothy Chandler has looked equally terrible in his few appearances. Other options were Michael Parkhurst (slower) or Edgar Castillo (can't defend).

Fabian Johnson is our best left back. He's also our best right back - which is a problem.

That's the only other line-up that could work with our roster.

Yedlin would be suicide. Omar has been really bad as well, and Chandler has terrible spacing.

I think ETA: Atsu (Darke overwhelmed me with the Adebi Pele references) would give pretty much anyone, including Fabian, on our roster some problems

There are very few players in the world who can abuse Beasley with quickness and speed

Ill rather stick with what we have. Johnson is very dangerous going forward on the right side.

It's what I would prefer, but we didn't practice it at all in the warm-ups.
