I think Kljestan is a better option at this point to partner with Bradley and Williams. He's disciplined enough to drop deep and defend when necessary. Everyone talked about Jermaine Jones as this midfield destroyer in the mold of Essien or Makelele, but he doesn't really add much at all defensively. In fact his penchant for long runs up the pitch coupled with his horrible giveaways, kill us defensively.

We're better when Michael Bradley goes forward.

I think Jones has a "Imma do whatever the frick I want" attitude with the USMNT. I think we would be best suited with Williams (dedicated defender) Bradley (hard working, box to box) and then someone who can provide some creativity, whether thats Kljestan, Diskerud, me, Ben Lederman, I don't know.
