I sort of disagree. Of course, I have zero faith that Jurgen can (or will) harness what he can bring to a game.
DaMarcus Beasley and pre-2007ish Landon Donovan had pretty damn good careers for both club and country by primarily running past or around people. Landon developed other skills, Beasley didn't (probably due to injury.)
But they still did a lot just by being able to run past people. That ability has its place in the game.

Don't get me wrong, I love his speed and his ability to beat a man off the dribble. I just think he tried to do a little too much at times last night (but I can look past that as he was actually trying to make something happen out there instead of passing back). Whether that was all him or who he was playing with (like I said I dont think Morrow overlapped him once) or a little of both is what I'm not sure of.
