At long last, we get a chance to avenge StuBear (Who will be calling the game ironically)

Going to be intriguing to me who is in the XI.

Gregg talked about how much the boys should improve with more time together this year, which tells me he has his core group basically picked out. Does he go with another strong lineup or play all the guys that either didn’t play or were subbed on against Jamaica?

I expect Dike and Reynolds to get some time. Those are two that could factor in come qualifying.

Then continue to foster the Pulisic / Dest partnership on the left.

Then my wish list, get a better look at Richards, and at Aaronson and De La Torre in midfield.

Looks like a 3 man back line with Dest and Robinson as wingbacks? Not sure why the formation tinkering if that’s the case.

I know Dest plays wingback, but beyond that I’d rather see some other players as opposed to new formations..

Not a bad idea to have 2 formations. Also lets Dest and Robinson do what they do best, get forward.

True. At least Pulisic doesn’t have to play wing back with USA

Hope Dike gets at least 30 minutes. Upset he’s not starting.

We also seem to have a lot of players that are combo wingers/attacking mids (Aaronson, Reyna, Pulisic, etc). Gives them a lot of freedom to drift inside/outside as they see fit.

It he wasn't healthy enough to play a few days ago, they probably wouldn't want him starting today.

To be fair it’s not like Dest wasn’t getting forward in a back 4. He still clearly had freedom to do so. This basically just takes a CM off for a CB. So instead of the 6 sitting deep in between the 2 CBs when building out from the back it will be Ream

Not that it matters, because we already knew Musah was committed to us, but I had no idea this 4-cap rule existed.

Re: Musah being officially tied to #usmnt, FIFA rules now state that a player under 21 can play up to three matches at A level (friendlies or official competition) and still switch. Once said player plays in a fourth match, they are officially cap tied.

That's one of those moments that keeps Miazga out of the starting XI.
