Interested in the lineup. Really want to see a lot of these guys, but also want to see what our as-close-to-normal-as-possible starting XI would do against the fighting Xherdan Shaqiris.



Yeah, but I also want to see some of the guys that will be leaving after this match... Doubt we see Che and Hoppe because this is more like a introductory to camp for them, but I hope we see Green get a start, or at least something other than a 10 minute cameo.

Also very interested to see what the CB pairing will be today.

Kind of hope it's Miazga and McKenzie, just to give Brooks a break and to see which one of them looks good enough to be Brooks' partner for the nations league.

Gonna be a test with both Xhaka and Shaqiri in the XI.

Surprised that Yueill is starting, is Acosta not on this roster? Regardless I’m excited to watch the boys play some quality competition

Clearly not the strongest midfield

But it will be interesting with 4-3-3 and the CM playing as the advance role

Jackson about to get beat up for his lunch money

He wouldn’t.

Yueill is running into a buzzsaw. We may lose this 2-1 or 3-1. That’s not considering potential subs.

Going to be interesting how McKennie and Lleget play in front of Yueill. I HATE that midfield.

I think Acosta is a little better than Jackson, but I agree there’s not a huge difference between the two

Weird that Musah is on the bench.

Need his speed considering Yueill is a statue and McKennie and Lletget aren't particularly fast.

I don’t think it’s weird. He’s testing a few guys with this midfield. Namely Yueill.

ESPN never gets the lineup right.

It's Yueill as the 6 with McKennie/Lletget as shuttling 8's.

There’s going to be a fricking chasm between our midfield and top 3 in this match until we make subs.

I think Lletget is proficient enough to get the ball to the forwards, but he's not gonna do well if it turns into a track meet.

McKennie is going to be pinned back in my opinion after about 10-15 mins. Basically will render any effectiveness Lleget could have null and void.

I’m up for a pleasant surprise, though!
