Musah is starting and on the bench according to that update. US Soccer is trying extra hard to get him to commit.

Seriously though, we going false 9?

I would think Musah comes on around the 70'

Like I said Musah will come on 70' before kick off

It’s crazy how attack oriented that lineup is.

Gregg is really trusting Adams to put out a lot of fires

Is Weah a bum now? Haven’t heard anything of him since he left PSG

Gotta think with Robinson and Dest going forward, I would assume, Wes will drop back and help adams a lot right?

I like the players in theory, but not sold on that formation. Has Lletget ever played there? I always though he was more of a central midfielder.

Would much have rather Weah start on the wing and have Reyna play inside if we wanted to run this.

Who’s spot did Musah take in starting 11?

yeah, I'm not sure why in this lineup you don't switch Musah and Llegtet and play Gio at the false 9

Likely to keep as many players as possible in their long term position.

Both Musah and McKennie will be box to box and expected to do plenty of defensive work.

I expect the front 3 to be pretty fluid.

Sure but assuming we’re keeping that 3-2-5 on the attack, Adams is going to have be a huge fire extinguisher on the Welsh counters, which they love to do.

Another "expert" has Lleget in mid field with Musah up top at a false 9. I am guessing there will be a Lot of variation going forward. I wouldn't be surprised if they fall back into a 4-5-1 in defense.

Let's fricking go!!!!!

ETA: US Soccer twitter had Musah on the bench to start. FS1 has him as a starter .... we'll see which one it is. Would be a recruiting mistake to put the guy on the bench unless he was horrendous in training.

ETA2: Nvm ... twitter has been corrected. Musah is a go to start! LFG!
