Zusi is a nice stop gap, but he has no business being a first choice starter.
Nothing against SKC, I think Besler is the best defender we have right now. Just don't think Zusi is good enough.
I'd put Bedoya, Corona, and Donovan all ahead of him.

We just need 4 points to lock up a spot. It's going to be sweet if we do it against Mexico.

I think Zusi has been very good for the US lately and I am happy to have him on the roster.
I was gonna be happy as long as I got my Bacon, so

Seeing Jozy and lil Bacon up front could be something to see.

This roster has me pumped. Can't wait to be at Finns for the games.

quote:nope. FJ at LB, Donovan/Dempsey on the left, in the hole, Zusi on the right. His service to Jozy has been nothing short of spot on in the latest round of WCQ's, and Zusi will track back and put in more defensive work than anyone else in the front 4.
So we all agree that Donovan should start on the right wing over Zusi, right?
guys who are dogcussing Chandler for not being here, its because JK simply thinks he doesnt belong right now, not because Timmy chandler doesnt wanna be here.

Zusi is slightly above average at everything, but not really great at anything, except maybe free kicks.

Edu is finally gone forever
I foresee 6 points. Bacon to score v Mex.

He has made 3 good crosses and one good tackle, though, so lets sit Landon.

I think Zusi is probably tops in our player pool for providing service into the box from the right side.
I think he has a high defensive work rate for an attacking guy.
I don't think he's our number 1 option, but I do think he's probably our second best option. Corona or Bedoya may overtake him eventually though, as they have higher upsides.

If Zusi were to start, it have to be on the right and move Donovan to either ST, CAM, or LW/LM. Zusi just doesn't play well on the left.

Alright, I'm going to start it. Guzan should start the first match. He's in form.
Posted on 8/29/13 at 9:23 pm to pvilleguru
I wouldn't have a problem with Howard or Guzan starting. Guzan is probably in better form for club at the moment but benching Howard might cause some ripples you don't want considering the run the national team is on. Not to mention guzan hasn't had a clean sheet in over a year

JK has said time and time again that the starting GK is Timmy's and its by a wide margin.
And yeah uway, take your smartass comment elsewhere because I never advocated benching Landon.

i like this lineup because it allows Zusi to send crosses in the box, Landy can hang around in the middle and make some runs, putting Dempsey on the left allows Johnson to push up since dempsey likes to push in. Besler has the speed to cover for johnson occassionly and Brooks is one of our most talented players

No offense, but that lineup would be a disaster.
