Looking back at the Scotland game, Torres played a pretty nice role in that victory. From the left flank he drifted all the way across the pitch, sometimes to the opposite side, creating overloads in different areas and allowing the U.S to play aroun...

I prefer Smalling with Vidic as first choice, Ferdinand with Jones 2nd. Evans.....will always let you down eventually so I ignored him.de Gea should be our number 1. His reflexes are 2nd to none, he has a cool head, its just his ariel work that i...

Look familiar? It's a lot like the previous 4-2-3-1ish shape I posted, but slight tweaks to make it into a 4-4-2 diamond/ 4-3-1-2. We saw this shape against Slovenia and I think that was our most impressive offensi...

I can definitely see Juergen using this shape, and I think we could definitely take this to Antigua & Barbuda and walk away with three points. It's pretty well balanced. Gomez has had success on the right flank for his club team in Mexico, an...

I like this better actually because it suits the midfield trio. Bradley loves to get forward. Torres is a lot more willing to sit back and help dictate the pace of the game. Moreover, he's got a destroyer behind him that can help him on defense a...

subs: A. Lindergaard, P. Jones/Smailing, Rafeal/buttner, R. Tunniclife/Kovacic, I. Muinain/Powell, D. Welbeck/A. Young, J. Hernandez/W. KeaneWill make another formation mid-season to see if I have a change in opinion.

I'd like to see it given a shot at the least. Bradley and Torres may switch though, seeing as how Torres doesn't ever like to get forward...

I was reading the Tactical Terrier's piece on how he would go about stopping the False 9, and he had a great idea that i haven't thought of!If you remember, Messi had his toughest games when he was being man-marked by Pepe, like in the ...

This is similar to the last shape but now Adu is in the forward line. I think this gives the USA more variability and unpredictability in the final third. Dempsey can push further forward in the the forward line and Adu can release him, or vice-v...

Better defined here. Donovan and Bradley are still central midfielders, but Donovan will be a bit more willing to move towards the wing, while Bradley won't mind dropping deep and receiving the ball. Gomez and Altidore will move to the flanks as ...

This please. I feel like this gets our best players on the pitch. Donovan and Bradley have the best passing of any of our players and I think are best suited to dictate the overall pace and play of the U.S. game.
