TheNearPostThe shape is supposed to go from a sort of a 4-2-3-1 to the 4-4-2 diamond that we used against Slovenia. Donovan drifts inside, but he also drops into the midfield to receive the ball. Dempsey will do the same, but he'll actually have runners beyond him in Bradley and Donovan, as opposed to the Canada game where nobody was doing that and him dropping deep was killing the U.S.. Gomez is playing as a high right winger and a forward, moving occupying the opponents left center back and left back.
