TheNearPostWe don't have another Donovan. We need to utilize Bradley and Jones - get them around the opposition midfield and running at the defense. Whenever they do, they do good things. Bradley's goal against Russia, and Scotland. Jones' assist against Honduras, chances versus Russia? Michael has lovely technique and footwork, while Jones is a physical menace with vision and power.
Torres is key to this, though. He's excellent at linking play from that attacking midfield role. He just draws pressure towards himself and away from his own central midfielders, allowing them to sneak past and into the final third unchecked. That's how we got Michael and Jermaine combining on that fantastic second goal against Scotland.
