    Donovan and Dempsey play inside not outside. The fullbacks have to do wing duty. Let's see how effective Dolo and Boca are tonight.

    I'm gonna say Dolo will be good to great and Boca will be bad to mediocre

    I think it was a joke, as this is the roster thread and the last 25 posts were all about Edu, Bradley, and Jones. ;)

    (at least I hope it was, otherwise this post will look stupid)

    After all this talk, Bradley will pull a fast one and start Kljestan and Spector at CM against Canada.

    I know this is a joke, but I doubt Sacha starts. He was one of few players who went 90 on Saturday. I took that as a sign he's not seeing any minutes vs. Canada.

    I know I'm in the minority, but I liked what I saw from Sacha. I think he's really grown as a player in Belgium. Most notably, after the two big gaffes he had in the first half, Sacha recovered. "Old Sacha" would've let those mistakes get to him and he would've finished the day poor. I thought he improved even as the half went along, and played reasonably well in the second half.

    technically they are outside mids but seldom end up there. You are correct in the sense they both will cut in and do their work in the inside.

    Not sure if anyone posted this but U.S. Soccer twitter says that Donovan is healthy and ready for selection for tonight. I assumed as much but just wanted to confirm in case anyone was worried he was still sick.

    Thread closed for length. Plus we have plenty of roster discussion going on already in other threads now that the tourney has started.
