    It looks like Cherundolo won't be ready for next week's match. Who plays Right Back in his place? I say Wynne is ready for a shot. It can't be Hejduk again, can it?

    Will M. Bradley and Kljestan both play in the middle? I can't imagine coach Bradley not playing either Edu or Clark as a defensive central midfielder, but how do you keep Kljestan off the field? He's earned a spot. Will M. Bradley sit?

    What role will Donovan play? Midfield or Forward? What about Adu? Sub? Will Altidore stay in Spain now that he's on loan to a 2nd Division team?

    How do you line them up next week?

    OK, I'll go first. Bradley is going to surprise the Mexicans and come out in a Christmas Tree lineup.

    -------------Howard------------
    Wynne--Gooch--Boca--Pearce
    --Kljestan-----Bradley-----Torres--
    --------Donovan-----Adu------
    --------------Altidore---------------

    We can dream, can't we? I know, we'll probably have 3 DM and 1 forward, but this would be better.

    --------------Howard-------------

    Hejduk ----Gooch------Boca------------Pearce

    Dempsey ----Bradley------Klejstan--------Beasley

    --------Donovan
    ------------------------Ching

    I would love to see Altidore in place of Ching. Wynne in place of Hejduk. And just about anyone in place of Beasley. Bradley Sr. is a creature of habit and would be really surprised to see anything other than what I've surmised.

    Can't wait to see the game. Look for the [​IMG] stuff. It'll be well-represented.

    here is the latest rumored lineup for Mexico
    sanchez
    osorio, galindo, marquez, salcido
    dos santos, pardo, augusto, medina
    castillo, ochoa

    Not having guradado or vela will hurt, but dos santos and castillo will more than make up for it on speed and ball skills.

    They are expecting a lot of wind and rain, so I see this game as a toss up.

    Why is Sanchez the starting goalie? I thought that mop-headed kid basically beat him out about 2 years ago.

    PS- My Prediction: Mexico will play like dirty *******.

    You're really going out on a limb there, Nap. [​IMG]

    'Cuse-

    I don't like to be wrong. So I usually only make predictions when I am at least 99% certain.

    Man the Nats are really really tough to watch. It is like Rick's team on offense this year. Love the result though.
