Armchair Analyst:
Who'd make up Klinsmann's "B" team?
[/B]
When Klinsmann announced – or hinted, at least – that he’d be bringing a “B” team of his own to next summer’s Gold Cup, I was happy about the news. I don’t particularly want to see another 5-0 (or even 4-2) loss.
With that in mind, let’s jump ahead seven months and try to figure out what Klinsmann’s “B” team will look like. First, though, a few caveats:
GK: Tim Howard, Brad Guzan will likely take us all the way through 2018
LB: Eric Lichaj, Justin Morrow
CD: Matt Besler, Omar Gonzalez
RB: Chance Myers, Steven Beitashour
DM: Dax McCarty, Perry Kitchen
RM: Nick DeLeon, Josh Gatt
CM: Benny Feilhaber, Michael Farfan
LM: Chris Pontius, Dilly Duka
Support Striker: Darlington Nagbe, Luis Silva
Center Forward: Will Bruin, C.J. Sapong
Freddy Adu is a wild card here. He’d be a vastly different look, but as EJ just showed us, you can’t write off anyone who’s got a unique skill set
