Goal.com’s Noah Davis previews the U.S.A.’s showdown with Honduras in Chicago.
In the past, Bradley has made few changes to the Starting XI between games on double fixture dates. Expect that trend to change on Saturday, as the American manager needs to drastically alter the 4-3-3 that struggled in San Jose. For one, the younger Bradley needs to be replaced. Additionally, both Marvell Wynne and DaMarcus Beasley failed miserably on the flanks against Costa Rica and will see their positions filled by Jonathan Spector and Jonathan Bornstein, respectively. Up top, while Jozy Altidore is virtually a lock to get his third straight qualifying start, but the second striker slot remains up for grabs. With Brian Ching out, I see Bradley turning to Charlie Davies who played well in his 10 minutes on Wednesday. Other options include Major League Soccer player of the month Conor Casey, who was called in on Friday, or Donovan, who could be moved higher up the pitch while Beasley slides into the vacated left midfield spot.
