Ah think if we go 4-4-2 against the USA with the 3 strikers we have available.....we will be picked apart in midfield, our midfielders won't have much service to offer our 2 strikers, and we'll have 2 passengers up front occupying nobody while the midfield is overrun and the defence under constant pressure.
Maybe Keon Daniel is not the answer....but I cyah see 2 strikers being the solution to start the game away to the USA.
I agree, 4-5-1 is a must, our main objective here is not to concede just like the plan vs. Sweden and England. After what happen in Chicago I would like to see Pacheco start on the left wing cause he'll be much more solid defensively than Daniel and Aklie could use the help even though he has improved. Noel or Leon parked in front the back 4 with Birchall and Hyland running all over the dam field. Scotland on his own up front like he does for Swansea to try and conjure something out of nothing to steal the 3 points.
--------------Ince-----------------
Wolfe---Lawrence---Thomas---Aklie
-----------Birchall---Noel---------
Edwards------Hyland-------Pacheco
-------------Scotland--------------
Subs if we fall behind: Latas for Hyland, Stern for Scotland and if we get desperate KJ for Birchall or Noel and switch to 4-4-2
