US Fowards in World Cup

[wnyx_radio]

We all know McBride will start as one of the fowards? Who will be the other? I doubt Arena will play one up front.

Taylor Twellman (ok for the MLS, but not international material)
Josh Wolfe (same as Twellman)
Eddie Johnson (would start, but is healthy enough)
Giussepe Rossi (would get a look, but will probably play for Italy)

US is pretty sparse upfront. Maybe Landon Donovan could play off of McBride.

I like what Eddie Johnson brings to the table, with his SPEED, I hope he gets healthy fast, b/c he's missed so many friendlies, I think Twellman is good, but he's kinda small, the plus with him is his defense, you know what I'm talking about if you say the Norway friendly on Sunday. Wolfe and Rossi would be a huge decline. I hope Donovan dosen't play up-front, he's awsome as an attacking mid-fielder, where he can use his speed from the middle of the pitch, and attack teams full-speed, w/ the option to create for others or take it himself.

US' strong point is their defense though, they'll be in every game w/ a legit chance to win IMHO, so if they can just take a 1-0 lead in games, it's hard to score against them.
