USA friendly roster and line-up hopes

Here are the initial 33 players that will be used for the 3 upcoming USA friendlies against England, Argentina, and Spain:


G:
Dominic Cervi - no team
Brad Guzan - Chivas USA
Tim Howard - Everton
Troy Perkins - Valerenga
Chris Seitz - Real Salt Lake
D:
Carlos Bocanegra - Fulham
Dan Califf - Midtjylland
Steve Cherundolo - Hannover
Jay DeMerit - Watford
Frankie Hejduk - Columbus Crew
Oguchi Onyewu - Standard de Liege
Michael Orozco - San Luis
Heath Pearce - Hansa Rostock
Jonathan Spector - West Ham
M:
Freddy Adu - Benfica
DaMarcus Beasley - Glasgow Rangers
Michael Bradley - Heerenveen
Ricardo Clark - Houston Dynamo
Maurice Edu - Toronto
Benny Feilhaber - Derby County
Eddie Gaven - Columbus Crew
Sacha Kljestan - Chivas USA
Eddie Lewis - Derby County
Pablo Mastroeni - Colorado Rapids
F:
Jozy Altidore - New York Red Bulls
Brian Ching - Houston Dynamo
Kenny Cooper - Dallas
Clint Dempsey - Fulham
Landon Donovan - Los Angeles Galaxy
Nate Jaqua - Rheindorf Altach
Eddie Johnson - Fulham
Robbie Rogers - Columbus Crew
Josh Wolff - 1860 Munich

Here is who I'd like to see starting against England:

           Jozy Altidore

Landon Donovan   Freddy Adu Clint Dempsey

Maurice Edu    Michael Bradley

Eddie Lewis Steve Churundalo
Oguchi Onyewu  Carlos Bocanegra
Tim Howard

And really Pablo Mastoeni could be in there instead of either Edu or Bradley, and the attacking midfielders could be in any formation, just so long as we've got 3 guys in the middle. And for God sakes, will a left sided player please step up so I don't have to keep typing Eddie Lewis's name into line-ups.
