Jose Torres Is A Left Winger, USMNT Is Playing 4-2-3-1

The United States has been playing a in a 4-3-3 formation with Jose Torres -- usually a central midfielder -- on the left wing in the absence of Clint Dempsey. Dempsey is back in the lineup and Maurice Edu was dropped, not Torres. Some believed that Torres would return to midfield, but he’s still on the left wing. Dempsey is playing as an attacking central midfielder behind striker Herculez Gomez in a 4-2-3-1 formation. This was their normal formation under Jurgen Klinsmann before the last two matches.
