Online posting would be a legitimate profession for a Mexican.

Yikes.

Are we really going to be starting two of Beltran, Bessler and Morrow? Any chance Beasley gets a look at left back?

Well yeah. I'm not super excited about the alternative of some MLS guys with no meaningful caps between them, but they have shown some potential and need to step up sometime. I guess in theory it should be good enough to hold off Costa Rica at home, and the Azteca is probably a lost cause anyway.

Both are on ESPN. ESPN has all US home WCQ, and I believe all home and road Mexico games. This game would be on beIN if we were playing anyone other than Mexico, I believe.

Also wow I didn't realize how many injuries we have. Any idea of a XI/formation?

I love Tim Howard, but I think Guzan is a very excellent 2nd Goalie. He was astoundingly awesome in the QPR v AV match this past weekend, so many top notch saves.

What was the last time we went into a WC qualifier with 2/3rds of the defenders from MLS?

I'm not sure about the backline, but I think we'll probably see something like:

-----------Gomez---------Altidore----------
E. Johnson----Bradley---Jones----Dempsey

Or maybe a 4-2-3-1 with Dempsey behind the striker and someone else on the wing.

Found that about Tim Howard. Supposed to be a ~2 month injury. So we get a taste of Guzan for some of these qualifiers.

Your front 6 look reasonable to me, that is more or less my guess too.
