Where have you gone Steve Cherundolo? Not since the former Hannover 96 defender retired has there been a consistent and natural U.S. national team right back with strong defensive qualities who could also contribute to the attack.

Bruce Arena has wasted no time making his concerns known about the right back position, with his Graham Zusi experiment being one of the storylines of the January camp.
