Wouldn't it be better if Bradley stuck with the same lineup?

Question

Granted, I'm a bit of a newb when it comes to "the beautiful game" ,but isn't team chemistry just as important in these matches as skill. Players just being familiar with each other and knowing what style they posses would appear to me as giving a team an important edge. But then again, i don't know so i humbly offer my question to others.

Answer 1

You have to look at the big picture.  Everything is geared toward building a team for World Cup 2010.  That's still 2 years away, so in the early stages you want to take a look at a lot of players, and see who can play and who can't.  As the World Cup draws near, certainly you want to narrow your roster, and standardize your line-up.  As World Cup qualifiers begin, we're sure to see that happen (at least I certainly hope so).
