US players I thought played well: Cherundolo, Pope, Reyna, Johnson
US players that seemed anonymous: Keller, Donovan, Beasley, McBride, Mastroeni, O'Brien
US players that hurt the team: Lewis, Onyewu, Convey
I'd give Onyewu another shot against the Italians - I think he can do a very good job shutting down Luca Toni. I'd put Bocanegra or Berhalter on the left - Eddie Lewis is not a left back. I'd also put in Clint Dempsey on the right and put Lewis or O'Brien in left mid, and I'd go with McBride and Johnson up front.
