Dest makes strong case at left-back, while Aaronson, Acosta highlight USMNT's growing number of options

Such has been the progression of U.S. talent, both domestically and abroad over the last 18 months, that the question facing U.S. men's national team manager Gregg Berhalter isn't so much where players are going to come from, but rather where to put them. As we found out on Thursday, this is the case even as some of Berhalter's first-choice XI -- like Weston McKennie and Tyler Adams -- aren't available.

On Thursday, Berhalter got some more answers to that question in a 4-1 friendly win over Jamaica, one that was due in part to the performance of left-back Sergino Dest.
