Would US have tied or beaten Germany with Donovan? [View all]

US midfield play was non-existent save for Bradley's hustle and clever long balls, but essentially Germany thoroughly dominated play and US relied on counterattack for any scoring chances (very few).

My opinion is that it is highly questionable leaving Donovan off the team; he does respond in big games and is still probably US's best player. My conspiracy theory is that the decision was personal on Klinsmann's part, and my ultra-conspiracy theory is that Klinsmann left Donovan off the team to insure Germany's advancing. Any thoughts?
