syntax - role of infinitive


I want to ask a question to you about the sentence:



I want you to go there.



I can't separate the sentence into its parts. Could you please tell me which one is correct?




  1. "You to go there" is a direct object of the sentence.





  2. "You" is an indirect object and "to go there" is a direct object.




  3. "You" is an indirect object and "to go there" is a purposal adverb.




The question may be easy for you, but I want to learn grammar very well.
