Description

With the USMNT reportedly poised to play friendlies against Colombia and Brazil in June, Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies and Jesse Marsch discuss the possibility of facing a potential Copa America opponent right before the tournament starts, and whether Gregg Berhalter’s system contains enough flexibility to pose either side a problem. (04:59)
Meanwhile, Charlie isn’t overly optimistic about the U-23 U.S. men’s national team’s chances ahead of their Olympic Games warm-up match against hosts and early favorites France. (15:25)
Then, the guys react to Duncan McGuire returning stateside after his move to Blackburn Rovers collapsed due to a clerical error. Is another season at Orlando City a blessing in disguise for the 23-year-old? (23:35)
There were goals galore for the Americans Abroad over the weekend. Jimmy and Charlie spotlight two players who got on the scoresheet - Taylor Booth and Johnny Cardoso - while Jesse waxes lyrical over defensive stalwarts Tim Ream and Antonee Robinson. (32:27)
On the domestic front, the guys preview the 2024 MLS season and pick out their three Americans to watch in the context of the national team. (42:45)
And with whispers that IFAB is looking to introduce sin bins to the game, the guys weigh in on the controversial blue card idea. (59:05)
