The vibes are… complicated. After a sobering 5-2 loss to Belgium, Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola regroup to unpack what went wrong, starting with a sharper reassessment of Johnny Cardoso’s first half and what it means for his role moving forward. The guys also take a closer look at Matt Turner and dig into what Mauricio Pochettino may (and may not) have learned from a night where intensity was a major question.
From there, the focus shifts to Christian Pulisic, who reaches the 10-year mark with the United States men's national soccer team. But it’s not just a celebration as the crew weighs his current goal drought with the national team.
Then it’s on to the final dress rehearsal. The USMNT faces Portugal national football team, a side missing stars like Cristiano Ronaldo and Rafael Leão, but still loaded with quality. The crew dives into Roberto Martínez’s setup and talks through what Pochettino’s projected XI could look like with roster decisions looming.
One last test. Big calls ahead.
