  • How will the USMNT cover for Sergiño Dest's absence at right back?
    May 29 2024

    We are just over three weeks away from the USMNT’s opening match against Bolivia in the Copa America. And one of the biggest questions U.S. fans still have is: Who’s going to replace Sergiño Dest at right back?

    The U.S. still has a full training camp to figure that out including two friendlies against Colombia and Brazil. Gregg Berhalter recently announced which 27 players will be participating in that camp and in his press conference afterwards, he provided a few clues about the options he’s considering to fill-in for the injured Dest. On today’s show, we’re going to dig into each of those options.

    To help me do that, I’ve invited Seth Vertelney to join the show. Seth is the Managing Editor at Pro Soccer Wire. You can follow Seth on X at: @svertelney

  • End of season awards: Americans in Europe
    May 22 2024

    Most of the European leagues have ended their seasons or will be ending them soon. And on today’s show, we are going to look back on the European season and discuss which Americans had the most notable performances abroad. We'll discuss our American MVP, most disappointing player, and who surprised us.

    To help me do that, I’ve invited Greg O'Keeffe to join the show. Greg is a senior writer for The Athletic covering US soccer players in the UK & Europe. Previously he spent a decade at the Liverpool Echo covering news and features before an eight-year stint as the paper's Everton correspondent. He has also worked as a news and sport journalist for the BBC and hosts a podcast in his spare time. You can follow Greg on X at: @GregOK

  • Americans in the Belgian Pro League
    May 15 2024

    On today’s show, we are going to discuss Americans playing in the Belgian Pro League. From my research, I counted seven Americans that currently play in the league with the most well known being USMNT center back Mark McKenzie at Genk.

    To help me today, I’ve invited Joris Becq to join the show. Joris is one of the hosts of The Belgian Football Podcast. You can follow Joris on X at: @Joris_Becq
