The United States Women’s National Team have an important week to navigate as we preview the SheBelieves Cup on Episode 131.
The USWNT have a difficult 2 matches coming up, as we discuss the change to the SheBelieves Cup format and how the team will need to approach it. While they bring in a really good squad, with some new additions and some returning veterans, the competition for Olympic spots is going to be seriously tight over the next few months, as a national team roster’s worth of players was left off the squad. And, they have to come together and beat Japan and either Canada or Brazil to win the trophy.
After the break, it’s time to discuss Korbin Albert’s controversial social media over the last week. It’s clear that the team will have to address it this week as they prepare for SheBelieves Cup, and we discuss the implications of her unacceptable social media posts along with her liking a post that joked about Megan Rapinoe’s injury. The team that is normally unified has to rebuild that unity as they enter this international window.

We analyze the roster and get some of Emma Hayes’ thinking behind the call-ins and how she plans to utilize some of the players against another quality set of opponents. While certain players are out, others get a prime opportunity to show that they can be ready when called upon to produce. We break down several positions and players and hear from Emma herself on some of her thoughts on key players as well as the recent move of a few American players to European leagues. After the break, the USMNT U-17s went down to World Cup qualifying in Costa Rica and hung 22 goals on the U.S. Virgin Islands!

बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदWe’re back with Episode 149, where we break down Major League Soccer’s participation in the various club competitions this season. MLS will send teams to the Concacaf Champions Cup, the U.S. Open Cup, Leagues Cup, the Canadian Championship, and the FIFA Club World Cup this season. But, in a new set of qualification criteria, teams (with the exception of the Seattle Sounders and Inter Miami, due to their participation in the Club World Cup) will take part in at least one, but not more than two, cup competitions in 2025 and 2026. We first start by examining that criteria as well as detailing which teams will play in each of those competitions. After the break, we continue our discussion by analyzing how MLS is going about its participation in the various cup competitions. The increased focus on Leagues Cup - despite teams balking at its format and how it disrupts the season - continues to be something that is rightfully scrutinized, and this episode is no exception. But, we don’t just come to the table with the negatives. There’s a format that would reduce the importance of the Leagues Cup but also improve schedule congestion and perhaps fan excitement in the competition...and we look to college basketball for that idea.

The USMNT had two wins last week over Venezuela and Costa Rica to give this January Camp fun vibes.

We recap what we saw from that camp and how it could affect some of the players moving forward as we dive into the year. After the break, Naomi Girma is officially on the move to Chelsea in a world record transfer. But what does it mean for the NWSL that she leaves behind? We discuss how it’s important for Girma, important for Chelsea, and important for the NWSL, but that it shouldn’t signify a mass exodus of players to teams across the pond.

बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदThe United States Women’s National Team are having a combined training camp to start the year, but on Episode 147, we discuss how head coach Emma Hayes is changing the approach. January Camp is normally a camp where the USWNT comes together for the first time in the new year to play a couple of friendlies and begin their preparations for a loaded schedule. However, Emma Hayes has softened the approach to January Camp, bringing in 49 players across two rosters: the USWNT training roster and a Futures Camp of U-23s designed to give them a chance to get involved and make an impression. There are no matches this time, and as we discuss, Hayes has decided that January Camps will remain an opportunity to develop talent and organize the overall strategy for the year. We get into the WNT roster as well as the Futures roster and how it’s a big year for some positions as some veterans are not present for various reasons. Overall, Emma Hayes wants to create more opportunities for the younger players, but first she wants to get them into this camp to get to know them and begin to implement her methodology that sets the program up for future success.

We take you through the roster of players and note how one of them has a wild path to the national team. There are some players who have a great opportunity to show they can be counted on as depth pieces as the race to 2026 hits full stride. After the break, we get into a little bit of the calendar for the USMNT and what awaits them in 2025. There are some potentials for big time friendlies, but Concacaf competitions will dominate the first half of the year as the USMNT seek to hold onto the Concacaf Nations League trophy and reclaim the Gold Cup.

The streaming service has tens of millions of subscribers, and they will now be the sole broadcast provider for the next two Women’s World Cup tournaments. Ryan Rosenblatt, who has amazing insight on the intricacies behind these sorts of deals, comes on the show to discuss those details. From the ramp up in production to the addressing of their recent failures with one-off sporting events to how accessible they would need to make each match, it’s a great conversation that has some thoughtful approaches to what Netflix could and should do as well as the sharing of the real concerns facing the streaming service as it prepares to bring the tournament to a national audience. They have 2.5 years to make things happen, which is still a good bit of time. But, it’s short enough that the urgency needs to be there for Netflix to put together the production that they want and make it accessible to American sports fans, particularly those who wish to watch the USWNT .

With a roster that’s a mix of veterans and young players hoping to make an impact, it’s going to be a big test for Emma Hayes’s group as she begins to evaluate where this player pool can go during this World Cup cycle. After the break, we discuss the two huge announcements from players in the program: Lily Yohannes committing her future to the USWNT and Alyssa Naeher announcing her retirement from the national team.

Jamaica won their group in the League A group stage, so they’re ready to take the next step and take out another seeded team like they did with Canada last year.

Competition is the theme of this camp, and every position feels like it’s up for grabs. After the break, we discuss the two opponents for the USMNT, as they take on Panama in Austin and then head to Guadalajara for a rare road friendly against Mexico. There’s one thing that we should be looking for in this camp above all else: competitive fire and a sense of urgency to improve and get better.

The USMNT are coming off a September window that was not great, but the biggest story occurred just before the match against New Zealand on Tuesday night, when U.S. Soccer confirmed the hire of Mauricio Pochettino. Pochettino is tasked with building the program back up towards the 2026 World Cup and preparing the team to host the world and try to go deep in the tournament. It’s a shortened timetable for him with less than two years to go, but we break down what the Argentine coach brings to the table as he takes on the new project. We also answer some listener questions about Pochettino’s hire, from how we could play to what kind of formation he could employ to who we could possibly play between now and June 2026. There are a lot of factors that affect the program’s trajectory and he will be responsible for addressing them all. With his first press conference coming tomorrow morning , it will be fans’ initial chance to hear from the man himself on how he plans to get this team back on track.

Gregg Berhalter has been fired as the United States Men’s National Team head coach, and we discuss the fallout on Episode 139 of the USA Soccercast. Gregg Berhalter’s tenure is done, which has given a large portion of the fanbase some happiness this morning. We break down what happened and offer a post mortem on Gregg Berhalter’s time as USMNT head coach. Make no mistake, despite some of the shortcomings that were held against him, he brought this program back from its lowest point and achieved quite a few goals during his time in charge. He also leaves as one of the winningest coaches in USMNT history. So, we take the time to go through some of his accomplishments as well as some of those shortcomings, including crashing out in the group stage of Copa America . In the end, we wish him well as he departs the team. Now that Berhalter is out, the work begins to find a replacement. Of course, some big names are coveted by the fanbase, but are some of those names realistic? Probably not, but to get to some of the coaches who are, we lay out some criteria that we wish to see in the next coach. The main one: we need a coach who’s available who can come in now and get straight to work by the September international window. Then, we offer some possible candidates. In the end, we all have a lot of work to do before the 2026 World Cup arrives, and once the new coach arrives, it’s time to get going. Don’t forget to follow us on Twitter and YouTube !

The USMNT enter this tournament as the hosts and wanting to be successful in this tournament. But, what does success look like?

When is it realistic to have a conversation about the direction of the program? What does the coaching staff have to do to prepare this team for not just Copa América, but beyond? We get into that quickly as the start of the tournament is here and the USMNT’s chance on the field approaches. Don’t forget to follow us on Twitter and YouTube !

Amy Griffin speaks with us to discuss how the program has been so successful - unbeaten all time in 38 matches and with 3 Deaf World Championships and gold medals at 4 Deaflympics. She also discusses some of the challenges the team faced before they became a part of U.S. Soccer’s Extended National Team program in 2022. The platform that they will have being on national TV this weekend is a historic one, but it’s also a special one for them.

On Episode 132, we are joined by Sylvs from the Shea Butter FC Podcast to discuss all the implications and what it could mean for the USWNT program as well as the growth of women’s soccer in this country and beyond! The USA and Mexico have decided to hold back from potentially hosting in 2027 a little over a couple weeks before the FIFA Congress casts their votes on it at their next meeting. That leaves Brazil and the joint bid of Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands to duke it out. But, what does it mean for the USWNT and for women’s soccer in the United States and Mexico? Sylvs has tremendous knowledge and perspective on this, so she joins after the break to discuss the implications. Brazil is rumored to be the favorite now to host in 2027, and that has us excited. Sylvs discusses what it would mean for Brazil to host and why it would be a good thing for women’s soccer worldwide. We also look at the race for 2031 between the USA/Mexico and South Africa, which poses an intriguing matchup: growth of the game vs. equal investment and payouts. We’re thankful to have Sylvs come on and kick some knowledge, and be sure to follow the Shea Butter FC Podcast for their continued excellent perspectives on the game.

While they bring in a really good squad, with some new additions and some returning veterans, the competition for Olympic spots is going to be seriously tight over the next few months, as a national team roster’s worth of players was left off the squad. And, they have to come together and beat Japan and either Canada or Brazil to win the trophy. After the break, it’s time to discuss Korbin Albert’s controversial social media over the last week. It’s clear that the team will have to address it this week as they prepare for SheBelieves Cup, and we discuss the implications of her unacceptable social media posts along with her liking a post that joked about Megan Rapinoe’s injury.

Battista reported earlier this week that chronicled the potential for the 2024 U.S. Open Cup to be canceled due to U.S. Soccer failing to agree on a format that MLS would accept for its first teams to participate. The league has been public in their desire to field their reserve teams for the tournament, which has been meant with condemnation from fans across the country. Michael speaks on how the discussions have been going thus far and breaks down some of the many reasons why the tournament is in this precarious position.

Major League Soccer has brought about some rules changes for the 2024 season, and some of them are very intriguing and welcomed. However, the worst change they attempted was to withdraw its first teams from the U.S. Open Cup. U.S. Soccer said nope, and now we have a stalemate. But, we discuss how severely stupid it was for the league to try and withdraw from America’s longest running tournament. After the break, FIFA has set up the slots for each confederation for the 2025 Club World Cup. That includes 1 slot for the host country, the United States. Could that be the MLS Cup champion, or will they just figure out a way to get Lionel Messi and Inter Miami in? There’s also a new tournament to replace the normal Club World Cup, but the new tournament is set up to fully benefit the UEFA Champions League winner. We discuss that tournament as well.

We discuss the resume of Emma Hayes and what she’s done as a coach leading up to this point. We then get into what makes her a great coach and what USWNT fans can expect from the team with Hayes in charge. There was an excellent article by ESPN’s Sophie Lawson that discussed Hayes’s tactics, coaching philosophy, and the style of play her teams have. Hayes also likes to develop young talent, and with a program in transition, there will be lots of chances for her to bring along some of the younger players who could form the core of the USWNT moving forward. It’s an exciting time and what looks to be a new era of the USWNT, and fans should look forward to watching her operate as she puts her stamp on the USWNT program.

The October window was a bit of a struggle for the USWNT, as they played Colombia in two friendlies last weekend. The first match was a scoreless stalemate, with the USWNT looking like they had not attempted to change anything from what we had seen this year leading into the Women’s World Cup. In the second friendly, the first half repeated some of those failed tactics and personnel decisions. However, with the substitution of a couple of the new young players at halftime, the dynamic changed. We discuss how Mia Fishel and Jaedyn Shaw should prompt a hard review of the program and should renew the desire by many to integrate the youth into the fabric of this team to make it theirs, especially with the W Gold Cup and the Olympics approaching in 2024. After the break, the USWNT head coaching search could be near its end, and U.S. Soccer appears to be down to three finalists : Australia head coach Tony Gustavsson, Juventus head coach Joe Montemurro, and OL Reign FC head coach Laura Harvey. We discuss what some of the pros and cons are with these coaches, as well as what the priorities should be for the program with the hiring of the next head coach.

On this episode, we welcome Eric Schmitz from the World of Concacaf Podcast to help us debate one of the main topics of the week. First, we have discussion on the rumored 2024 home jersey for the USMNT and USWNT. U.S. Soccer needs a jersey identity, and the Waldos are it. However, we discuss the rumored jersey design and explain the need to identify something that U.S. Soccer fans can start to get behind ahead of the 2026 World Cup. Speaking of the 2026 World Cup, the rumors are all over the place: LA out, Vegas potentially in, and AT&T Stadium aka JerryWorld in the driver’s seat to host the 2026 World Cup Final. Could SoFi Stadium, the most expensive stadium in the history of the world, really not host matches? It seems possible, and Jerry Jones and the Dallas committee is pulling out all the stops in an effort to host the final. After the break, we are joined by Eric Schmitz of the World of Concacaf Podcast to discuss a debate that was set in motion a couple days ago by Jozy Altidore’s appearance on CBS Sports Golazo’s “Kickin It” show . Eric Schmitz helps us break down which team could be the better one between the two teams (with some additions to each, because it helps balance how you discuss this). It’s an awesome conversation that you won’t want to miss. And you should chime in with your thoughts in the comments!

The USA Soccercast is back with Episode 117, as we get ready for the USWNT ’s matches against Colombia this weekend as well as dip into the mailbag. The USWNT take on Colombia twice this weekend, with the first one coming tonight in Salt Lake City . We quickly preview the matchup, the USWNT roster, and a few players from Las Cafeteras that fans should pay attention to when they hit the field. These matches are important as we start to see who tries to separate themselves and show they should be on the shortened roster for the Olympics next summer. After the break, we dip into the mailbag for a great question: who is your all-time USWNT gameday roster? That includes the starting XI and your bench. We go through each position in the starting XI and also who would make the bench. Of course, we want to know who your all-time WNT roster would be, so chime in on Twitter or via email!

बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदWe have a cool interview on Episode 116 as we welcome Danny Penza from The Old Lady Speaks Podcast ! Juventus is one of the teams that has multiple USMNT players on its roster, with Weston McKennie rejoining the club this summer from his loan stint with Leeds United and Tim Weah moving in a permanent transfer from Lille. However, dreams of these two dynamic players teaming up on the field for the Bianconeri have been shortlived, as the two players have essentially combined to form a tandem at the right wingback position. Danny discusses how each player has been doing for Juve this season, taking a deeper dive on the formation changes and why McKennie has moved into a starting role with Weah being his backup, while both play out of position. We also opine on whether this could change down the road as Juventus attempts to finish in the Top 4 in Serie A this season. To stay up to date on how McKennie and Weah do with Juventus as the season progresses, the people at Black & White & Read All Over do fantastic work.

The USMNT had a good week against Uzbekistan and Oman during their latest international window, and we recap the matches as well as some of the rationale behind playing these teams as the World Cup cycle begins in earnest. As we move forward, the idea of playing different teams from all confederations that we could see in an expanded World Cup means seeing different styles of play and allowing our team to be ready for any team that may come their way. After the break, the USWNT are back in action this week with 2 matches against South Africa. Their World Cup cycle has also begun, but it begins knowing that the next major test - the Olympics - are less than a year away. And, the USWNT will be entering these matches with an interim head coach as they also say goodbye to Julie Ertz and Megan Rapinoe. We discuss the roster and the upcoming friendlies against a tough Banyana Banyana squad. Finally, U.S. Soccer will be moving to Atlanta in the near future, as they announced a new training center and headquarters will be built there thanks to a $50 million donation from Arthur Blank. We discuss how the move could affect our national teams and how they prepare once it’s open.

The USMNT are back in action against two new opponents in Uzbekistan and Oman. It marks the return of head coach Gregg Berhalter to the sidelines, and he has a new 24-man roster that consists of some of the veterans along with a few new faces. We discuss the roster along with some of the players who are not on this roster due to injury as well as some of the youth that do make this roster. After the break, we have to get into the drama that still surrounds Gregg Berhalter and Gio Reyna. After Berhalter indicated in a Vanity Fair article that he still has not spoken with Gio to clear the air and has consulted mediators in an attempt to be “deliberate and strategic” with his approach. That reconciliation process between Berhalter and Reyna has several moving parts, and it’s way more complex than Berhalter just picking up the phone and calling him. We discuss some of the factors that’s contributing to the complexity of this reconciliation process.

There were some new players that made the roster as well as some veterans, and we sing some of the praises of the players that earned their spot on the plane. There were also players who didn’t make the roster, whether it was due to injury or a coach’s decision. Some of them are incredible talents who will be missed, like Becky Sauerbrunn, Catarina Macario, Christen Press, Samantha Mewis, or Tobin Heath. Others just didn’t feel to be in the plans of head coach Vlatko Andonovski. We discuss some of them and why those players didn’t make the cut. Finally, the USWNT are facing a lot of pressure as they try to win a third straight World Cup title, something no men’s or women’s team has ever done. They’ve already faced immense pressure as they struggle with the prevailing thought that the world has caught up with them. However, this team has an ability to lock in and focus on the goal in front of them better than most teams in the course of sports history, and that helps us get excited about the tournament as it begins in just under 30 days.

बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदWelcome to 2023! The United States national soccer teams have another big year ahead of them, but we first stop to look back on the year that was on Episode 90 of the SSFC Podcast. The USMNT, USWNT, and the youth national teams had a lot of successes and some down moments in 2022. We start by quickly recapping what each team accomplished last year. The USMNT qualified for and competed in the 2022 World Cup, the USWNT won the Concacaf W Championship and qualified for the 2023 Women’s World Cup as well as the 2024 Olympics, and the USMNT U-20s qualified the United States for the 2024 Olympics in men’s soccer for the first time since 2008. There were obviously some down moments, and we discuss those as well. After the break, we look forward to what 2023 has in store for us. It’s a Women’s World Cup year, and that’s the biggest tournament on the schedule for U.S. Soccer. For the USMNT, Nations League and the Gold Cup are on the horizon, but the biggest question is who the coach will be moving forward. The men’s U-20s play in a World Cup this year, and the men’s U-17s will need to qualify for their World Cup. There’s a lot of soccer to excite fans, and we hope 2023 is a great year for all our national teams! Learn more about your ad choices.

बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदThe United States Women’s National Team have been around since the mid-1980s, and through their 4 decades of history, there have been some incredible players, moments, and stories. On Episode 89 of the SSFC Podcast, we speak with Gwendolyn Oxenham, who has taken on the incredible task of compiling these stories and moments into a new book that just recently hit book stores. The book is called Pride of a Nation: A Celebration of the US Women’s National Soccer Team , and it is a collection of essays by Oxenham that is combined with over 250 full page photographs that chronicle the history of the USWNT. From the team’s early beginnings and the story of how the “OOSA OOSA OOSA AH” chant came to be a rallying cry for the program, all the way to the current team and its continual efforts to bring social change to the game for future generations, it’s a terrific interview with Gwendolyn Oxenham as she speaks on some of the research she underwent to create the book and some of her favorite moments. Oxenham is no stranger to the soccer field or bringing the stories of soccer to the people. She has been involved in writing books and producing films and podcasts on soccer for over a decade. Her most acclaimed effort on the film side was producing and starring in the 2010 documentary Pelada , which won several awards. She also wrote and directed the 2015 sports documentary An Equal Playing Field , and was a consulting producer for the 2018 series Finding Football . On the written side, she’s already written 2 books: Finding the Game: Three Years, Twenty-five Countries and the Search for Pickup Soccer and Under the Lights and in the Dark: Untold Stories of Women’s Soccer .

How do you properly pay tribute to a fallen legend? We pay tribute to Grant Wahl on the latest episode of the SSFC Podcast. Grant Wahl, the incredible soccer journalist and author, passed away early Saturday morning at the age of 49 after collapsing while covering the Argentina-Netherlands match at Lusail Stadium. The news of his death was a complete gut punch for the soccer community. Dr. Céline Gounder, Grant’s wife for 21 years, posted a statement to Grant’s Substack this morning that Grant passed due to “he rupture of a slowly growing, undetected ascending aortic aneurysm with hemopericardium.” While it may give some answers, it probably doesn’t bring comfort to Céline, Grant’s brother Eric, Grant’s brother-in-law, and the scores of colleagues and close friends that knew him well. Grant was such a genuine person, as evidenced by the number of people who have paid tribute to him from all around the country. And, we go through some of the personal interactions that we had with Grant and what made him so great and willing to help out others in this space or to just vibe out on the game we love so much. Everyone here at Stars & Stripes FC continue to send our condolences to Grant’s family and friends. It was a monumental loss for the soccer community, and it’s a void that may never be fully filled.

USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter has reportedly begun preliminary talks with U.S. Soccer over a contract extension, and we discuss that history provides us evidence that a coach should not last beyond one World Cup cycle. No matter what you think of his performance in Qatar, the evidence is there that, at least for the USMNT, 2 cycle coaches just don’t pan out. After the break, we get into the rumor that not only will the USMNT be in the 2024 Copa América, they will also host the tournament. We opine that getting into Copa América is going to be a great thing for the team to test itself against some of the strongest teams in the world. However, they should be focused on playing South America’s tournament in South America, not asking the continent to move their tournament here.

A 3-1 loss to the Netherlands ends their tournament, and we recap everything on Episode 86 of the SSFC Podcast. The USMNT started out with some confidence, but the Oranje had their number all night on the counterattack, with incredible efficiency on the offensive end. The USMNT just couldn’t match that, and even with some second half subs and a Haji Wright goal to give them some hope, it wasn’t enough as Denzel Dumfries, Memphis Depay, Daley Blind, and the rest of the Dutch squad were too much for the young American team. After the break, the next World Cup cycle is around the corner, and it’s an important one for the USMNT. With them co-hosting the 2026 World Cup, the time is now for U.S. Soccer to start preparing the nation to support the team and to help the team get ready for the rigors of high expectations. We look at what tournaments await the USMNT in the next cycle, and a big tournament that the team needs to try and enter. In the end, the idea should be for U.S. Soccer to start packing football stadiums full of fans to get them excited about this team and gain some momentum as we head towards 2026.

The United States Men’s National Team is set to take on the Netherlands tomorrow in the World Cup Round of 16, and we preview everything on Episode 85 of the SSFC Podcast. In this episode, we analyze what to watch for tomorrow against the Dutch and we examine the World Cup from the fan experience perspective. The Round of 16 is set, so we go over the bracket quickly to see what the road to the World Cup trophy is for the teams remaining. The USMNT have some injury questions answered, namely the health of winger Christian Pulisic. Josh Sargent’s injury is more of a question mark, and he’s likely doubtful for tomorrow. We discuss from the USMNT’s perspective what they need to do in order to get a victory and advance to the quarterfinals for the first time since 2002. That includes being assertive in creating the attack, keeping the Dutch forwards in front of them, and embracing the moment of being in the knockout stage, where anything can happen. After the break, we get into the discussion of what it was like being at the World Cup. From a fan perspective, there were some good things about being at the World Cup, some unique moments that fans could take advantage of while they were there. There have obviously been some incredible matches during the World Cup, and fans were able to experience many of them. However, there was also the bad and the ugly from this World Cup, from inconsistent security to detention for allowed items. We briefly discuss those bad and ugly things as well.

The United States Men’s National Team are in the Round of 16, and we recap the group stage of the 2022 FIFA World Cup on Episode 84 of the SSFC Podcast. The USMNT entered the World Cup with many questions, but they have played inspired soccer on their way to 2 draws and a win during the group stage. We recap the team’s performances against Wales, England, and Iran that helped propel them to the knockout stage. We also discuss some key players who have had standout performances for the USMNT during those matches. After the break, we discuss the rest of the World Cup field, as half of the Round of 16 is complete. The USMNT is currently carrying Concacaf on its back, with Mexico and Canada already eliminated and Costa Rica needing a win against Germany to move to the knockout stage. We discuss some of the other teams that have made it to the knockout stage, including a team that makes it out of the group for only the second time in their history.

After the break, we put the focus squarely on the USMNT, starting with listing the roster that will represent us at the World Cup. We break down who made the roster and some surprise inclusions and omissions. Then, we get into the group stage and even potential knockout stage opponents for the USMNT and determine what success could mean for the youngest team in the field of 32. Finally, to end, we discuss our coverage of the World Cup amidst all the controversy and just overall awful surrounding the tournament, from the way it was obtained to the thousands of lives lost building the stadiums that will host the games.

बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदThe United States Women’s National Team released its roster earlier Monday for the September international window, and on Episode 82 we welcome back Skye & Sylvs from the Shea Butter FC Podcast to break down the roster in detail! The 23-player roster is the same as from the Concacaf W Championship: GOALKEEPERS (3): Aubrey Kingsbury (Washington Spirit), Casey Murphy (North Carolina Courage), Alyssa Naeher (Chicago Red Stars) DEFENDERS (6): Alana Cook (OL Reign), Emily Fox (Racing Louisville FC), Naomi Girma (San Diego Wave FC), Sofia Huerta (OL Reign), Kelley O’Hara (Washington Spirit), Becky Sauerbrunn (Portland Thorns FC) MIDFIELDERS (7): Sam Coffey (Portland Thorns FC); Lindsey Horan (Olympique Lyon), Taylor Kornieck (San Diego Wave FC), Rose Lavelle (OL Reign), Kristie Mewis (NJ/NY Gotham FC), Ashley Sanchez (Washington Spirit), Andi Sullivan (Washington Spirit) FORWARDS (7): Ashley Hatch (Washington Spirit), Alex Morgan (San Diego Wave FC), Mallory Pugh (Chicago Red Stars), Midge Purce (NJ/NY Gotham FC), Megan Rapinoe (OL Reign), Trinity Rodman (Washington Spirit), Sophia Smith (Portland Thorns FC) However, there was a notable omission from the roster in Mia Fishel, and Skye & Sylvs go into detail on fan confusion over the standards by which players are selected for the USWNT. As we approach friendlies, USWNT head coach Vlatko Andonovski opted to continue with the roster he already had rather than bring in new talent for evaluation. There’s also a frank discussion on whether the USWNT can stack up against teams like England, who they will play in London on October 7th before a sold out Wembley Stadium. In what will be a major test, will this USWNT roster be the one that can pass that test? We discuss tactics, player selection, how the USWNT matches up against Nigeria and England, and a whole lot more! Give the Shea Butter FC Podcast a follow on social media, as well as Skye & Sylvs for all the women’s soccer analysis from an incredibly unique and needed perspective.

बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदThe SSFC Podcast is back, and Episode 81 is ready for your weekend consumption after a lengthy but rewarding summer break! With so much going on, there was one big topic that got the podcast back in the booth: the 2022 U.S. Soccer jerseys. They have been the talk of the USMNT and USWNT fanbase all week, and not because they’ve been universally loved. We are a month away from their release, and fans are upset at the result of these designs. We dive into the jerseys, from their design elements to what people don’t like about them. We also get into the design process and how it generally works, and how a jersey goes from drawing board to the soccer field. As we approach the World Cup, we give our thoughts on the jersey designs, and how U.S. Soccer and Nike can bring several parties into the process in order to develop a jersey identity that we can be proud to have, and spoiler alert: we’re talking about the Waldos.

We asked for your questions on the USMNT, USWNT, or just the general state of American soccer. And, we received some amazing questions that we had to discuss. Who’s going to pair with Walker Zimmerman at centerback when the USMNT heads to Qatar for the World Cup? Where would be the best destination for Christian Pulisic this summer? Is riding the bench in Europe really better than playing regularly in Major League Soccer? Why does California never get any “important” matches? These are some of the topics that have caused debates all over the country, and we take the time to give our take as well. These questions will surely continue throughout the summer, so don’t wait for another episode to get your question in!

बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदAn article earlier this week by Steven Goff of the Washington Post had some incredible nuggets of information about the United States Men’s National Team, and we discuss some of that info on Episode 79! The USMNT only have a double international window in June and a September window before the 2022 World Cup, and Goff gives us some information from Gregg Berhalter about how those windows could shape up. We begin with the June double window, which sees the USMNT have 4 matches: 2 friendlies and 2 Concacaf Nations League group stage matches. Berhalter gives a glimpse of who we could see included on the roster for those matches, as well as who may miss the cut either due to injury or other reasons. We then move to the September window, in which we learn that Spain and Germany are the potential places where we could play matches against teams from Asia. Who could those teams be? What stadiums are under consideration? Some research is done to give some educated guesses. After the break, the USMNT and USWNT will have new jerseys this fall, and while it was discussed initially on Episode 67, we once again discuss how plain they look. The United States needs a jersey identity, but these aren’t it. We’ve opined on this before, but we’ll say it again: just bring back the Waldos. Everyone wants them back, so make it so!

बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदThe USMNT are in the World Cup, and we recap the final World Cup qualifying window on Episode 77 of the SSFC Podcast! There’s a lot of ground to cover on this episode. The USMNT secure their World Cup spot, there was a World Cup draw, a Concacaf Nations League draw, and we react to all of it, beginning with the recap of the last international window for the USMNT. We go through the draw at Azteca, the win over Panama, and the loss to Costa Rica, probably the best loss in USMNT history. That loss was enough to give the USMNT 3rd place in the Octagonal and a spot in the World Cup. The World Cup draw was just a few days later, and Donald was in the building in Doha to watch it all go down. The USMNT draw England, Iran, and the Wales/Scotland/Ukraine playoff winner in Group B, and it’s a group that the U.S. can manage if they play at full strength. Still, there will be a lot of questions to answer between now and November. After the break, the Nations League draw also took place earlier this week in Miami, and the USMNT drew El Salvador and Grenada in Group D. We look at the schedule and what it means for the United States. Finally, there are rumors circulating that the United States is pushing to host the 2024 Copa America. We dispel those rumors for now and discuss the fact that the USMNT need to test themselves more on the road. Don’t forget to like, subscribe, rate, and review the show.

The USMNT have the last World Cup qualifying window approaching, with an away match at Estadio Azteca against Mexico next Thursday, a home match against Panama on March 27th, and another road qualifier against Costa Rica on March 30th. Today, Gregg Berhalter released his 27-man roster for the window, and we begin by breaking down who made the roster and some players that didn’t. There are some injuries that kept some key players off the roster like Matt Turner and Weston McKennie, and we reveal some of the players who could be called in should Sergiño Dest be deemed out due to the injury he suffered. We also bring up John Brooks once again being left off the roster and the statement he made to fans on his plans to continue to fight for his place on the team. After the break, U.S Soccer has a new media rights deal with TurnerSports, and there’s a discussion on what that means for the USMNT and the USWNT. Get ready to have TNT, TBS, and HBO Max readily available for U.S. Soccer matches starting in 2023. We’ll be back after this important window, but Stars & Stripes FC will have all the coverage during these important World Cup qualifiers.

बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदThe USA Soccercast is back with Episode 103, and we’re discussing a topic that has been on the minds of many over the past few weeks and months: will Lionel Messi actually come to Major League Soccer? I’m here to throw cold water on the idea that Messi will end up at Inter Miami, and there are several reasons why, but many of them center around money. Vast amounts of money, enough to make Scrooge McDuck say “that’s a lot of money!” MLS has been doing its best to keep the name of the league attached to Messi as he sorts out his future plans, but in the end, the type of money being offered to Messi by Saudi club Al Hilal might be too much to turn down. We discuss the several scenarios and end with the conclusion that the arguable GOAT coming to America just doesn’t feel like it’s truly in the cards.

As many of you know, back in late January, the Stars & Stripes FC Podcast was among many entities that were a part of the layoffs by SB Nation and Vox Media . We address the future of the show on Episode 101, which serves as both an introduction and a re-introduction. The date of the podcast’s separation from the SB Nation Podcast Network had originally been the end of February, but that date was pushed back to today. And today’s as good a time as any to announce that we’re changing the name of the show: the USA Soccercast! The USA Soccercast will continue to bring you analysis on the USMNT , USWNT, and the players that comprise those teams. However, with the move to the new name, the analysis will extend to Major League Soccer, the NWSL , USL Championship and League One, and anything else that could impact soccer in America. From the Women’s World Cup to Leagues Cup, we’ll discuss it all, and hopefully have some special guests along the way. We also have a new Twitter account, so give @USASoccercast a follow, and of course, please subscribe if you aren’t already! If you have topic suggestions, please drop me a line at USA Soccercast at Gmail dot com. We’ll also have a new logo that’s currently under construction but coming soon.

बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदThe Concacaf Nations League is undergoing some format changes starting in September, and on a milestone 100th episode of the SSFC Podcast, we dive into what those changes are and what it means for the USMNT. The format changes to the Nations League sees League A expand to 16 teams starting in September. They are also adding a quarterfinal leg that is a two-legged, home-and-away format. However, this format change sees the top 4 teams in Concacaf, including the USMNT, skipping the group stage and entering at the quarterfinal stage. This means they’ll only need to play 2 games potentially to qualify for the Nations League Finals as well as the 2024 Copa América. After the break, we discuss the fact that while it’s better for the USMNT from a preparation standpoint for the 2026 World Cup, it really stinks that we don’t get to participate in the group stage anymore of truly the greatest tournament on the planet. Traveling to islands to play is something that most big teams in the rest of the world don’t get to do, and it’s fun too. The level playing field that was supposed to define the Concacaf Nations League appears to be gone, at least for the next two editions of the tournament. We end with some thanks to everyone who’s ever listened to the show, all our guests, and some people who provided some extra help or encouragement along the way. It’s been a thrill to bring 100 episodes of this show to the masses, and it’s truly an honor to know that so many of you willingly listened and have enjoyed it along the way.

We discuss the ramifications on Episode 99 of the SSFC Podcast. The USWNT may have shown the world that despite some of their struggles and all of the injuries, they’re still the favorites to win this summer’s Women’s World Cup when they put it all together. Mallory Swanson is carrying the scoring load so far in 2023, but the team also answered each of the tests that Canada, Japan, and Brazil presented them. However, with the announcement that the USWNT will play Ireland in two home matches in April, it represents the last official window for players to show that they should be one of the 23 that make the trip to New Zealand and Australia this summer. With the NWSL starting at the end of March, the race is on to put enough out there that these players get one of those camp calls and show Vlatko that they can contribute to a potential 3-peat. We also discuss some of the questions surrounding the midfield and the forwards and what can be done to keep the creative players on the field.

This week, we have 8 stories that we briefly discuss and why the stories were important to tell: Kim Crabbe being the 1st Black woman called into the USWNT Sandi Gordon becoming the 1st Black woman to earn a USWNT cap An interview we did with Desmond Armstrong about being one of the first African Americans on the USMNT and becoming the first American to play in Brazil The 1971-1974 Howard Bison team that won a national title, saw it vacated by the NCAA, and winning another one a few years later Bill Hamid’s greatness and becoming the youngest goalkeeper in MLS history Elliot Barr’s incredible efforts to bring you Black soccer history stories through the Can I Kick It FC Podcast Crystal Dunn being the greatest talent America has produced How the Black Players for Change had one of the most important moments in American soccer history and the work they’ve done to bring change to our soccer culture Again, there are many other stories that are worth sharing, and we encourage you to read them all.

The 23 players who will compete in the tournament for the USWNT are basically the same set of players we’ve seen over the past few months. With Rose Lavelle out for the first match due to a knock she picked up in training this week, the midfield will have even more questions as they presumably attempt to insert Taylor Kornieck at the 6 to fill the void created by the absence of Julie Ertz and Sam Mewis. We also take a deeper look at that midfield, focusing on how the team played last month and where the goal contributions were created from the midfield players in 2022. Spoiler: the player who logged far and away the most caps and minutes had the fewest goal contributions of the main midfielders. What does the USWNT need to do in order to create more opportunities while also tracking back on defense. Send questions and topic suggestions to SSFC Podcast at Gmail dot com.

बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदOver the course of Black History Month every year, we’ve done our best to write stories of those players and moments that deserved to be told to a wider audience. Sometimes, it’s good to look back and relive some of those stories, and we do that on Episode 96 of the SSFC Podcast. There are 6 stories that we look back on, either because they were important moments or a cross section of how Black culture and soccer go hand in hand. Those stories are: Bob Marley and how his love for music was equaled by his passion for soccer The day Marc-Vivien Foé died on the field at the 2003 Confederations Cup When Siphiwe Tshabalala scored the opening goal in the 2010 World Cup for all of Africa Didier Drogba uses his voice and platform and stops a civil war, bringing peace to the Ivory Coast How the Kaizer Chiefs have a link to the NASL and American soccer The Boateng brothers make history at the World Cup. There are so many other stories worth reliving, and over the course of the month, I’ll continue to bring more, hopefully every day, where we learn about some of the most important stories of our time involving Black athletes. And, we’ll do more reliving on the podcast as well as we move towards the end of the month. Black history is American history. Black History is world history. And it’s no different in soccer, where some of the great players and moments of the game’s history wouldn’t occur with the accomplishments of Black athletes.

The USMNT had friendlies last week against Serbia (2-1 loss) and Colombia (0-0 draw), but while the results on the field weren’t great, it was a chance for some players in their first national team camp to have an opportunity to show that they can be a part of the player pool moving forward. We use that opportunity to push back on Herculez Gomez’s belief that January Camp has jumped the shark and should be repurposed as a U-23 camp. Many players have stressed the importance of the camp, and we discuss why. After the break, Weston McKennie is headed to Leeds United in a loan deal to team up with his USMNT friends Tyler Adams and Brenden Aaronson. We discuss the implications of seeing most of the the USMNT midfield playing and training together every day at Elland Road.

The SSFC Podcast received some grim news today, as did dozens of people in the various SB Nation communities. This morning, I received an email from SB Nation’s higher ups that let us know that the company, along with its parent company Vox Media, would be undergoing some layoffs as well as other cuts. Unfortunately, those cuts included the end of support for the Stars & Stripes FC Podcast as of February 28th. There were several SB Nation team sites that were also told that their support and funding would end, including many sites focusing on MLS teams. Stars & Stripes FC as a website has not been affected by today’s cuts and our community will remain a part of SB Nation as a fully supported website. This site will continue to bring you all the content on our USMNT and USWNT, and we hope you continue to bring positive contributions to our comments section as well as our Fan Posts. So, today’s a bittersweet day as many of our sister blogs will not continue after the end of February. The future of this podcast is uncertain, but as we figure it out, we will keep you all in the know. The SSFC Podcast is not saying goodbye just yet. But, its future on the SB Nation network does have an expiration date. For now, continue to send any questions you have or topic suggestions to SSFC Podcast at Gmail dot com.

45:53 बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंद45:53
बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदWhat a week! The Gregg Berhalter-Reyna family scandal rocked the U.S. Soccer world, and we have to recap it on Episode 91 of the SSFC Podcast. The events of last week involving USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter being put under investigation for a 1991 domestic violence incident and then finding out it was Danielle and Claudio Reyna - Gio’s parents and ex-national team players - that gave U.S. Soccer the information took the internet by storm. It was important to recap the entire timeline, starting from before the 2022 World Cup, to understand the full course of events. What we know now is interwoven with what we knew at the time to paint the full picture. After that, we have to get into the culpability of all parties, from Berhalter to the Reyna family to people at U.S. Soccer who were talking with the Reynas about Gio’s role on the team. There’s a lot of people who could have done things differently where this whole saga could have been avoided, and there’s one person - Rosalind Berhalter - who absolutely didn’t deserve to be thrust into the middle of this. After the break, we discuss what all of this means for the USMNT head coaching search. With Zinedine Zidane reportedly contacted by U.S. Soccer to gauge his interest in speaking about the job, it looks like U.S. Soccer could be aiming high and casting a very wide net. However, this scandal will not only affect how U.S. Soccer has to approach this hiring process, but also how Gio Reyna especially will be handled moving forward. There’s also the added element of what happens if Gregg Berhalter is retained as the coach for the next cycle. There are several more layers to this and we will continue to track it all.

On this episode, we’re joined by Skye and Sylvs, who are the pair behind the wonderful Shea Butter FC Podcast, which focuses on Black women and non-binary people in soccer. They talk about what they saw from the press box at the first two matches and in general from the USWNT. We start with the SheBelieves Cup, where the USWNT had a 0-0 draw against the Czech Republic, a 5-0 win over New Zealand, and a 5-0 win over Iceland to close out the tournament. Skye and Sylvs discuss the good and the bad of the USWNT’s performance in each match in detail, from some of the link up play to how the team should consider moving forward with the makeup of its roster. We also take some time to learn more about their show, the Shea Butter FC Podcast, and what motivated them to enter the podcasting space. We talk about some of the important topics they discuss and the lane they’ve already created to shine a light on all the Black players, executives, and supporters groups that are taking over the game.

The United States Women’s National Team prepare for SheBelieves Cup, and we do a quick preview of all the games on Episode 74. The USWNT will begin their 2022 schedule tomorrow against Czech Republic, continue on Sunday against New Zealand, and end next Wednesday with a match against Iceland. There is excitement around some of the young talent that’s in this camp, like Midge Purce, Trinity Rodman, and Ashley Sanchez. Can they make an impact on this team during this tournament? This year is an important one for the USWNT, with the Concacaf W Championship this summer serving as qualfiying for both the 2023 Women’s World Cup qualifying and the 2024 Summer Olympics. We talk briefly about why the USWNT have ended up drawing the Czech Republic, New Zealand, and Iceland for this edition of SheBelieves instead of the traditional powers that normally participate in this tournament. But, this could serve as a great test for the USWNT, mimicking a theoretical World Cup group.

The USMNT got 6 of a possible 9 points during the window, which still leaves them controlling their own destiny as we head towards the final window in March. Looming in that March window: trips to Azteca to face Mexico and an away trip in San Jose, Costa Rica. Also, another must-win match in Orlando against Panama is sandwiched in the middle. We review the window and how the USMNT played, and we check the standings and scenarios for the USMNT to qualify directly for the 2022 World Cup. After the break, the Concacaf Nations League is back! We review details of the next edition of the tournament. The draw takes place April 4th and matches begin in the May/June window. We see what the draw could look like in April as well as what the USMNT could be facing for their summer and fall schedule. Finally, the USWNT roster is out for SheBelieves Cup!

The January transfer window is open and it has already been busy for Americans. We’ve seen Daryl Dike move to West Bromwich Albion and James Sands go to Rangers FC on loan.

First, the USMNT had another magic night in Ohio with a Dos A Cero win over Mexico. We discuss some of the banter and address some of the people who still continued to hate on Gregg Berhalter even after a historic victory, his 3rd over Mexico in 6 months. After the break, we get into the draw down at The Office to Jamaica. While it was a hot and muggy night, the team looked sluggish for most of the match.

We also opine as to which players will not be able to travel with the squad to Jamaica due to Covid restrictions that have forced the match to be played behind closed doors.

There were several players who were included on this roster that did not make it in the September window: Paul Arriola, Tim Weah, Gyasi Zardes, Luca de la Torre, Matthew Hoppe, Shaq Moore, Yunus Musah, Chris Richards, and Gianluca Busio. While Gio Reyna and Christian Pulisic were not included due to injury, Jordan Pefok, Josh Sargent, Ethan Horvath, and Konrad de la Fuente were also left off the roster. There are also others who were not on either roster that fans may think should have been brought into camp. We discuss it all briefly on this episode. We close out this episode with a personal tribute to Martin Huschka, an inspirational young boy in the American soccer family who passed away late last week due to complications from a neurodegenerative disorder that was so rare, there have been only 14 cases worldwide. I tell the story of Martin’s journey, what he meant to me and why he is the strongest boy that I’ve ever met. Martin is going to be missed by so many, but the joy that he shared is something that will remain in the hearts of all who were blessed to meet him or be inspired through his story.

After that, we recap a busy final day to the European winter transfer window, touching on a few key moves. Most notably, Daryl Dike’s loan to Barnsley FC would not have happened if he didn’t play in the USMNT friendly the night before! After the break, SheBelieves Cup is around the corner! We take a look at the USWNT roster that will take on Canada, Brazil, and Argentina this month. We also look at the training roster and what Coach Vlatko Andonovski’s thinking was behind having Emily Fox, Jaelin Howell, and Mallory Pugh in camp when they aren’t playing.

It’s a wonderful thing to see players investing in the game, particularly to help grow it in the areas where they grew up.

After the break, we conclude with the USWNT and how the new Concacaf women’s calendar will affect them. Bottom line: the WNT will be a part of a new Nations League tournament!

The USMNT are currently in 2nd place in the Octagonal standings after a draw at El Salvador, a home draw against Canada, and a comeback win on the road at Honduras. I was in the building for all 3 matches, and we break down all the ups and downs from the window. First, I give my take on what it was like to be in the stands for all 3 matches and how we played from that vantage point. Of course, there are topics that we dive into while discussing those matches, like the amazing reception we received from fans in San Salvador, Weston McKennie being removed from the team for violating team protocols, and even pushing back on disrespectful rhetoric surrounding the match in Honduras. After the break, I welcome Eric Schmitz, co-host of the World of Concacaf Podcast, to the show to get his take on the three matches. He also traveled to each match and I ask him about his experiences not just traveling to El Salvador and Honduras but also his experience hosting the nation in Nashville for the match against Canada.

We have a legit goalkeeper competition, and the question will be who gets the start on Thursday against El Salvador, Sunday against Canada, and next Wednesday against Honduras. We also have a couple of guys on this roster that were not on the Nations League roster or the Gold Cup roster, Ricardo Pepi and Konrad de la Fuente. We’re excited about them as well. Finally, while Tim Weah had to withdraw from the roster due to an injury he suffered with Lille, Christian Pulisic has been cleared from his positive Covid-19 diagnosis and is in camp.

The USWNT will embark on World Cup qualifying next summer, as they compete in the Concacaf W Championship. That tournament will also serve as qualifying for the 2024 Summer Olympics and will also give one team an automatic spot in the other new tournament, the W Gold Cup. The USWNT’s path to the 2023 World Cup hasn’t changed much, but with the expanded World Cup field, it has become slightly easier. We examine how it has changed for them. In any case, next summer has become super important for the USWNT, as they will seek to qualify for the two major tournaments on the FIFA women’s calendar in one shot: the 2023 World Cup and the 2024 Olympics.

We’re back with Episode 57, and this is a funny one. We are joined this week by Alexis Guerreros and Christian Polanco. These two comedians form the dynamic duo The Cooligans, and they have created their own lane that mixes soccer news with stand up comedy. They have a TV show that airs Thursday nights on Fubo Sports Network, they have a podcast, and have been able to mix the funny with the soccer in a way that no one else on this side of the pond dares try. But, on top of it, they’re fans of the game and that inspires them to talk about it in the best way. We start the interview with how The Cooligans came to form, and how they focus on being funny over bringing the stats to a conversation. They also get into how they’ve been able to interview so many athletes and how that shapes how they view the game. We also discuss the summer for the USMNT and the USWNT and the excitement they have for American soccer as a whole. We then get into some soccer-adjacent topics, like the best pizza outside of New York/New Jersey, jersey swag, and who inspires their comedy. It’s a fun interview that is certain to make you laugh at times, but you will also be able to feel their emotion at times as they discuss their love for the game! Learn more about your ad choices.

We focus mainly on the Nations League matches and just everything that we saw during those two matches. It was as Concacaf-y of a tournament as Concacaf has ever had. It had it all - time wasting, fights, VAR disallowing goals, VAR allowing 2 penalties, a penalty save, mistakes, and above all energy and passion.

Currently, there are a few, but while the focus has been on getting players to Europe, pathways need to be discovered that give more American coaches the opportunity to do the same.

We had a team that was strong enough to qualify and we didn’t do it. Why does that keep happening, particularly this time around when it was made a priority of the whole federation?

बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदOn a short Episode 29 of the SSFC Podcast, we have some United States Men’s National Team matches to recap! We quickly recap the draw against Wales and the big win against Panama, and we highlight some of the standout performances and all the goals. The WNT are next up, playing their first match since the pandemic shut down sports around them back in March. They line up against the Netherlands on Black Friday in a rematch of the 2019 Women’s World Cup final. We go through the roster and see who’s on it and note the exclusion of Lindsey Horan from the roster due to her coronavirus diagnosis. Finally, the MNT may not be done, as rumors are swirling that they could host a match in December featuring MLS-based players. Nothing’s concrete yet, but we discuss how it’s another opportunity for head coach Gregg Berhalter to evaluate more talent. The Podcast will take a break next week for Thanksgiving.

बाद में चलाएं बाद में चलाएं सूचियाँ पसंद पसंदOn this 24th episode, we begin our deep dive of the United States Men’s National Team, and we begin with a focus on the goalkeepers. Which goalkeepers are at the top of the depth chart? Which ones are fighting to be in the mix or should be in the mix? Which ones are on the outside looking in. Here is the list of goalkeepers that are discussed: Zack Steffen (25 years old, Manchester City) Sean Johnson (31, New York City FC) Bill Hamid (30, D.C. United) JT Marcinkowski (23, San Jose Earthquakes) Matt Turner (26, New England Revolution) Brad Guzan (36, Atlanta United) Jonathan Klinsmann (23, LA Galaxy) Ethan Horvath (25, Club Brugge) Stefan Frei (34, Seattle Sounders) Jesse Gonzalez (25, formerly FC Dallas) Tim Melia (34, Sporting Kansas City) David Bingham (30, LA Galaxy) David Ochoa (19, Real Monarchs/Real Salt Lake) Brady Scott (21, Nashville SC) Alex Bono (26, Toronto FC) Please note that I mention 15 goalkeepers, but there are only 14 on this list. Originally, I discussed former FC Dallas goalkeeper Jesse Gonzalez being at the very bottom of this list because of his domestic violence charge and sexual harassment accusations against him. Frankly, I didn't feel comfortable even having him on any list because he doesn't deserve to be on the national team, straight up. So, I removed that portion of the discussion, and we're left with 14 guys who deserve at least to be on this depth chart. Who do you think belongs in that first tier of the depth chart? Which ones do you want called in for competitions like World Cup qualifying, the Gold Cup, Nations League, or the Olympics should we qualify? Continue the discussion and the debate in the comments below.

On Episode 23, we look into the WNT’s training camp that’s set to begin on the 18th and we take a look at the MNT players who are in biggest need of a move that didn’t secure one during the European transfer window. We first look at the USWNT. Coach Andonovski has set up a training camp from October 18-28 in Colorado, and he has called in 27 players. There aren’t any matches associated with this camp, so it’s a chance to evaluate some young talent and some NWSL veterans. There are some promising names on this list, and we analyze them one by one. After the break, we discuss the Community Corner topic of the week: MNT players who didn’t move to a new club that would have benefitted from a move during the transfer window. There are quite a few players who fall into this group, but we discuss a few of them in detail. Don’t forget, please subscribe and rate us if you like what you’re hearing, and tell your friends!

DeAndre Yedlin could be on the move to MLS, and we discuss if that's a good idea for him or if he has what it takes to remain in Europe somewhere. We also discuss Uly Llanez's move to Heerenveen in the Eredivisie. Next, could the United States benefit from putting on state tournaments like Brazil has?
