#163 - What a fun USMNT window that was!

We recap a fun November international window for the United States Men’s National Team live from Tampa on Episode 163! It’s a morning after the match edition of the podcast, where we recap what was a very successful window for the USMNT: a 2-1 victory over Paraguay and a 5-1 thrashing of Uruguay. We go through what some of the successes were, notably the players that excelled, and discuss how the intensity has increased and the fight has elevated for this team and maybe that’s why they’re doing so well. We go through the goal scorers and briefly rate the performances of players by positions. As we move closer to the 2026 World Cup, we’ve learned a lot about these players and we discuss some of that briefly. We also discuss the news that Major League Soccer is moving to a fall-spring schedule, and some of the positives and negative that will come with the change. There’s also a format shift in how the table will work as well as who teams will play during each season - a single table with divisions. We touch on that as we fly high with happiness from the international window. Don’t forget to follow us on Bluesky, Twitter, and YouTube!
