Heartbreak for Cardoso | Pulisic form & fitness concerns | Poch's roster dilemma (Soccer 5/12)

from Call It What You Want: A CBS Sports Golazo Network Podcast · host CBS Sports, USMNT, U.S. Soccer, MLS, World Cup, UCL, Americans Abroad

Chris Wittyngham, Tony Meola, and Benny Feilhaber react to the news that Johnny Cardoso will require ankle surgery, and what it could mean for the makeup of the USMNT squad. With Christian Pulisic, Tanner Tessmann, and Tim Weah also dealing with late-season knocks, how worried should U.S. fans be about the mounting injury list? The crew also breaks down what Mauricio Pochettino and his staff learned while scouting over the weekend, whether Jack McGlynn’s brace vs. LAFC earned him a closer look, and if Poch is making a mistake by limiting his pre-World Cup camp to just 26 players. Plus, with Cardoso likely out of contention for the World Cup, the guys revisit their projected roster. If Pochettino switches back to a back four, how many defenders does he need to bring?
