    Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola break down the week’s Champions League through an American lens.

Gio Reyna is fighting his way back into the mix, but is Malik Tillman the better option right now (44:26)? Plus, the guys preview the U.S. Open Cup final as Austin FC and Nashville SC go head-to-head for silverware (52:52).

    Zendejas & Balogun score, Poch goes with back 3 | USMNT vs. Japan recap & reaction (Soccer 9/9)

    Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola recap the USMNT’s 2-0 win over Japan, a much-needed morale boost sealed by goals from Alejandro Zendejas and Folarin Balogun.

The Athletic’s Paul Tenorio joins to break down who helped (or hurt) their stock the most during September camp (08:05). The guys debate the MOTM (21:51), dig into the impact of Pochettino’s tactical shift (26:30), what it means for the roster moving forward (30:45), and how to judge his first year in charge of the USMNT (46:47).
