    #724: Poch (implicitly) warns Cavan not to get cocky, Gio scores

    Cavan scores again. His enthusiasm for playing for the USMNT, and his liquid jaw in media appearances, maybe edge over into cockiness a bit for Poch, and the coach (without directly naming him) warned that young players who haven't proved much should put their heads down and work. Fascinating stuff. Vince and Sanjay talk it over. Also Gio scored, Sanjay believes Tyler Adams played well because he saw it online (Vince notes he was preyed upon by Harvey Barnes on his way to a banger), and much more. Skip the ads!

    #723: Mike Woitalla on a “defining moment” in American youth soccer

    U.S. Youth Soccer, the organization under which 2.5 million kids play across the country, will be integrated into U.S. Soccer. Doesn't seem too meaningful on its face but it's major news across the grassroots and development landscapes. Mike Woitalla, the executive editor of Soccer America, joins Belz to walk through it. J.T. Batson called it a "defining moment," but it turns out, as with many things, the defining moments will be the quiet ones, behind the scenes, over the next several years. Woitalla's piece on the topic: https://www.socceramerica.com/can-u-s-soccer-tame-the-wild-west-of-american-youth-soccer/ Skip the ads!

    #722: Balo to Everton crashes and burns
