Well, it’s a brand-new year, this is our first episode of 2024. And with that comes big things, big resolutions, big events happening, and overall, just a feeling of promise within American soccer. 

We ended the year with a bit of what we called controlled chaos as I was joined by two guests in Soccer Pints designer and contributor, Eric Paullin, and Charlotte FC’s assistant coach, Brian Edwards. 

Today is a big day though, depending on how you look at it. In a couple of hours, we will get the roster release for our annual January national team camp, commonly referred to as Camp Cupcake. I will be joining Gregg Berhalter and other media members for a conference call to discuss the roster and learn more around the decisions to bring certain players into this camp and really get a better understanding for the vision of the entire US program to start the year. 

So, for today’s episode, we aren’t going to look at that roster because it hasn’t been released yet and I don’t want to speculate on any potential call-ups at this point. We will record another episode to go over that roster release and will release that next week as well. 

But for today, we have quite a bit of things to discuss, including recent transfer news for several USMNT players now that the January transfer window is open. We are going to talk about the recent form of certain national teamers who just seem to be hitting stride week after week and improving consistently at the moment. And then we will bounce around and answer a question or two and give a final thought for the week before we wrap things up.
