Who will Mauricio Pochettino pick to represent the United States at the 2026 World Cup? We go over the predicted World Cup roster on Episode 187.

For 26 players, their dreams are set to become reality as they are named to the World Cup roster on Tuesday. We go through the predicted roster group by group, offering takes on why some of the players will be included as well as some of the players that will miss the cut. Some players are easier to predict than others, and we discuss how some players are included over the guys that miss the cut.

We also get you ready for the World Cup by giving a brief overview of what to expect from the pod over the coming two months. There will be a LOT of content coming your way, so hit up our social media to ask questions about the World Cup, the host cities, and everything else!
