As the USMNT prepare for their quarterfinal matchup against Costa Rica, we discuss the elements of this team that we're most intrigued by. Can Freese really win the #1 job? Can Tim Ream reestablish himself as a starting CB for World Cup '26? Can Johnny Cardoso really play for Atletico Madrid but not the US' B-Team?

Plus, we compare the transfer windows thus far for the Premier League's 3 leading title contenders - Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal. And finally, we analyze Brazil's standout Club World Cup as well as Argentina's disastrous one.

ALSO: Head on over to Caught Offside Plus where we just released a really fun food-centric episode inspired by the hot and wild takes of Weston McKennie and Tim Weah.
