Two games down. Two games to go. We're halfway through this current international break, so Taylor called up Extratime's David Gass to get his thoughts on the present USMNT. What do we want to see in these next two games, who has already secured their spot on the World Cup roster, and who is currently on the outside looking in? Plus, we break down the performances of some of the MLS players on the current US roster, and discuss what they need to do to improve their game between now and when coach Gregg Berhalter makes his roster official. Players discussed in particular detail include Christian Roldan, DeAndre Yedlin, Aaron Long, Walker Zimmerman, Kellyn Acosta, Jesus Ferreira, Paul Arriola, and Jordan Morris.
