Mauricio Pochettino has unlocked a new fire and desire in this pool of USMNT players; fighting for the badge, winning in style, and having flexibility in tactical approach. A star was born in Alex Freeman tonight, as the United States embarrassed Uruguay off the pitch.

Gio Reyna returned with a BANG for the USMNT, scoring an early goal and providing the spark for an injured American side in their victory over Paraguay. This video breaks down Pochettino's trust in the much maligned Reyna, and how the USA battled through a physical match to come out on top.

Gio Reyna is BACK! Mauricio Pochettino has named his November USMNT roster, and it's left more questions than answers. A big opportunity for Reyna, Scally, McKeznie and others to impress the manager and find their way into World Cup consideration in 2026.

I break down Sergiño Dest’s versatile role for PSV — and how his ability to play across multiple positions perfectly fits what Mauricio Pochettino wants from his USMNT fullbacks. From buildup to final third creativity, Dest continues to prove he’s the team’s ultimate Swiss Army knife.

I also take a closer look at Noahkai Banks’ latest performance for Augsburg, examining why he might not yet be ready for a World Cup–level call-up — but why his long-term upside remains sky-high.

Plus, a full Americans Abroad recap: injury updates on Christian Pulisic, Johnny Cardoso, and Malik Tillman, a look at Folarin Balogun’s latest goal, and more from another busy weekend for USMNT players across Europe.

Haji Wright and Cristian Roldan POWER Mauricio Pochettino's USMNT past Australia to finish off the manager's best camp since taking the reins. The tactical changes and inclusion of some new personnel have left difficult questions to answer for the U.S.A.'s manager.

The USMNT DOMINATED Ecuador, although only came away with a draw. In what was Mauricio Pochettino's most impressive match in charge of the United States, our players controlled the game with confidence. The combination of Folarin Balogun, Malik Tillman, and Tanner Tessmann led the the line in a battle of control, patience, and footballing IQ.

Gio Reyna made his long-awaited Borussia Mönchengladbach debut, and it showed exactly why the USMNT need him at the 2026 World Cup. In this video, I break down Reyna’s performance in detail, focusing on his decision-making, his “pass first, dribble second” style of play, and how he can continue to develop throughout the season.

Alongside Reyna’s debut, I also give a full American's Abroad update, including Tim Weah scoring at the Santiago Bernabéu against Real Madrid, Ricardo Pepi scoring a brace, and the latest performances from USMNT's stars making an impact across Europe.

Mauricio Pochettino’s USMNT just wrapped up the September camp, so naturally it’s time to look ahead to 2026. In this video, I run a full Bracketology, Who's in? Who's Out, tier ranking to see who’s helped or hurt their chances of making the United States Men's National Team World Cup roster.

From Christian Pulisic, Folarin Balogun, and Weston McKennie to big decisions around the USMNT midfield, striker depth, goalkeepers, and center backs, we break down every position battle. Who’s a lock? Who’s on the bubble? And which players are falling out of the 2026 picture?

The USMNT finally showed real progress in a convincing 2-0 win over Japan. Mauricio Pochettino adjusted the formation but stayed true to his tactical identity, and for the first time his ideas truly came to life. The team looked sharper in possession, more organized without the ball, and far more comfortable with roles that suited the players on the field.

In this breakdown, we look at how the formation shift unlocked the squad’s potential, why the balance finally felt right, and what this performance means moving forward. After weeks of frustration, the USMNT produced a display that felt like a genuine step in the right direction.

Mauricio Pochettino’s odd selections and misprofiling of his own players came back to haunt the USMNT in a brutal 2-0 loss to South Korea. From square pegs in round holes to baffling tactical choices, this was a display that exposed just how badly the manager misunderstood his squad. South Korea had no trouble exploiting the weaknesses, and the result was an embarrassing defeat that raised serious questions about Pochettino’s future in charge. In this breakdown, we dive into why the lineup never made sense, how the game unraveled, and what this performance reveals about the disconnect between the players and the system.
