Champions League Chaos, Tim Weah’s Dream Night & Should USMNT Stay With the Back 3?
Description
The Champions League delivered absolute madness this week. Ricardo Pepi endured a disappointing outing for PSV, while Weston McKennie’s Juventus clash with Dortmund turned into an eight-goal thriller. Over in Madrid, Tim Weah scored his first goal with his new club Marseille and made history with the first-ever USMNT goal at the Bernabéu. Is Timmy the USMNT’s best player right now? Elsewhere, Yunus Musah faced PSG’s firepower, Liverpool escaped Atletico at Anfield, and Bayern put Chelsea in their place.
We also check in on USMNT Abroad, Chris Richards stepping up in Palace’s Carabao Cup win, Josh Sargent on finding his rhythm with the national team, and Quinn Sullivan’s stunner in the U.S. Open Cup. To wrap the show, the guys discuss the USMNT’s back 3 formation, Stu’s Starting XI for the next window, and big-picture questions on Pochettino’s first year with the USMNT.
