"The first two hours of the playoff. I would care way more if it was a 70 -game season and they had this tournament Oh, I definitely think there's too much basketball and they should have done this in conjunction with shaving off games, for sure. But I think that we are underrating what's going to happen if it's like, oh, the Warriors and the Pacers are in the finals and it's just like one game and Carlisle can just throw the kitchen sink and like, is Steph going to play 45 minutes or is it going to be like, I think it's going to be fascinating. Or somebody ruptures their achilles or tears a knee and people are like, this blood is on Adam Silver's hands. Yes, we're going to get that. We're going to have that. That could be that scenario, too. I think that you're going to be into it. If the Celtics are in the Final Four of this thing, you're going to be into it. Yeah, tell me what the stakes are. Also, it's kind of cool in England when they do these cups in the Premier League or in the entire country, participates in them pretty much. In the opening rounds, it's usually like the really young players are playing. Yeah. So you're going to get like the Peyton Prichard -led Celtics, maybe, in the early rounds of this. And it might be kind of like, oh, it's kind of fun. Like the U .S. men's soccer team when we played that country. I didn't even know it was a country. And then we had guys out there I'd never heard of. Women's World Cup, scale of one to 10. How excited are you? Oh, like eight. I love tournament football. It's great. Yeah, I can't wait. I'm like a 10. Yeah. I love the Women's World Cup, but Alyssa's playing this year. I mean, she went to my son's high school. She was the greatest high school soccer player, at least of the last 20 years. It's kind of wide open this year because England, who's one of the favorites, has had a bunch of injuries. So they're, they're kind of, they're really under, uh, short -handed. So it's going to be like a pretty exciting tournament. And it seems like our women's team is caught between two eras. They haven't really gotten rid of, uh, you know, the Wambach generation. They're still kind of lingering, but they should really be ushering in this new generation. I think that, I think Alyssa has a chance to become a, like a real thing. A big player. Yeah. I can't figure out if they're actually going to play her. Like for the people listening who don't know, like she's, there's like, not Tiger Woods potential, but really there's, Alyssa Thompson has a chance to be the best women's player we've ever had. Yeah. I think that's in play, right? That's fair. Yeah. It's actually a pretty cool time for both of those national teams because the USMNT, the men have introduced this guy, Florian Balgun, who's from Arsenal. This guy. Yeah. Yeah. What are you talking about? I watch all those games. I texted you during a game you weren't even watching. Yeah. It was like a Saturday night. It's my team. I'm sorry. I'm patriotic. But yeah, they have, the men's team has actual speed and skill now in like a crazy way. If you'd showed this team to you 20 years ago, you'd have been like, what's going on? What country is this? But Dave actually seems to have like fully, like you're talking about in between eras. I feel like they are finally starting to like shake off the last era. And it's like, this is Pulisic. Just with the old coach. McKinney. Yeah. Well, that's Gio Reyna's problem, not ours. Well, they still have Pulisic doing the corner kicks until that ends. until our national nightmare ends. I'm just telling you, like, I know you don't like that, but it's not like he would, he is not like a goal threat on headers. I just like if they could get in the box. That'd be nice. You're not with me on this? I just think that he, that's the function he serves because of like what he's good at. okay. Yeah. Disagree. Okay. Um, we're good at soccer. It seems like. Yeah. It's coming home. The cups, where the next cup plays. So that's gonna be really fun. Can't wait. I'm also excited for the Olympic basketball next year. Are you going to watch the world cup? Did you see the world cup team? The, the FIBA world cup team. Oh, our team. And it's like, it's like Villanova plus like, yeah, it's awesome. There's some fun. I was messing around with like some fun lineups. I was getting excited about, and I was like, Oh, I'm going to enjoy this. It seems like they're, they're one offense. First guy, too many. But other than that, I kind of like the message. I can't tell who's playing for the other teams. It seems like jokers playing for Serbia. Yeah. Oh wow. I mean, that's, I don't know for a fact, but that was the word in the street. That'd be really cool. So that'd be fun. Yeah. Or he might not show up. It's like Josh Hart and Galen Brunson are on this FIBA team, right? Palo. Yeah. Austin Reeves, my guy. Oh, that's right. That's right. That's who it was. Who was, I was like, Oh yeah, this is fun. I had some Laker fans give me shit, fit people in my life about like, Oh, Austin Reeves, four for 98, huh? He took a little less, didn't he? I'm like, it's not my fault the league is stupid. Like Kuzma gets one Oh two cam Johnson gets one Oh eight. Awesome. Reeves gets 56. He's not as good as those guys. Space Jam three or something like, you know, as like, I think he's under, under the table. I just wouldn't be surprised if he had a spring Hill development deal in the works. The Austin Reeves story, a 10 part docu series, the last dance. All right. See our Eagles prediction before we go, like just for the season, like if they don't win the super bowl, is it a loss for you? No, because I think while it will be sad to see Kelsey and those guys not get another ring or whatever, I think that this is a team built for the future. What does that mean? I mean, look, look, we have the entire Georgia defense plus Devante, like Jalen, like all the guys we have are like entering their prime, not, not out of it. What is the over under for wins for you guys? I'm looking this up now. 12. Is it 12? I don't know. 11 and a half.

"Me. I mean, I am just all in on how good this football team are. I'm not just all good. I've always known how good they are. I'm all in on just the beauty of the football they play. I just kiss it. I think it's just outstanding and gorgeous. But I think they deserve a lot of credit and we're right to focus and especially with your personal connection, we're so right to focus on Championship Sunday on the foot of the table and the relegation of the battle. But the reason that this whole league has weight, the reason that there is air in this balloon is ultimately because somebody goes out and wins it and that is Manchester City. I want to close with a toast to Dortmund. I want to raise this shot of Jägermeister, this bolt of human emotion in a shot glass to all Dortmund fans. I feel for you so very deeply. No Erling Haaland and yet you come so close to glory. For the first time in 11 years, you could touch it. You could taste it. You marched to the game. You filled that delirious stadium with noise and hope and dreams only to flail at the last. Despite the fleeting hope provided by Gio Reyna who was a true catalyst when he came on. Dortmund, beautiful Dortmund fell impotently, shocked, dropped at home to nothing to play for Mainz. Handing Bayern Munich, that footballing Augustus Gloop who, though weakened and in chaos, won their 11th straight Bundesliga title. Under the crucible of pressure, your players wilted. The agony of this self -destruction will last a long, long time. But just know, it could always be worse. You could support Everton. And in that way, we learn there are no heroes in life, David. The monsters always win. Before we go, Roger, a quick reminder about everything we've got happening at Men in Blazers this week. Powered by Bud Light, easy to drink, easy to enjoy.

"Some money. All right, welcome to drop the bag, your ultimate sports betting guide. Are you ready to score big on this week's most exciting games, whether you're a fan of league on making MLS or any competition on this earth, vamos, we got you covered. All right, first game on the docket, Bundesliga. Dortmund boriso Dortmund versus glad back, that would be Gio reyna versus his best friend, Joe scaly, two U.S. men's national team World Cup veterans now. That sounds crazy to say, these kids are so young. But listen, the Bundesliga is tied at the top. Bayern Munich and Dortmund appoint from each other buying up by one 65 points. Dortmund 6 games undefeated in all comps, they scored 14 goals in their last four games. So this one is easy for me. I am going to go with a parlay here. It's a three pick par lay, and it's the Dortmund money line, so dormant has to win. Both teams to score because yes, I do feel glad that we'll get their goal. And an over of 3.5 goals and that's going to pay you plus one 60. I've already told you this team Dortmund. They like to score 14 goals in the last four games. Geo Reina is somebody I hope gets on the field to face his best friend Joe scally Gio has 6 goals and 561 minutes. He is good for a goal. If you get him on the field. So let's get him on the field and let's cash that bat. All right, back down to the states. Oh man, this one's gonna hurt my G's. This one is going to hurt. It's el Cali classical time. In the state of California, in Carson, California to be exact on Sunday, the galaxy will face off versus the San Jose earthquakes, and they are mess. And that and that reason only, I'm going to pick the San Jose earthquakes to win, and both to score and that pays a surprising plus four 75. Plus four 75. It's a lot of money. Listen, I've mentioned the galaxy RMS only one win all year. There are toothless up front, only 8 goals scored in ten matches. Lots of problems within the club and that fan base. It's not a great atmosphere at these games at the moment, the fans still haven't come back. I know what you're gonna say. Angel city brigade, all that stuff relax, we'll get into that in future episodes. Teams have lost respect for the galaxy. They no longer fear them and luchi Gonzalez has his team playing well. And he's created an MVP candidate in Christian Espinosa. He's at an MVP level right now. The Argentine forward 8 calls three assists, leads MLS in that category. So that's an easy one for me. All right, this is not so easy. I had to make a tough decision. The next bet. Let's go to La Liga. It's Valencia versus celta de Vigo. That is Eunice Musa versus Luca Della Torre of the U.S. men's nationals in two U.S. players facing off and what is for sale to a way to get up in the standings may be better they're standing better than morale, try to make a push for conference league if you will and younes Musa and Valencia just had dumpster fire of a year trying to avoid relegation. This one's easy. It's sell to the Viggo money line. They just have to win in 90 minutes and it plays plus one 25 valencian Eunice Musa are there in serious problems. They currently sit in 17th place. They've lost the last 9 out of ten away games. They don't play well away from home, so I'm taking Luca in this one and said that a Viggo. All right, this one is going to hurt somebody. Somebody is going to really feel this one. Let's go to the Premier League for Chelsea versus Nottingham Forest. And this one I couldn't even pick a winner. I don't know who to pick. It's Christian Pulisic. If Christian Pulisic can get on the field, Christian Pulisic who is healthy nava can't play under Frank Lampard versus the Concacaf legend himself, a Champions League winner, the Costa Rican, gaylor navis, and Nottingham Forest, who by the way need this game. Kayla navis and Forrest are three points out of the drop zone, they can't afford not to get something out of this game. Christian Pulisic and Chelsea, they're sitting mid table right now. They can't score goals. I don't know why Christian pussy can't get on the field. Chelsea being they can't score goals. So I'm going to go with this one. It's Chelsea versus not in forest under 1.5 goals for Chelsea. I don't think they score two goals. They may win this game, they may tie this game. I don't think they score two goals, especially not playing Christian Pulisic. Those are my four picks for drop the bag. If you want to parlay them, you sickos. If you want to do that because I know producer Juan is all about that, that pays a whopping plus 7468. So if you bet $10, you're gonna come away with $756 and 84 cents. We've done the math for you. So whether you're a seasoned better or just starting out, we have you covered. Vamos. Entrepreneur Phil knight started a company called blue ribbon sports on the strength of what he called a crazy idea that American joggers needed better running shoes, and that they'd pay top dollar to get them.

"Saturday. They're playing Sheffield United out of the championship. I mean, Manchester City, massive, huge, overwhelming favorite. That game starts 1145 a.m. Eastern Time. So we're taking city money on, right? A safe way to start the parlay. Then, at 1230, Eastern Time, right? So 45 minutes after man city starts against Sheffield United, we go to the boon this league, where we got Dortmund against eintracht Frankfurt, I'm taking the over two and a half goals. Maybe we'll get some help there from somebody like Gio reyna. Maybe we'll get some help there from somebody like Paxton aronson. Reasons to watch. So we got the over two and a half Bundesliga tilt between dormant and Frankfurt. Then, you get through Saturday, everything covers. Why are you gonna come back Sunday? IX PSV. Whatever you wanna say about IX defense or I see goals in this game, I see lots of them to your point about the Mexican internationals, plenty of reasons to watch. We got hits and we got Jorge Sanchez. We got guti and these two teams usually do pretty well. Over two and a half there. So you combine all that, it's not plus 700. It's plus one 57, but you got a real good chance of making it to Sunday morning with a sweat, and that's what we're looking for. What do you think? You go for some goals, I see it in city winning the always be goals there. I'm digging my plus 700 a little more. Okay. All right, we'll see. We'll see whose financial advice gets you further. All right, that'll do it for this edition of football America. Why don't you show us that beautiful shirt hurt before we get out of here? We already know it's a beautiful shirt. Why don't you show me where you work? Yeah, right, exactly. Remember these jackets, they gave it, they gave us these jackets when we went to Russia. I don't think we wore them once. Well that's because it was like a 130° in Russia and they gave us this jacket. I don't get it. But by the way, you criticize me. I love mother earth. Shout out to earth week. We will be back on Monday and tab Ramos. Who's managing now in the USL with Hartford athletic will be bi for a live interview, of course. They're in the open cup as well.

"Three. Who needed it more? And I got answer, huh? Yeah, you got to answer. Go ahead. This one for me is just like the U.S. men's national team. The choice is very obvious and it's very obvious for the same reasons because when I think of who needs something, I think who's desperate, right? And just like Gio reyna's desperate at Dortmund, I think we can say Jorge Sanchez is in a desperate place at Ajax. Part of that herc is down to his form. I will admit that Jorge Sanchez has not been perfect. Has not been great since he got to ix. And because of that, he needed a goal an assist and a good performance. Beyond that, herc, because he's a foreign player playing on the biggest team in the Netherlands, he gets criticized a lot for his performances at right back. So this is a guy who is under the microscope from the Dutch media. We've seen we've had some shots fired segments on this very show about what people are saying about Jorge Sanchez. And finally, hook has sent us to me as the guy who in the national team picture faces the most competition at his position. I think right back from Mexico irk is actually at three's deepest position. Right now for me Jorge Sanchez is number one on the depth chart. But we know Kevin auburn is a great player who might end up in Europe. And we know Juliana Rao is just getting talked up by shavi as potentially being a player for Barcelona in the not too distant future. So Jorge Sanchez needs good performances, not just for his club level, but for his international spot as well. Tell me I'm wrong. You're not wrong. He also is desperate. I will give you that. Let me make a case to why it's Santiago Jimenez. And that's going to sound crazy. Just scored his 19th goal in Europe coming off of 5 goals that he scored includes a suit before he left. But Santi Jimenez right now, this son to Jimenez who leads Mexican players in gold scored on a higher scale in Europe isn't a clear cut number one in the hearts and

"That a look at you taking shots? At every time. You head over there. I love that kid. Just started. Here on football Americas. All right, hurt. Which of the U.S. men's national team players that we just saw in run it back most needed their big performance on the weekend? Josh Sargent. I don't even think it's close. I mean, go back to last window, the nation's league window when everybody's talking. Flow, flow flow, float here, flow there. He's coming. Everybody forgot about Josh Sargent. And it Ricardo puppies back in the mix and Ricardo says, you know what? I'm tired about listening to about flow. I'm here too. You're concentrating on following ball again, and you're concentrating on Ricardo peppy. Josh Sargent sergeant, excuse me, will remind people that he's still here. He's still in my eyes. As of today, the player in this pool up top is the most talented. He's the most talented 9 for my money input. Before the World Cup, before the World Cup, he was on a tear, 8 goals. In Norwich, playing finally in a central position, scoring some goals, post World Cup. It's been something else. He has struggled, and then he got injured. So this was vital. This was important. This was a necessity to remind players to remind people to remind the coaches. I'm still here. All right, I didn't go with Josh sergeant. I went with Gio reyna, but on Josh sergeant's point, I think it's fair, right? 'cause it's the number 9 position. So it's maybe not the deepest in terms of quality, but in terms of guys who you legit feel like could get that job. It is the most competitive and it's the most important open position in the team. So anybody who scores sergeant Pepe that is going to help their stock, especially when I think the reality at that position, herc is when or if balagan commits, he immediately goes to number one on the depth chart, right? And everybody right now who's playing knows that's the reality. So you have this time before he commits to kind of put yourself at the top of the heap or at least in that conversation because once balin commits her, I think he's number one on the depth chart. And I think you're going to have a really tough time. Whoever the manager is, keeping him out of the starting lineup. Even if he hasn't played a single minute for the national team. I think it's illogical to think somebody's already written in if they've not ever played. But the sentiment, what you're saying is absolutely right. I think the majority of people and even the players feel that way. And hell, even for any valid and is going to feel that way if he's committing. That's just a reality of things. So I understand where you're coming from that. Since we're talking number 9, probably worth shouting out Daryl DK. Unfortunately, the Achilles injury playing for West Brom. He was a guy who was playing well. So unfortunately, he seems a little bit snake bit. The injuries just keep cropping up for him at the wrong time. For me, I thought when you said this is real obvious, it's not close. I thought you were gonna say Gio reyna, because we talk about giovanna Dortmund a lot. And of all the guys that we've discussed, the only one who's playing time mark is not guaranteed is Gio rain. In fact, the only guarantee right now for Gio reyna Dortmund is that his talent as much as you say it is and we all know it is, is not enough to get him on the field at that position. He's got to be more productive. So when he gets a goal, the first one for him since early February at a position and at a club where he is way down the depth chart, that's huge to me because we've already seen it, even his productivity earlier in this year didn't really lead to more playing time. I hope this goal leads to more playing time because still at the end of the day, I'm not convinced that dormant right now is the best place for Gio reyna. I mean, look at the best place when he signed, look at the best place the first few years, but the way things have gone post World Cup, you can make a real argument he needs to look elsewhere. Yeah. All right, so Georgia there with a goal, what would we say is 6th in league play for Borussia Dortmund? Let's keep it in the Bundesliga. Because the team that Dortmund is chasing atop the table had their own stumble. Buyer and drawing one one against hoffenheim. That's right, John Brooks went the full 90 playing in the middle of a back three. Andre came rich in the 71st minute there to make it one one. And

That's not Robyn 'cause Robyn's number two. He's clearly the number one in this one life. It's a great catch and release. It's very quick, keeper never sees it coming, and then look at this.

"Dip where Davies is concerned. It's all relative. I mean, he's a very good player. It's natural that players are going to just drop off a little bit. And I think he has done in certain games, but you're right, he still has been the player of choice on that left hand side, and he's still going to do things that most other players are not capable of doing. As I say, cancel is interesting because I think the expectation was you're going to bring him in and he's going to play an awful lot, but hasn't really fired so far. But yeah, Davies will start this game. I'm sure of that on Saturday against Dortmund. And I'm sure Thomas Tuchel is very much looking forward to working with the Canadian. Yeah, Davies usually a lock to be in the starting lineup for. On the other side of this game, not so much. Obviously, there was so much drama around this player after the World Cup. We focused a lot on that drama and the narrative around the player. How significant were those talks in Germany? Did people pay attention to that storyline when giovanna returned from the World Cup? I think people were shocked to hear what had happened, but it would be wrong to say that it was ever the dominant Dortmund story. There's a lot going on at Dortmund. It's not quite the soap opera, that Bayern is, but it's a close second in German terms. And yeah, it made news, but most of my German colleagues who I spoke to about this and even with the more recent news following what came out of U.S. soccer that was sort of a shrug of the shoulders. Let's have to say all that. That's just strange. You know, we've never really heard of a case like this in German football. But Gio reyna has not been front and center in terms of a story here in Germany. So it's not like with American

I mean, this is where I'm sure we've had these conversations in so many leagues like if that's getting reversed for that foul before June Endo gets the ball. I think we've taken it a little bit too far. Like that doesn't even look like a foul, it didn't get called in the run at play and then a minute later after that goal to have that go under the hood and be called back, I think is an overstep, really, it feels like. Her definitely thought it was an overstep. I was one of the people that booth. All right, let's focus on the senior international level, Jeff, while we have you here, because U.S. soccer announcing today that tomorrow, they're going to drop the U.S. women's national team's April roster. Give us some of the key things that you'll be looking out for tomorrow in that roster drops. Yeah, I mean, look, I think this is first last international window before the World Cup before we get the World Cup roster, send off game and then they head off to the World Cup. So a little bit unique from previous cycles where there's a big gap there that's gonna put a lot of emphasis on league play. You know, Sophia Smith obviously we've seen now is healthy again and is back from missing the early part of the year with the U.S.. So I think that'll be obviously a welcome sign to pair her up with mouse Swanson who's been on fire so far for the U.S. and in her debut with the red stars this season. So I think that's a big one. Tuna Davidson obviously was in training camp for she believes just as a training camp player for part of it. Is she back in the picture? She's obviously played for the red star so you'd expect so. So I think that this is the one where we've been talking about these injuries. We've been monitoring cat macario as one, I think maybe the big one that we've been waiting for and she hasn't really seen time yet in France. So what does that look like and what does that mean? For any of these players, what does it mean if they're not in in April, right? And we've talked about this because there are no more windows. So if you're vlatko, then you're looking at, okay, well, of course, this is a talented player whoever it is. I want them in. I want them in for the World Cup, but then you're relying on that club form and getting them in for a couple of weeks before the World Cup, which I think is a really tall order in a lot of intangible ways to reintegrate a player. All right, there he is, Jeff kasuf, great stuff is always safe travels back home. You can catch his work, obviously at ESPN dot com equalizer soccer as well. Jeff, thanks as always for the time. Great to have you with us here on popola America. Great to be here. The classic earth. This Saturday on ABC Dorman one point ahead of Bayern Munich atop the Bundesliga.

"The one thing of note from this game was that Anthony Hudson and who knows how long he will be the manager for. Had the U.S. come out in a four two three one. So it was a double pivot. With Luca Della Torre, who struggled a little bit defensively. And Weston mckenney deep and Gio reyna as the number ten, rayna was mostly invisible. There were a couple of times where I thought Christian Pulisic could maybe have played him in and chose not to. So that was, you know, trying to suss out if there are any chemistry issues was part of the fun of watching this game, but most of the fun was watching the U.S. score a touchdown in an extra point. Ricardo peppy had a couple, you know, a bunch of guys made their debuts. Zendaya, as you mentioned, there's a baller, he's officially cap tied. There were a few other guys who were officially capit in this one as well. Guys. Taylor booth. And Taylor booth was a dual national. He could have played for Italy, but he chose the U.S.. That's great. That's great. Booth, the Italian international. It was, it was fun to watch them get on the field again. And of course, they'll be on the field once again tonight in Orlando, recording this on Monday. So if you're listening to it on Tuesday or watching it on Tuesday, that'll be last night in Orlando. The U.S. on the field. What might be more interesting is who will be in the stands. Follow in balagan. U.S. English and I think Ghanaian or is he Nigerian descent? Try national. He's played for both the U.S. and English youth national teams, much more for England. In fact, these provisionally cap tied to England. Which means if he is going to represent the U.S.,

"Rafa marques used to do a lot with Barcelona and the Mexican national team at times. So I would explore that option, but I don't think you have anybody that's alike for life for Tyler Adams. All right, let's get to the $1 million question, shall we? 'cause I see you've put geo Rena in your starting lineup. It makes a lot of sense, right? Especially with Tim wea, a late injury scratch because of the concussion concerns. If we was in this camp with rain and still be a starter, yeah, he would for me. Over Tim way, really. Well. Listen, Jill rain is a starter in my mind in any lineup for the U.S. min's nationally. I think it's sealing that big. The situation with Jill rain has never been about his quality. It's never been about the actual play. It's been about Jill rayna staying fit and the fiasco he had at the World Cup. Was him acting out like a petulant child and they worked through those problems. The players Jill raina and Perl accounts for all the reports. They moved on from it. It was the adults that didn't move on. It was his parents, The Rain as it was the burr halters and that drama and how he got sucked in. So now he's in this situation where Jill Reina, if he's in this lineup, the only worry I have is a psyche because that's a lot. How he will be treated, how he thinks he may be treated on the field or by his teammates or the insecurities that come with it, but Jill Rayne just talent alone of these healthy. He's at any line of you can possibly think of for the U.S. national team. And also multiple positions because per Paul tenario. He's been deployed as a center midfielder in this camp. Yeah, so it was interesting, right? Because I think maybe after the World Cup, when you started looking at Gio reyna, coming and playing it dormant, you were like, all right, he's on fire. But then basically there's been nothing but DNP since then, almost like from red hot to ice cold. Is this a player? And as a former player, I'm kind of surprising you say this that like independent of form. He has to play. Well, I don't think forms ever been an issue with Jill reign. It's been injury. I mean, would you, can you think of it right now? Yeah, in the last month or so, right? In the last month or so, he's been fit. He's been on the bench, but he's been an unused sub. So he's available, but not playing. That to me would suggest a dip in form certainly after the hot start when he came back from the World Cup. What you're saying is, this guy's so good that even when his forms down, you got a plan. Yeah, you're saying it's for him. I don't think it's a dip in form. I think there's something else there, either something that at Dortmund they think it's physical. Independent of even playing time, he should play. If he's healthy, he's in my lineup at this concave level, absolutely. If you're thinking because after scoring three goals, he didn't crack the lineup of four at games for borus Dortmund who were the hottest team in the world at the time. I think they've only lost once since the new year that that excludes him from a Concacaf lineup. But I think Giovanni Reina and his ceiling are an any lineup you can think of for the U.S. national team. All right, whether it's out wide or in midfield, we shall see. What about the number 9 position? Only two real number 9s target guys in this camp, Darrell DK and Ricardo peppy. You went with peppy and his goals in the air to visit over DK and his goals in the championship. Why? Listen, Ricardo puppy's already been part of this program and he's been an important player in this program. You should have been to Qatar. You should have gone to Qatar. Let's start there. He's a player that actually the first window safe burger bulger's job. He's a player that comes out against Honduras, changes the face of this game, goes from being a

"We can't hire Frank burr halter. That might be end up being the opinion of the new sporting director, but again, they don't want to back themselves into a corner and say, you have to do this, do we have to do that? Yeah, I believe this is USR kind of washing their hands of this. Like, let the sporting director decide, even though seriously, Greg berhalter may not even be a candidate for the sporting director, I don't know the legalities of it. I'm not going to presume to know law international law or what's going on in this specific moment and if Greg berhalter has any legal case against U.S. soccer or the Reina's themselves, I won't presume that, but it does seem like U.S. soccer is doing everything they can to just smooth the situation and let sporting director handle it. Yeah, I think it's pretty clear that's the case. Now speaking of The Rain and those are the legal ramifications that we've been trying to get into this last two questions. But what about Jeff regarding backlash? How do you envision the backlash is going to look like for the arenas in the near future or in the long term as well? I mean, I think the backlash is pretty intense. I think there's just general disbelief that they would engage in this kind of behavior. I mean, Gio reyna has talent has been recognized since he was a youngster. Whether it was in as early as deep soccer days, whether it was when he was with NYCFC, Borussia Dortmund and so on. And I myself and just stunned that they would go to these lengths. To clear the path for

"Who had impressed when coming off the bench but struggled when he started games and he had a big chance at Stanford bridge and didn't take it. But I think we need to take into account here. Dortmund don't have the same strength in depth as buy in and I think the injuries are really getting to them. The fact that Julian Brandt went off so early in that Chelsea gaming is now out of not just this game, but the cologne game next week. Marco Royce is a doubt for this one with a particularly heavy cold, Carrie Maddie Jamie won't play in this, but will be an option perhaps or a theme for the next game, whatever that means. According to so particularly going forward, Borussia Dortmund have problems and I actually even think right now, Kay, that Schalke, given the form they come into this game in, unbeaten in 6 and winning their last two, I make them slight favorites. I think the momentum is with them. Oh wow, well, talk to us actually a little bit about the Gio reyna situation there because he's been singled out for criticism when it comes to some of the marks that the papers are giving as well. And as you just mentioned there, it appears that this season or at least in this calendar year, he's been more effective and better as a sub off the bench. He has, I think, we need to remember the context of giovanna's year, not just what happened at the World Cup with him, which is well documented, but also the string of injuries and what that would have done to his confidence last season. And I think that when he's come off the bench, he seemed a lot more focused and he's got a clarity in terms of what he needs to do. And he brings the necessary urgency. And when he started games, I don't think he's

"Let's put that to the side for a second. But is it normal against Leipzig last Friday? They were dominating the game they were winning the game easily and then they got a little conservative in the second half and towards the end of the match, playing against ten men in Leipzig, they were hanging on, giving up chances late. My concern today we will lose a dorm in separate from the very beginning of the game. You're seeing a defensive posture that is not what they do best and it's not what they feel most comfortable doing. So embrace I'm getting in between the two center backs and between Nicolas sula and Nico schlatter and forfeiting some space and allowance of space in the middle of midfield for Chelsea that Chelsea could attack. And those spaces in which Kai harvest was getting into, that's exactly where usually I'm there. Well, he wasn't there today because he was in between the two center backs. That is not what they do. What is the doorman doesn't defend well? It's in a defensive posture. They're not comfortable. So I don't quite understand why the conservative nature of the approach, but we saw the better version of what is a dormant and the one that we have been seen in Bundesliga in 2023, once they gave up the second goal. And you saw a reaction for the next ten, 15 minutes. If I'm at intersect, and I'm this team, I'm looking at myself, we are not the sort of team that is good enough defensively in the best case situation to actually hang on to a result. It's hand side 2020. But the truth of the matter is that this team would have been better off at the very least trying to attack Chelsea from the very beginning and force Chelsea to defend, not allow Chelsea, all the freedom that they did in the first half. I'll concern obviously was extra time because we didn't want to stay late today. And then you said, don't worry. Dortmund can't score it when scoring a million years here. We thought it was going to be a kiss of death. Belly on. Bellingham does that challenge that he just scoffed. Someone that build up play after the penalty as the boys mentioned was pretty good and slick, and then it all sort of fell apart at the end, be it Chelsea good defending our poor final ball. Look, Darwin wanted a never of a better chance of beating a club like Chelsea who have had success in the Champions League at this period. There were fragile, the managers under pressure, the struggle up front, they had injuries, you know, obviously they've got players coming back now. And all these things were later apart for British adult men to go and just not let Chelsea say though. And the field, I don't care how Borussia Dortmund are playing in Germany. Barista Dortmund gave me chances. They will give you chances and recent history and it's one of the reasons not the only one. One of the reasons they don't and haven't challenged for the Bundesliga all the way right to the end. The challenge and then it's fallen away. Might be a different this year. I don't know. We'll see. But then they always give you chances. And Chelsea, the question was over the last few days, a child is going to be able to take them. I thought Dortmund would have went through. But she also got the job done. How much of a missed opportunity was this for Dortmund Yan? Yeah, they will see that is hard to get out, because, well, yes, the defense has been failing them for some seasons, especially when they have had hummels there and some different partners. They have a new partnership with slots that they can see there. It has been playing better in the Bundesliga, one of the reasons they have got results to that goal. But it's also yes, they will give you chances, but it's also you saw it today that the limited alternatives they have going forward as well. Sebastian Laird, we know who is illness. We know how what a great day. It was when he came back and scored for them. You couldn't see him today. He's not a top fit number 9. You have modest that certified that it got into replace other. They didn't even put him on today when they were desperate for a goal. So you could imagine how long a way back he is in a peaking order. Then you have Marlin who never seems to be good enough for the Bundesliga. It never seems to be good enough for Borussia Dortmund when he came for a big transfer fee. But I think at the end, you couldn't feel let's go. You could feel that Royce could get a chance and he could get there was a chance at the end also. There was a shot for 12 yards. We went down to walls. I mean, there will be 8 other players you would like to have in that situation, especially especially a Royce, but they were not good enough. They're losing balls today. That was not a good performance. And I think that if they're on this with himself over two games even them have to say that the server will be knocked out by as Craig is saying by a Chelsea team that not supposed to win those kind of games. From an American perspective, of course, Gio reyna had its opportunity with bran going off so early, didn't really take it, did he Yan? No, and it was a paradox that you've seen rain I go off of that kind of injury that Julian Brandt got so many times where you wish to get him on, then you could pull us the J and then you got all the American royal players in the game. So he had an okay Chancellor at the end, but sometimes there is with Dortmund. In 2023, they managed to get more constants in the team. They may have been more stable, but you just feel that right now is a symbol of when you need someone when the goal is get tough. You need someone to take the next step and Reiner had a chance from the 5th minute today. And to be honest, he couldn't take his chance. And there were all completed about the penalty. The retaking of the retaking. And I think that was the gist of the complaints at the end. But when you have VR, when a player encroaches into the D and when that player is the one it clears the ball away from the penalty off the post,

He has to be diligent and patient. Does he hurt? What do you think? Far more alarm. Alarm alarm alarm. Listen, Giovanni is a Giovanni Reina is an insane talent. That's not up for debate.

First is he's not necessarily the most fit player in the last year. He's had fitness issues, okay? They have disclosed how they're taking it slow with them. And that has been constant throughout their communication with fans and pundits. He had three straight games where he comes off the bench and scores a goal.

"In a World Cup when it's a 100° outside. Yeah, and I think that's the thing too is like some of us have been kind of confused with these starting lineups and I'm sure we could talk about it if we want now like why guys like Gio reyna and Brennan aaronson aren't really playing the amount of errands and not starting geo playing like what, 7 or 8 total minutes in the tournament. I think you could argue that aaronson is the best informed player of any U.S. player in the world right now and the geo, you know, you could argue he's the most talented U.S. player. He was on, I think number three on the list of under 23 guys coming into the World Cup and he doesn't I think the word on the street is he's banged up. He said he was a 100% though like he's been injured on and off for Dortmund for the last couple of months and the injuries have been pretty bad, but this has been the one off field distraction really kind of looming over the U.S. team is this rain a thing. And there's been talk that pearl hall isn't like feeling him, but bro all there's just like, it's not that. I'm just protecting him from getting injured. It just gets into when you bring this team along. It's like, and you bring any guys with you to a World Cup who are injury risks and you're trying to like, quote unquote protect them, you have to wonder whether or not that. Roster spot could have been used on somebody more useful. You mean, like how we have three goalies. And then a guy who they're afraid of. People usually bring three. No, I know. I'm just going to the rust or spot. And then all of a sudden, it leads to Shaq bore playing the last 20 minutes of two pretty crucial games. That's my favorite part of it is we have four strikers, I believe, on the roster. None of which we have any confidence in. None. We have four right backs. One of which keeps obviously desk is good, but Jack Moore keeps coming in for some reason despite repeated evidence that at the moment just way too big for him, period. I guess we talked about this before the tournament on the pod I do with Paul Carr. I don't think that like Ricardo peppy being on this roster. Some people got all worked up about that, but I don't think that changes the ceiling or the floor of the scene. I just don't think we have a striker we can trust. So the question is, why don't you just go like MBA style and just put your 5 best guys out there, put your four or three best attacking players out there and have them figure it out. The answer is Greg berhalter, his system, he just he plays with the center forward and a striker and he's just not going to go off of that plan. So that's why we see Josh sergeant just run around for 70 minutes, not really accomplish a ton. CR was calling for the false 9 with pool sick. No, I was actually, I want we up the middle. And I don't know why. I don't know why he, I mean, obviously he prefers playing off the striker role and like playing in the channels and a little bit more on that wing slide, but I think if you move we had a 9, you can bring aronson in and dick Clinton Dempsey was talking about this too. I'm not inventing anything there, but if you can bring aaronson into the starting lineup, if you move we at the 9, I think that that I think what Burrell hader wants to do with bringing in aronson is that that's his like Trump card to bring in at 60 minutes. It's first when McKenzie starts. It's his Trump card to bring in one of his 7 best players. If you hope so. If you're playing three matches in 8 days in the desert, you wanna have like a second gear that can happen in the second half. We'll bring them in at halftime. Right. Well, typically, it's like around 55, 60 minutes is when that would be an aggressive sub. Halftime is when something's gone wrong. If you're making 70 minutes for Christian Pulisic got his nuts kicked up into his stomach and you have to bring in somebody. Do you want to talk about that now? Well, no, I want to talk about the formation for a second because I rarely get a chance to strut my soccer song. José Mourinho Simmons. Let's do it.
