About this episode
The U20 World Cup begins May 23 and the U.S. roster will drop in just over a week. Matt Hartman (@mattshartman) joins to chat about that roster — who we’d like to see on it, who’ll miss out, and why. You don’t want to miss Hartman’s 5 principles of a Tab-selected U20 World Cup squad. We then (pretty much) settle on a roster and an XI for the tournament. 0:30 Intro and Hartman’s 5 Principles of U20 World Cup roster selection 5:25 goalkeepers 12:00 defenders 30:00 midfielders 45:00 forwards 55:50 What if Weah and Sargent are on the roster?
