#560: The state of the U20 pool with Matt Hartman and Marcus Chairez

Matt Hartman and Marcus Chairez, both close observers of the youth national teams and youth U.S. player pool, join Belz to break down the full U20 age group. The news hook is the ongoing camp in Florida but we talk about the actual best XI ahead of this fall's U20 World Cup (many of whom were not released for this camp) and the probable XI at the World Cup, considering who will be released by then. Check out Marcus's work at the U.S. Soccer Collective, which has become an indispensable source on soccer prospects from the USA.
