Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola break down Folarin Balogun’s game-changing heroics for Monaco as he makes an instant impression on new manager Sébastien Pocognoli. With Christian Pulisic and Malik Tillman nursing injuries, could the USMNT be forced into reshuffling plans for the November camp? The guys look ahead to a packed Champions League week featuring American talent - and which games Mauricio Pochettino should have circled. Then the crew discusses MLS Decision Day fallout and debate who’s built for a playoff run before handing out the Call It What You Want MLS 2025 Awards and revealing their Teams of the Season (spoiler: Jimmy might’ve gone rogue). Plus, Josh Brunais, captain of the U.S. Men’s Cerebral Palsy National Team, joins the crew fresh off of leading the Stars and Stripes to Copa America glory over Argentina!
