## Resource

The USMNT has already locked up top spot in Group D, but there's still plenty to play for against Türkiye. Will Mauricio Pochettino rotate his squad, protect key players on yellow cards, or keep the momentum rolling ahead of the knockout stage? Jimmy Conrad, Tony Meola, and Marcelo Balboa discuss the team's potential Round of 32 opponents, the pros and cons of resting stars like Christian Pulisic, and which fringe players deserve their World Cup moment. Plus, the guys answer your World Cup mailbag questions, debate whether Weston McKennie is the greatest U.S. midfielder ever, and make their predictions for the final group-stage showdown.
