Summary
With just 21 days until Mauricio Pochettino names his 26-man World Cup squad, Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola break down the latest performances shaping the roster race. Folarin Balogun and Ricardo Pepi keep finding the net, Sergiño Dest makes his long-awaited return from injury, and Alex Freeman continues to seize his moment with UCL-bound Villarreal. But it’s not all positive with Alex Zendejas’ form taking a poorly-timed dip. As the countdown intensifies, the crew dives into the mindset of players on the bubble and debates whether the roster is already decided behind closed doors. Then, former co-host Jesse Marsch returns to discuss Canada’s World Cup preparations, managing expectations, and what this moment means north of the border.
