Welcome to the Scuff Podcast where we talk about US Soccer. We have a roster for the pair of friendlies coming up against Uzbekistan and Oman on September 9 and September 12 respectively Greg Berthalter

was back in the press conference cockpit. Greg how you doing? I'm doing great man

Berhaltor back and I can't believe that the Monday review folks were not super

excited about this roster. I can't believe Waki had to pull teeth to get you to talk about it. Fun cycle. Cycle's going to be fun. Let me

clarify. I'm excited to see the team play, but you know I don't think there was

very much doubt about who the top 15 players or so were going to be in this roster.

And so I didn't want to get into some lengthy debate about Tanner-Tessman versus Johnny Cardoso, which we will get into here shortly, right?

Yeah, you're saving that for with me.

Should we run through the roster first?

Why don't you do it?

Since you're sort of fussy about how you

organize it? Well I never have liked the press release order where that's

alphabetical because come on like we don't we don't see these position groups

alphabetically.

First off, I'll run through the injured players

that we kind of had.

And then I'm not, I don't have that tweet in front

of me that had Berhalter's list of injured or U.S. soccer's list because they listed even more.

But we're talking about Giorana, Tyler Adams, Josh Sergeant, Cameron Carter Vickers, Walker-Zimmerman, Taylor Booth, as guys who were kind of like already pretty obviously injured.

I know the US soccer one had Stephan, I think it had to Eric Palmer Brown.

So a few other names, throwing out there is a courtesy, a courtesy to those gentlemen.

Yeah, good on them.
