Welcome to the Scuff Podcast where we talk about US Soccer. Hey everyone we have a couple men's national team games coming up our first since our BC D team crashed out of the Gold Cup in early July.

How are you, Waki?

I'm doing very well.

Good, Greg.

I'm doing all right.

I'd like, if it's okay, could we spend the first 15 or 20 minutes trying to determine whether it was a

C team or a D team for the gold cup? Yeah that's what I was alluding to. Yeah, what do you think? No, let's not. So we play it was Beckistan on Saturday, 5.30 Eastern,

4.30 Central. I want to talk about some things we could learn from those matches. I have some ideas here I'll run them by you. How about that?

All right. Number one, can Malik Tillman play the 10 for the US?

As I mean can he play it, Will Berhalter play him there is I guess the question.

It's a perfect opportunity for this if there ever was because Tyler Adams is

Indisposed.

We would get to see Malik get a chance to start

and make a real impact for the first time.

For this would be his first start if you were to start.

And as we have discussed, he is a decent proxy for the injured Giovanni Reyna.

So we could get to see an 11 with a double pivot and a 10, which is one way to get Geo in our best 11 sometime in the future.

Thoughts?

I think we might see it.

I really do and I think it's because you know for as ably and willingly as Brendan Aronson has filled in that midfield role,

as needed to did it in the World Cup, played that midfield spot.

West was on limited minutes.
