Welcome to USMENTY

Welcome to USMNT Weekly on the Total Soccer Show, your one-stop shot for everything related to the national team.

On this episode, we're deep diving on Chris Richards, Anas Mirabilis.

We're looking at a couple of players on the edge of a USMNT breakthrough, and we're asking Marizio Pochititina will leave the states sooner than we may have hoped. My name's Ryan Bailey. Joining me today, it's the man who surely enjoyed me using Latin in their intro. It's Taylor Rockwell. Hello, Taylor. Actually, Ennis Mirabilis is a Greek-American international. He's 15-year-old. He plays for Orlando City. But he could make that breakthrough any time now. I'm pretty sure that's who you're talking about.

He's in the Svita Bundesliga, right, at this point? Is that right? Yeah, yeah. Strong legs. Yes. Strong legs over there. So we'll see. I mean, it could go well. It might not. It could be a very good year for him. We'll see. Very good. Excellent stuff. Joe Larry's here. Hi, Joe.

Hi, guys. That was fantastic work from your part, Taylor. This makes me think of the time where I wanted to learn what the Latin word for cookie was, and it's Chrystallum. And I don't know that I can make a soccer player out of that, maybe like a Brazilian left back or something like that. Christalum coming up through the Sao Paulo system. That's just top tier stuff. Why did they have a word for cookie back then? Were they making cookies?

It was, it's just top-tier stuff. Why did they have a word for cookie back then? Were they making cookies? It was not actually cookie. It was just dirt in the shape of a cookie. And that's their dessert. Oh, so Hershey's. Yeah. Hershey's, cookies and cream. 100%. That's what it was. Yeah, we still have that. Very good. Graham Ruff here. Hi, Graham. Hello, Ryan Bailey. I actually thought you were casting Harry Potter spells or that player was up front for Gryffindor in the Quidditch World Cup. One of the other. Do you reckon Weston McKinney has an anus mirrorbillus tattoo at some point? Sure, sure. Yeah. He definitely has an anus somewhere. Graham committing just a massive error right off the bat. Graham, Gryffindor didn't participate in the Quidditch World Cup. Thank you very much. That's like asking Bastion Schweensdegger if he's going to win the World Cup with Chicago Fire. I've been exposed. I've been exposed. Graham's never seen Victor Crum playing his life in its shows. It's embarrassing. I know. What an embarrassment. Is there, I don't know Harry Potter very well? Is there actually a World Cup of

Quidditch? It's like a World Series situation where only select realms play it. I've only

seen the movies, so I don't have the in-depth knowledge of exactly the inner workings of the tournament, unfortunately. Is Victor Crum Robert Pattinson or is that someone else? I've only seen the movies, so I don't have the in-depth knowledge of exactly the inner workings of the tournament, unfortunately.

Is Victor Crum Robert Pattinson or is that someone else? I forget. Oh, Merced in them. That's somebody else. That is somebody else. That is somebody else. Victor Crum is Hungarian, I think. He plays for Hungary versus, I think, Ireland in the Quiddish role. he's the uh he's the quidditch adam sallai really if you think about it that way i think that's that's my read i

actually more than something actually works He's the Quidditch Adam Sallai, really, if you think about it that way. I think that's my read.

I actually more of the sober slide than anything.

That actually works.

Yeah, it does.

Is the Quiddish World Cup taking the same?

Is it like the FIFA route?

Will it be in Saudi Arabia in 2030?

48 teams.

Yeah, teams from Fantastic Beasts are now being invited.

Amazing.

I'm expanding it to make sure lesser schools than...

But only two bathrooms.
