Summary

Alexi Lalas and David Mosse are back with a new episode of State of the Union! Today we discuss whether or not USA fans should be getting worried about Christian Pulisic’s decrease in playing time and production for Milan. We then break down Fulham’s improved bid for Ricardo Pepi, fill you in with the latest news from the Josh Sargent vs Norwich City saga, and give Patrick Agyemang his flowers for his prolific scoring as of late for Derby County. We give a quick update on various depth defenders from around Europe, including Joe Scally and Mark McKenzie before breaking down the USWNT absolutely ROUTING Paraguay 6-0 in their first match of 2026. In #AskAlexi, we get a voicemail asking if we should be concerned about the state of Goalkeeping for the national team and finish things up with a message from Sepp Blatter in One for the Road.
