Summary

Joe is joined by Adam Snavely to preview the USMNT's upcoming game on Sunday against Trinidad and Tobago and answer some listener questions. Joe and Adam talk about the U.S. players they're most excited to watch against T&T and give their preferred starting elevens for that game before turning their collective attention towards listener questions!

NEW SHOW ALERT! Today at 5PM ET, Taylor and Ryan are going to be doing a Soccer 101-centric live show on the Stereo app. You can sign up for Stereo here or here - and it’s totally free! Stereo lets you record your questions and submit them instantaneously, and we’ll do our best to answer them all (or at least as many as we can). And don’t forget to follow Taylor (@rockwelltss), Ryan (@ryanbailey), and Joe (@joelowery) on the free Stereo app!

Now, here's the list of questions that Joe and Adam answered on the show:

1) What happened to players like Lynden Gooch, Romain Gall, and Shaq Moore who featured for the U.S. after Couva?

2) What is Frank Lampard’s future as a coach?

3) If you could swap one of Chelsea’s marquee attacking players with another team’s midfielder or defender, who would you sell and who would you sign?

4) Is a right back the same as a right wingback and are Inverted wingers the same as "regular" wingers?

5) Is Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes the closest thing we’ve seen to a classic #10? 

6) How much overlap is there between soccer strategy and chess strategy?

7) Are Andrew Carlton and Paxton Pomykal the latest young Americans that we hyped prematurely?

I have had my coffee. It's a bright and shining morning in Virginia.

It's snowed, which is a big deal.

I miss the snow a lot of the time, and we haven't had a good snow in a really long time.

a little town called Bath, which is wedged in between Rochester and Buffalo, snow was a massive

1:36.8

part of, of growing up on snow days, and I was used to a certain amount of it.
