Welcome to USMNT Weekly on the Total Soccer Show, your one-stop shop for everything men's national team.

And what a time to be with us in the September international break with home games against Korea and Japan coming up.

On this episode, we're looking at how the roster is shaping up for those games, what to expect from the opponents, and what we're hoping to see from these tune-up games in general. My name's Ryan Bailey. Join in me today, hello Taylor Rockwell. How are you? I am nervous, Ryan Bailey. It's friendlies. They don't really matter, but the World Cup is not far away. We have concerns about the squad. It is an unsurious squad, I believe, what have my co-host referred to it as? And we are playing two very serious opponents. It's going to be interesting. Don't be nervous, Taylor. It will be over soon. Talking about life, you're talking about these games, I'm not really sure which one.

You're talking about that how you will.

All right. Very good. Joining us to discuss these games and much more. Joe Larry, hello, how are you? Hey, it's me, Mr. Unserious himself. The good news is the roster got a little more serious when that mystery box player was revealed to be for Lauren Baligan. It kind of sounded like Pachino was going to give the first call to Brian White and then Brian White got hurt. Let's not talk about that. Let's not talk about that bit, Joe. He turned to the better player second. Things are great. No, things are good. I actually am. I'm very much excited for these games. We will see a more complete picture of the U.S. men's national team than we did over the summer. That is progress even if I have still not gotten over

some of the U.S. men's national team than we did over the summer.

That is progress, even if I have still not gotten over some of Pachino's picks for this roster. We did all that last week, so I'm not going to rant about it again. Very good, Joe. I did miss the Valagan reveal. I assume it was a giant box of question marks on any burst out of it. Was that how it was done? Well, it was Mario themed.

I don't Maricio Mario close enough, I guess.

And so they had one of those big yellow boxes like in Super Mario Bros. And they just had potch as soon as he was done with Big Noon college kickoff on Fox. He just sprinted off and found that box, jumped up, like head bopped it from below. And then Flore and Balligan, like popped out, you know, not very excitedly, I'll add Baligan, but I guess it's kind of crint in that box. I'm not

really sure. There we go. Joining us also, our resident Big Noon College kickoff and Graham, Rutherland. Hello, Graham. How are you? I'm very well. Ryan Bailey, I was concerned that this was an unsirious camp until I saw Potch on Big Noon kickoff with the pizza review guy from

YouTube.

That made me feel much better that he's taking this very seriously.

I miss this as well. Potch was holding up a sign behind the guys.

I take it saying like, I'm revealing Flo Belligan today. Was that it?

Joe saw it. You tell us, Joe. That is exactly what happened. And I know, I know Pach got roasted a little bit for doing that bit on, you know, ahead of the college football season and on Vox. I love that he's doing that stuff. Like, obviously, U.S. Soccer is pushing him into these kinds of situations. They want him to be a face of the team heading into the World Cup. I see very little downside to doing that and a whole lot of upside.
