Clint Dempsey opens up on youth soccer, Pulisic & the USMNT’s World Cup outlook (Soccer 4/23)

Clint Dempsey headlines a good-to-great episode, but first Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Benny Feilhaber get to the mystery of Tony Meola’s whereabouts and react to Türkiye star Arda Güler being shut down for the rest of the club season. The crew also breaks down a busy midweek for Americans abroad. Benny wonders how Mauricio Pochettino might shape the USMNT midfield, and if there is a logical case for benching Christian Pulisic at the World Cup...

Then, it's time to hear from USMNT legend Clint Dempsey who opens up about his new docuseries “You Don’t Know Where I’m From Dawg,” and doesn’t hold back on the current state of youth soccer, Poch's substitutions, and his thoughts about the team's chances at the World Cup.

Plus, the guys try to make sense of a wild night in MLS where defending was optional, and look ahead to the weekend's slate of games.
