Poch names USMNT's World Cup roster | Full Reaction (Soccer 5/26)

With the World Cup just 16 days away, the wait is finally over: Mauricio Pochettino has named his 26-man squad for the World Cup on home soil! Poppy Miller, Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Benny Feilhaber react to every major decision as the roster for the biggest tournament in modern USMNT history is officially revealed, and the pressure surrounding this group ahead of the World Cup's return to U.S. soil for the first time since 1994.

The crew breaks down Pochettino’s squad line-by-line, debates the strongest possible starting XI, and examines how players like Weston McKennie can help the U.S. handle the enormous expectations that come with a home tournament. The guys also react to the controversial revelation that some players were informed of their omission via email rather than a phone call, before discussing the notable absences of Diego Luna and Tanner Tessmann.

Plus, with Gio Reyna headed to his second World Cup, Jimmy shares a personal message for the talented playmaker as he looks to seize his moment on the sport’s biggest stage. And to close the show, we hear from Sergiño Dest and Alejandro Zendejas on the excitement, nerves, and responsibility of representing the Red, White and Blue at a home World Cup!
