Tom Bogert returns from paternity leave alongside Tab Ramos to break down the latest around the USMNT. They start with the shocking timing and fallout of Matt Crocker leaving his role as U.S. Soccer Sporting Director for a move to Saudi Arabia less than two months before the FIFA World Cup. Tab explains why he sees it as a troubling sign for the program, and why building a stronger culture is more important than ever.

They discuss Christian Pulisic, should there be real concern about his recent form, or is the panic overblown? Tab also gives his predictions for the final World Cup roster under Mauricio Pochettino.

Plus, Tom shares his first “new dad” story since returning to the show.
