Two games down. Two games to go. We're halfway through this current international break, so Taylor called up Extratime's David Gass to get his thoughts on the present USMNT.

Plus, we break down the performances of some of the MLS players on the current US roster, and discuss what they need to do to improve their game between now and when coach Gregg Berhalter makes his roster official. Players discussed in particular detail include Christian Roldan, DeAndre Yedlin, Aaron Long, Walker Zimmerman, Kellyn Acosta, Jesus Ferreira, Paul Arriola, and Jordan Morris.Sponsors!

With Nations League games and World Cup tune-up matches looming, Taylor talked with the The Athletic's Joshua Kloke (or more so peppered him with questions) about the Canada men's national team. How did the federation turn the program around to the extent they topped Concacaf World Cup qualifying, as well as which organizations and individuals deserve the most credit for that feat? There's also roster predicting, tactical refreshers, and an attempted trade involving Jonathan David. All that and more!You can pre-order Joshua's book "The Voyageurs: Canada's men's national team's quest for the World Cup" by clicking this linkAnd you can check out Mr Kloke's roster predictions piece over at The Athletic Hosted on Acast.

No spoilers in the title!Joe and Taylor have a good old time breaking down the USA's EMPHATIC (I don't care what Joe says, it was emphatic) 3-0 friendly win over Morocco. The US did a lot of little things differently, we try to get to the bottom of what was new, what was an evolution of the old, and what stayed the same. That might not make sense in written form, but I'm pretty sure it made more sense when discussed out loud for an hour plus. We also break down individual performances, discuss areas for improvement, and sing the praises of Tyler Adams for a long time... but probably still not enough time.Sponsors!
