The Champions League delivered absolute madness this week. Ricardo Pepi endured a disappointing outing for PSV, while Weston McKennie's Juventus clash with Dortmund turned into an eight-goal thriller. Over in Madrid, Tim Weah scored his first goal with his new club Marseille and made history with the first-ever USMNT goal at the Bernabéu. Is Timmy the USMNT's best player right now? Elsewhere, Yunus Musah faced PSG's firepower, Liverpool escaped Atletico at Anfield, and Bayern put Chelsea in their place. We also check in on USMNT Abroad, Chris Richards stepping up in Palace's Carabao Cup win, Josh Sargent on finding his rhythm with the national team, and Quinn Sullivan's stunner in the U.S. Open Cup. To wrap the show, the guys discuss the USMNT's back 3 formation, Stu's Starting XI for the next window, and big-picture questions on Pochettino's first year with the USMNT.

Sporting Kansas City were unfortunately unable to capture a result against Austin FC Sunday Night at Children's Mercy Park, falling 2-1 to the Verde giving up a couple goals on the types of sequences that have become all too common for them this year. It was a return to the 4-2-3-1 setup we saw for the first hour against Colorado, and similarly to that game Kerry Zavagnin switched to the 4-4-2 to attempt to try to take the game to Austin late, but they were unfortunately not able to catch lightning twice, and gave up a late set piece goal that despite Dejan Joveljic's best efforts in stoppage time were not able to equalize.It was yet another reminder that this team still has a lot of work ahead of it to become a consistently competitive team in MLS, and reinvigorated conversations about how the team might go about doing it roster-wise. The long awaited CSO conversation was brought back with renewed vigor as Andrew Wiebe reported pre-game that the team was in final interviews for the position and alluded to some interesting details that really got the conversation going regarding how significant this roster turnover in the winter could potentially be.The USMNT completed their September window with two very differentiated performances, candidly the first game was quite different between the two halves against S. Korea, and an interesting tactical switch by Pochettino had at least one member of this podcast crew making comparisons to Sporting KC and how a setup we've begged for most of the year might bring similar positive results.Finally, the KC Current continue dominating NWSL, we do a quick stock up stock down of the USMNT roster, and get into a preview of this weekend's trip to Salt Lake City.Music by The Spin Wires
Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola recap the USMNT's 2-0 win over Japan, a much-needed morale boost sealed by goals from Alejandro Zendejas and Folarin Balogun. Mauricio Pochettino's decision to roll with a back three gave the U.S. a new edge, delivering their first victory over a top-20 FIFA opponent since the 2022 World Cup... but don't call it a "signature" win! The Athletic's Paul Tenorio joins to break down who helped (or hurt) their stock the most during September camp (08:05). The guys debate the MOTM (21:51), dig into the impact of Pochettino's tactical shift (26:30), what it means for the roster moving forward (30:45), and how to judge his first year in charge of the USMNT (46:47).

The USMNT finally showed real progress in a convincing 2-0 win over Japan.

The team looked sharper in possession, more organized without the ball, and far more comfortable with roles that suited the players on the field.In this breakdown, we look at how the formation shift unlocked the squad's potential, why the balance finally felt right, and what this performance means moving forward. After weeks of frustration, the USMNT produced a display that felt like a genuine step in the right direction.Follow Yanks Abroad Social Channels:TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@yanksabroadInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/yanksabroadpod/Twitter - https://twitter.com/yanksabroadpod#USMNT #Pochettino #ChristianPulisic #folarinbalogun #WorldCup #Soccer

Mauricio Pochettino's odd selections and misprofiling of his own players came back to haunt the USMNT in a brutal 2-0 loss to South Korea. From square pegs in round holes to baffling tactical choices, this was a display that exposed just how badly the manager misunderstood his squad. South Korea had no trouble exploiting the weaknesses, and the result was an embarrassing defeat that raised serious questions about Pochettino's future in charge.
