I'll have my eye on March for now, trying to make sure I'm fit for that and get back in the team because realistically,
I have not played for the States in over a year now.
So my position is kind of gone.
I need to earn it.
I need to get back called up in the squad healthy and playing the game again.
All right.
We talk about consistent performers as well as players that have that vocal leadership quality Jedi is definitely one of them.
Unfortunately, he has been played with a couple of injuries in the last year, but
To think or to hear him say that he has to earn back his spot.
Is it really, Herb, do you really think his spot has been that much under threat?
Has someone fully occupied that?
What sets him apart, do you think?
Is it the more experience, the leadership?
Let me ask Xhaka this, though.
Just because Xhaka says he pretty much the ink is already dry with his name on that team sheet come Mauricio Pochettino's team at the World Cup right now.
Xhaka, but as Herc said, six games under his belt now for Fulham.
He just made that return back in December.
Club minutes, though, don't necessarily mean country ready.
And he's now only going to have one international window, you know, which is March that he has his eye on.
God forbid anything happen to be country ready for a World Cup on home soil.
