Mauricio Pedroza

Now, if he's recovered well, if he plays consistently, shows no effects from his recovery, makes the jump to Liverpool, and Liverpool will have to compete at Champions League level,

to finish in the top four of the Premier League.

It's not a guarantee for Liverpool at this point.

But as Alex said, if he becomes an important player in that run, in that stretch, I do not see any scenario in which he's not the starter for the US men's national team.

Before the injury, he was probably one of the safest bets as who will start for the US.

Back to his health,

Playing time at that level, I mean, how is he not a consummate starter for that team?

He better.

He better be watching.

It counts for fantasy purposes.

Oh, Joe.

Joe, we're going the wrong way, Joe.

That also counts for fantasy purposes.

And the boring part is El Tal Arangel was the starter.

Angel Malagon on the bench.

Maybe we don't have a competition any longer, except he made this mistake that almost

Costly goal for Bolivia.

It was concerning because from the starting 11 against Bolivia, I can see five players starting against South Africa in the first game, the opening game of the World Cup.

I see Marcel Ruiz starting.

I see Jesus Gallardo starting.
