Show notes
Join Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola on the latest Call It What You Want, presented by Zillow, as they dig into the USMNT’s March camp roster - the final tune-up before the World Cup.
Is choosing Gio Reyna over Alex Zendejas a risky precedent (05:36)? And is Mauricio Pochettino starting to cool on Diego Luna (16:38)?
The crew breaks down Pochettino’s push to recruit Noahkai Banks (27:51), the roster’s built-in flexibility, and how Tyler Adams’ absence opens the door for a midfield shake-up (33:19). Plus, with Johnny Cardoso the last American standing in the Champions League, the guys revisit their brackets (39:53).
They also reflect on Clint Dempsey’s legacy as Ricardo Pepi is reportedly set to follow his fellow Texan in moving to Fulham (44:17), and debate who’s now the favorite to win the Concacaf Champions Cup after early exits from Inter Miami, San Diego, and Vancouver Whitecaps (54:12).
Call It What You Want is available for free on the Audacy app as well as Apple Podcasts, Spotify and wherever else you listen to podcasts.
