I'm looking at you, American soccer fans. To quote Tim Howard, do me a favor, settle down, lower your expectations, because this is what happens in sports. Everybody loves the new, exciting, shiny toy. I'm not saying that toy won't end up next to you in bed for the next 20 years as your desired toy of choice. Didn't know where that was going. Unfiltered Soccer with Landon and Tim presented by Volkswagen. Volkswagen has long been a supporter of soccer in America and has proudly been a partner of U.S. Soccer for over five years.
Welcome to Unfiltered Soccer with Landon and Tim, presented by Volkswagen LD. Yes, how about that, Raiders? Wait, are you a Raiders fan? Like, bring me back.
I am.
I
grew up in L.A. Well, ish.
O.G., yeah.
Ish. And I couldn't support a team other than the Raiders or the Rams at that point. And I wasn't going to be a Rams fan. And then they moved and they moved and they moved. But now we're 2-0, Tim. We're 2-0.
And it's not going to
last long.
No, it
was, I went to the game in LA. It was the worst football game I think I've ever seen. But we're like, we're two and oh, and by the way, they took over that stadium.
Oh my God. That
was insane. Dope. Um, all right. You're in the Hamptons.
I'm just chilling. Nice. I think it's international eight week or used to be international week. It used to be international week and now it's like international month. What does that mean? International. Like it's now international week.
Oh, for soccer? Correct. Oh, they were talking about football.
Can
I show you? I got to show you this. What the heck? This won't mean anything to you, Tim?
No.
But this is the Friday Golf Invitational 2026 winner's belt.
Did you win? Me
and Mike McGee. Mike McGee came out to be part of it.
Nice. Sick as that. I wear this thing
everywhere.
Mike McGee's a killer, dude. He's a killer on the
golf course.
I thought you were going to say that was your fantasy football belt. No,
I'll have that later in the year.
I'm 2-0 most points. We also didn't take a poll because you're looking at two individuals. One who really likes fantasy football and one who thinks it's really dumb. But anyway, just go. Just let me do my thing,

Okay, later on the show, full analysis of the first U.S. Men's National Team squad. Well, actually, we're going to do that pretty soon here. As we get to the 2030 World Cup cycle, we'll tell you players we're excited to see. Projected starting 11 maybe for Mexico or Canada, which I think we think are the best teams. um
games of this
but first first we're going to talk about the omissions which i know pochettino hates when people talk about the omissions but that is sort of part of this deal because there's players we are used to seeing over and over and over and one in particular um christian pulisic is not in the squad now Everyone has their theories as to why. Before we dig into this, if you guys have not seen this goal he scored on the weekend, I wasn't able to watch. I was out doing stuff with my
kids,
but I went home and someone sent me the highlight. This touch, he's done this a few times, by
the way,
like long ball over the top.
Yep.
the way he like just caressed it. And then first time with his left foot rolls, I was like, Jesus, what a goal, man. And it reminds you of the quality he has. We don't have players who do that. We don't. What a goal.
We've always talked about that. He's one of the very few who were able to do that in the
history.
I
know. And he's doing it like the highest level. And Milani was man of the match, scored the goal. So really nice to have him back and had an assist, sorry, as an assist, um, in his two appearances this season.
So
what's your takeaway from
his
omission? Because on the simplest way, it could just be, oh, he's getting back to fitness.
