Mauricio Pochettino is using his first roster of the new cycle to experiment, evaluate and open the door to new possibilities. Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies and Tony Meola break down the 28-man roster, including 13 uncapped players getting their chance to prove themselves at the international level. Which of the fresh faces could make a real impression, and what do the new options tell us about the direction of this team? And while the door opens for some new players, some familiar faces are missing with Christian Pulisic, Weston McKennie and Tim Weah among the notable omissions. The crew also get into the goalkeeper and center back situations, discuss Gio Reyna and Yunus Musah, and recap Wednesday's U.S. Open Cup semifinal action.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. Follow the Call It What You Want team on X:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@JimmyConrad⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠,⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ @CharlieDavies9⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@TMeola1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For more soccer coverage from CBS Sports, visit ⁠https://www.cbssports.com/soccer/⁠Subscribe to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Paramount+⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Visit the betting arena on CBS Sports.com: ⁠https://www.cbssports.com/betting/⁠For all the latest in sportsbook reviews and promos: ⁠https://www.cbssports.com/betting/news/sportsbook-promos/

Every week, Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola get together for a conversation that feels like pulling up a chair at the pub with friends who just happen to have lived the professional soccer life. Their Call It What You Want: A CBS Sports Golazo Network Podcast is built on that unique perspective, offering analysis that’s as informed by their own experiences on the pitch as it is by the current headlines. The core of the discussion always circles back to the USMNT-its roster decisions, its performances, and its long-term trajectory-but the scope of the show is deliberately broader. You’ll hear them dig into the rhythms of MLS, the drama of the UEFA Champions League, and the journeys of Americans Abroad, all while assessing the overall health and growth of soccer stateside. This isn’t a dry recap of scores; it’s a lively, often opinionated, and deeply knowledgeable take on the stories that matter. Listening to this podcast means getting a blend of technical breakdown, historical context, and the kind of candid debate that can only come from former pros who are still deeply embedded in the game’s ecosystem. They call it what they want, and what results is an essential weekly check-in for any fan invested in where American soccer is and where it’s headed next.
