Latest News from USMNT Camp & Who Should Play vs Turkiye!?

Author: iHeartPodcasts June 23, 2026 Duration: 42:49

Tom Bogert and Tab Ramos discuss the latest news from USMNT World Cup camp as the United States prepares for its final group-stage match against Türkiye. With Christian Pulisic officially declared 100% fit, the guys debate whether he should play, how many starters should rest versus stay sharp, and what Mauricio Pochettino values more in a match that may have little impact on the standings.

Tab gives his full scouting report on Türkiye, breaking down the team's strengths, weaknesses, and the key battles that could decide the match.

Then, Tab shares one of the most dramatic stories of his playing career: the devastating skull fracture he suffered against Brazil in the knockout stage of the 1994 World Cup. He recalls the moment it happened, why legendary coach Bora Milutinović asked if he could return to the match at halftime, and whether he still holds any resentment toward the Brazilian player whose elbow changed his tournament and career forever.

Plus, Tab makes his DraftKings predictions for the week's biggest matches, including a look ahead at the potential U.S. opponent in the knockout round, which could be the winner of Bosnia and Herzegovina vs. Qatar.
