The Athletic's Sam Stejskal returns to the podcast to discuss why Paul Tenorio is the superior contributor to Allocation Disorder. After that, we spend A LOT of time on the USMNT's start to World Cup qualifying: what's it like to cover them at home and on the road, who impressed (or, more accurately, instilled confidence) in the opening games, and what happened with Weston McKennie? We also get into the newly reimagined Leagues' Cup and the massive impact it could have on Concacaf, and spend some time in MLS, talking FC Dallas, New England, San Jose, and more! Sponsors!
