McKennie goes from expendable to essential, Dike's World Cup dream, USMNT central midfield depth chart (Soccer 5/6)
Description
Big news out of Turin: Weston McKennie is reportedly set to sign a contract extension with Juventus that would make him one of the club’s highest paid players. Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola dig into what this means for the USMNT midfielder - and whether the pressure that comes with it would elevate or hinder his game (04:36). Plus, Daryl Dike finds the net for the first time in nearly two years - is a World Cup push back on the table for the West Brom man? (26:57) The guys also break down the curious case of Sergiño Dest and Mauricio Pochettino's silence (36:20), and Tony unveils his Top 5 for perhaps the USMNT's strongest position - central midfield (44:36). Rounding things out, a look ahead to a tasty Round of 32 in the U.S. Open Cup (57:30).
