Episode Details

Inter Miami has a BIG problem heading into this weekend. 🩷🖤

The Herons have officially announced NINE players have been called up for international duty, leaving Kily González with a seriously depleted squad as Inter Miami prepares to face the Columbus Crew. intermiamicf

But one player's absence is another player's opportunity.

On this episode of Battered Herons, we're breaking down all nine international call-ups, how each absence affects Miami and, most importantly, who could finally get an opportunity to shine this weekend.

Could we see some rarely used players enter the starting XI? Which youngsters could get meaningful minutes? How does Kily construct a lineup with so many players unavailable? And could somebody use this opportunity to force their way into a bigger role going forward?

We'll also preview Inter Miami vs Columbus, discuss what we'd like to see tactically from Kily with the players he has available and set our expectations for a very unusual weekend for the Herons.

Miami won't have its normal squad.

So who steps up?
