Duel NatsThu, Sep 17 | 3PM ETUSMNT Roster REACTION: Pulisic OUT, Cavan Sullivan and the Youth IN | DUEL NATS
The USMNT’s star player is not in Mauricio Pochettino’s immediate plans, with Christian Pulisic being left off the squad, could this be a sign of the future or is it merely a one-time decision from Poch? While many of the USA’s World Cup squad like Pulisic, Tim Ream, and Timothy Weah were all left without a place, there was a clear sign for the direction of the team moving forward: a youth movement is taking place. Herculez Gomez and Sebastian Salazar break down the best inclusions of the 11 U-20 players in Poch’s squad, with standouts like Cavan Sullivan, Neil Pierre, Mathis Albert, and Julian Hall all earning their first senior team call-ups. Can this youth wave usher in a real golden era for the USMNT or will it be more of the same from this generation? And are the forwards, headlined by Orlando City’s Justin Ellis, strong enough to lead the line without marquee players like Folarin Balogun there to bring in goals?
