Adam Snavely is back on the show! After you lovely listeners were kind enough to send in some USMNT-centric questions, Joe and Adam teamed up to answer a handful of them. You can find the full list of questions that we tackled down below:1) What additional evidence do we need to confirm that Pepi is, in fact, “the striker that was promised”?2) What are our predictions for Michael Bradley‘s future? Coach? Analyst? Simply retire?3) Why does Sergiño Dest play at leftback? Is it due to a lack of quality on the left? An over abundance on the right? What is it?4) If USMNT Twitter was a song, what would it be and why? And if the USMNT was a song, what would it be?5) Who would we realistically like to manage the USMNT after the 2022 World Cup cycle? 6) Is it too late to for players like Luca de la Torre or Sebastian Soto to wade their way into the mix for the USMNT during WCQ? 7) How is Gianluca Busio doing with Venezia in Italy? Is he helping his USMNT chances?Sponsors! Today's show is brought to you by...The NBA!

On this week’s episode of Allocation Disorder, Paul and Sam break down the new, revolutionary Leagues Cup format that was announced earlier this week. Why is this MLS/Liga MX collaboration such a big deal? What does it mean for MLS in terms of television revenue? Will this tournament encourage MLS to relax its many roster building mechanisms? And is this Concacaf’s version of the European Super League?After the Leagues Cup talk, Paul and Sam move on to a discussion of FC Dallas. Sam yells. It’s entertaining.

It’s listener question time! On this episode, Taylor, Ryan, Graham, and Joe teamed up to tackle your lovely inquiries. You can find the full list of questions that we tackled down below:1) At the Euros this summer, England brought on a couple of players specifically to take penalty kicks in the shootout against Italy. It, uh, didn’t work. Are there any examples of this being a good strategy? 2) In what parts of the world are beach soccer and futsal most popular? And will arena soccer ever become as popular again as it was in the early 1980s?3) Why don’t we use more data in our analysis of games?4) How much money should we be putting in FC Sheriff to make it out of their Champions League group?5) Every once in a while, you hear players and managers refer to other players by nicknames. Are there any interesting nicknames that stick out to us?6) What's the difference between 'hero-ball' & 'taking the game by the scruff of the neck'?Sponsors!

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!
