It's World Cup draw eve and the CIWYW crew is pumped! Charlie Davies and Tony Meola react to the Stars and Stripes locking in friendlies against fellow Pot 1 teams Germany, Portugal and Belgium, along with one yet-to-be-announced opponent (05:23). Is Mexico the logical choice? And which USMNT players have the most to prove ahead of the March window (14:00)?
With all eyes on Washington DC ahead of the draw, the guys talk favorites to win the World Cup, and consider best and worst case scenarios for Poch's boys (25:43). Speaking of which, Johnny Cardoso suffers another injury blow (35:26). And not to forget the MLS Cup Final, the guys discuss Thomas Müller's impressive head-to-head record against Lionel Messi, and whether the Vancouver Whitecaps' American contingent can upset Inter Miami (47:31).
