Is Weston McKennie the Greatest American Midfielder of All-Time and More

Alexi Lalas and David Mosse are back with a new episode of State of the Union! Weston McKennie’s strong run of form for Juventus has posed the question: is he the greatest midfielder in USMNT history? After the debate, Alexi and Mosse discuss the impact that players such as Brenden Aaronson and Diego Luna will have on the USA’s squad at this summer’s World Cup. The January transfer window has opened and Ricardo Pepi’s name is flying around with a potential move to the Premier League looming, so the pair discuss what moves they’d like to see in this window. In #AskAlexi, Alexi power ranks the group stage matches he is most looking forward to at the World Cup and in One for the Road, we discuss the rising popularity of soccer in America.
