#USMNT walked all over #ElTri in the most recent edition of this rivalry. Our thoughts on why this was the least impressive win of the whole window. 👇️ Video: youtu.be/6DhjgvU7Kvk Audio: linktr.ee/thedppod

When #USMNT took on Peru, Poch didn't tailor anything to the kids. He tossed them out there and said "this is our style", and what a joy it was to watch! Video: youtu.be/6DhjgvU7Kvk Audio: linktr.ee/thedppod

Last cycle, we were told it was the #USMNT was in it's Golden Generation. It wasn't. Are we due for it this time around?? Video: youtu.be/6DhjgvU7Kvk Audio: linktr.ee/thedppod

Wasn't pretty. Canada made it tough for 90 minutes plus.\ But #USMNT were up to the task, did enough to get 3 points and end the window a perfect 4 and 0, with a LOT of bright spots shining through. The future is exciting for this group!

I didnt think Ellis was going to be able to continue, and is rewarded with a goal for his efforts! Go on son!!! #USMNT to the moon!

This game is going to get out of hand soon if the ref doesnt start showing some cards. Get control

000

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Yea, we gotta get Ellis off. He takes one more hit and it could be a real problem!

000

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Canada not stepping down in this one. Going in physical with every challenge. One fou every 2 minutes. Persistent infringement cards surely coming soon, right?

#USMNT back 3 in the build out with Tillman dropping wide to make up the quasi LWB role. Dont hate it. #CanMNT pressing high, would like to see us go a bit more direct to start to relieve the pressure and open up the spaces

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

George Campbell an absolute UNIT in the air for #USMNT. So fun to watch

000

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Oh, so it's Trusty for a straight LB role for #USMNT? That's interesting...

#RBNY can (and should) move on from both EMCM and Emil at the end of this season, Jorge can be bought down. But we know that this FO wont properly invest to make this team work Hall, Mehmeti, Donkor all possibly gone as well? Big offseason incoming, but this sucks right now

010

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Oh my word. A Robert Voloder sighting for #RBNY??? We really must be down BAD

010

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Multiple misses from key players at close range, down off a goal against from a set piece. Sums up #RBNY season pretty well tbf

010

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

So, I guess #RBNY didnt learn much about successfully dealing with set pieces. Cool. Great. Fun. At least no one is there to see this nonsense in person

010

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Hate that all my friends from #AllforCity are the enemy today. VAMOS METRO

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

The #USMNT kids (Hall, Albert, Mehmeti, Sullivan) are just loving life right now. Just kids having fun and soaking in every minute. Absolutely love it!!

020

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Ref should just ed this. Its a friendly. No need to play anymore. Wont end well

010

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

#USMNT winning games on the backs of set pieces??? Someone show #RBNY pls. Maybe Hall and Memeti can teach them when they come back

020

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

So, this Cavan kid might be legit (he says for the 900th time in 4 games) #USMNT have a good one I think!

010

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Berhalter once again a Top 3 player for #USMNT on the pitch tonight. Amazing to think he almost gave the game up a few years back. What a baller

030

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Westfield feels like he's a bit out of his element at this level right now. Needs a bit more time to develop. Heck of a finish to be fair for the Chilean

000

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

For all the good he does, Chris Brady continues to have moments like this that make me question his viability as the #USMNT #1. Makes an absolute meal of it and now we're level heading into the break. Sheesh

010

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

LETS GOOOOO SEBBY!!!! Super smart dummy from Hall #USMNT lead, though luckily so after Chile have been dangerous

000

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

It does still baffle me that we dont have a single defender in the #USMNT pool that can take Miles' spot as CB4. I know we have some injuries but still. Yikes

000

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

That's such a killer pass from Berhalter AGAIN Hall has to finish that Should be 1 nil #USMNT

010

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Hey y'all! Taking the week off for international break, but we'll be back next week with #USMNT thoughts and any more big #MLS news! Got something you want us to cover or see? Let us know! 👇️ See ya on Monday!

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

I thought that the whole #LAFC petition thing to get him fired was way too premature. But after the string of recent results, this doesn't surprise me. A club driven go be the best. They don't wait and pull the plug. Next hire will be very interesting...

010

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Still laughing that there are a handful of #USMNT Twitter people who think Sebby Berhalter only got this good since he went over to Boro. What a SCREAMER. Dude is SO GOOD

030

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Mehmeti enters for Tyler Adams. What a full circle moment for #RBNY academy. Constantly producing #USMNT level players, especially in the center of the park!

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

#RBNY FANS REJOICE!!! JULIAN HALL WITH HIS FIRST FOR #USMNT!! A classic Julian Hall goal, finding the dangerous spaces and getting the last touch.

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Totally not a pen, but we take it. Kids are alight for #USMNT!

000

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Campbell with highs and lows to start this one for #USMNT Great recovery to recovery the direct ball 2 minutes before he loses it dribbling out the back, eventually leading to the equalizer. Ebbs and flows. Need to learn

000

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

DREAM START FOR #USMNT DREAM START FOR JUSTIN ELLIS!!!! A deft little flick and right away he's got his first goal for the NT! This kid is going to be special. Love his game and well deserved!
