It has been a difficult summer for US soccer and one to forget. The USMNT suffered a humiliating group exit in the Copa America, which the US hosted. The USYNT U23 featured in their first Olympics since 2008 and their first knockout stage appearance since 2000. It quickly became disappointing when the U23 team lost to Morocco 0-4 in the Quarterfinals. The U20 had a great group stage in the CONCACAF U20 Championship but struggled to convince the nations of the confederation that they are a championship contender. This led to them losing to Mexico in the Final after a controversial goal, ending our hopes of winning the trophy for a 4th consecutive time.

There are some positives to take away. USSF finally decided to part ways with Gregg Berhalter and currently looking for a manager from Europe. Both the U23 and U20 did not take the best possible eligible players, giving us hopes still for the next 2 generations. Players like Johnny Cardoso, Malik Tillman, and Jalen Neal did not take part in the Olympics. As for the U20, the team was missing the likes of Joshua Wynder, Cole Campbell, and Diego Kochen. There are still plenty of players who can make a future impact for the USMNT than the players who were featured in both youth tournaments.

The USYNT U20 team announced the roster for the CONCACAF U20 Championship last week. The boys will have their first match tomorrow night against Jamaica. In this episode, we cover the roster and the tournament. What were our opinions of the team? Who are missing from the roster? And how do we think the team will perform and this year's CONCACAF U20 Championship, which serves as the qualifiers for the U20 World Cup.

Gregg Berhalter is fired! The USSF announced that Berhalter was fired on June 10th after nearly 2 weeks since the USMNT was eliminated in the Group Stage of the Copa America. We go over the positives and negatives of Gregg Berhalter's time as the USMNT manager, other possible managers to replace him, and who our top 5 picks to be the next manager.

Weston McKennie is heavily linked to Aston Villa in a swap deal after rejecting a new contract from Juventus. Could we see McKennie return to the EPL? Paxten Aaronson is expected to go on another loan after his half season loan with Dutch club Vitesse. Another loan might just be what Paxten needs and a return to the Eredivisie would be a good option for him. We may see Richard Ledezma return to MLS. He is currently linked with LAFC, RSL, and Portland. A return to the US could be the right move for Ledezma to revive his career. There is updated news on Rokas Pukstas. Pukstas has requested a transfer, and it has been reported that Hadjuk Split has given West Ham the go ahead to sign the young American. Lastly, there will be another American in the 2. Bundesliga. Santiago Castañeda has signed with Paderborn from 3. Liga club Duisburg.

On June 8th, the USMNT had a friendly against Colombia and was crushed 1-5, a week before the Copa America. Most of our players, who did well for their domestic clubs this season, looked awful. This was the worst defeat under Gregg Berhalter bringing his record to 6-0-4 since his rehiring. Changes need to be made after the Copa America, and one of them needs to be the manager if we want to be competitive at the 2026 WC on home soil. The USMNT were not the only the US soccer team to play over the weekend. The U23 team had a closed-door match against Japan and the U19/20 defeated Argentina 1-0

Marko Mitrovic has announced the US Olympic Roster for this year's Olympic Games in Paris! In this episode, we go over the 22 players, which players we agree with and who we don't. Along with that, we mention who we would've preferred to see at the Olympics.

Lastly, we discuss the rumors of MLS playing a role in the selection process and how we see that is a problem with the development of our youth players.

It has been a while, but we are back and with a new name. Stars and Stripes Soccer is now called Yanks Footy and with that, we have a new co-host, Robert! In his first episode on the show, we go over the disappointing group exit for the USMNT at the Copa America. We discuss what direction the USSF should go after being eliminated in the Copa America. From players who should be demoted to who should be the new manager. The coaches we would like to see who are realistic are guys ranging from Wilfred Nancy and Hugo Perez. We also do discuss the possibility of Joachim Löw and Jürgen Klopp, and how we could get them.

USSF announced the rosters of both the U19 and U23 for their final camps before their respected tournaments next month. We go over who received the call and who didn't with our reaction. The U19 will face against Uruguay and Argentina, while the U23 will face Japan.

Along with that, we also discuss the recent transfer rumors regarding Tanner Tessmann and Rokas Pukstas, and also Favian Loyola receiving a call up from Chile's U20 team for this month.
