Alexi Lalas and David Mosse are back with a LIVE episode of State of the Union! FIFA announced their new world rankings with the USA coming in at #16 and Mexico at #10 and the guys have some thoughts. We debate the merit of the rankings before Alexi unveils his own post international break power rankings of the top 10 teams in the world. After, we head to Europe to highlight the biggest matches of the weekend that will see Folarin Balogun make his return to Monaco, Christian Pulisic and Weston McKennie take the field in Serie A, Alex Freeman meet Kylian Mbappe and Real Madrid, and Liverpool host Manchester City in their first match back in the EPL after being found guilty on 114 of their 115 charges. In #AskAlexi, we discuss if any of the newly capped USA players we saw debut this window could make a World Cup roster right now and if we expect Mauricio Pochettino to remain at the helm of the USMNT until 2030. Finally, in One for the Road, Alexi and Mosse discuss reports that Copa America will be coming back to the States in 2028.
