Tyler Adams OUT, Gio Reyna’s MLS fit, Mexico a World Cup favorite?

Alexi Lalas and David Mosse are back for a new episode of State of the Union. Alexi gives his thoughts on the USMNT’s November roster and the news that Tyler Adams has joined the likes of Christian Pulisic and Weston McKennie, no longer on the roster. Gio Reyna and Sergiño Dest both made appearances for their clubs this weekend but there is still no sign of the injured Antonee “Jedi” Robinson, leading Mauricio Pochettino to admit he is “worried” about the fullback. In the States, the conference semifinals are set in the MLS Cup Playoffs where the likes of Lionel Messi and Son Heung-Min are still alive and fighting for a title. In #AskAlexi, we argue against the idea that MLS isn’t good for player development and in his One for the Road, Alexi applauds El Tri youngster, Gilberto Mora, for his confidence in Mexico’s chances to win next summer’s World Cup.
