Eric Wynalda breaks down the real takeaways from the USMNT’s 2025 Gold Cup journey — the good, the bad, and the brutally honest.

From the controversial Mexico loss to Mauricio Pochettino’s emotionless approach, Eric shares why fans need to stop yelling about penalties and start asking the right questions. Who earned a second look? Who won’t be getting a call back? And why is winning in Europe still the ultimate benchmark?

This isn’t a postmortem — it’s a wake-up call.

– Why Poch isn’t emotionally tied to USMNT (and that’s OK)
– The MLS vs Europe conversation, reignited
– Only six players from this squad are 2026-ready (and Eric will tell you who next episode)
