So how does this work. The tournament games are hosted over the two continents? Who gets to host the deciding game?

Also did heads roll after the US soccer team debacle? I read an article that said America finally has a top ten player in the world on its team. What happened?
10 games each in Mexico and Canada with the US hosting, I believe, the remaining 60 games including the final at MetLife stadium. Pulisic, while amazing, is not a top ten player. I don't even know where he would rank right now, but by the time the next two world cups come around I could see him being one of the best players in the world. The team that they're molding for the next qualifying run is young and has a very high ceiling.

First, they need to hire the right people for the GM and head coaching job. The federation panicked when Jurgen struggled, but putting Arena back in charge was a huge mistake, imo. Honestly, it would suck for KC, but Peter Vermes would be an excellent hire.

The final is in Jersey?? What's the soccer following like in NYC?

Do we know what US cities will be hosting games?

Based on my experience, they'll visit a bunch of national parks while they're here. Europeans seem to love our national parks.

Once they realize they not welcome they'll go back where they come from

If they play in Denver, I might rent some rooms in my house out at an exorbitant rate. Does anybody know if the soccer fans will be like this...

...or like this? It will impact my decision.

They were talking on 610 this morning like KC was a done deal to host a game.

So then in reality KC's chances are probably 5%.
