Who will partner with Girma in the back? Who’s gonna be the Dunn replacement? Will Sanchez make a mark in this window? Who’s gonna shine in the midfield? Lots to mull over ahead of a two-pack of friendlies with Iceland and then Argentina in Louisville on Wednesday.

Gotta show for the ball with energy and intelligence if you want to beat a good or even committed pressing team. We didn't do it.

Clearly a conversation enjoyed by everyone involved.

A good old fashioned roster projection chat with Greg and Belz.
