David Mosse and special guest Stu Holden broke down the U.S. Women’s National Team SheBelieves roster for the February window. Emma Hayes called up her 23-player squad without Trinity Rodman, Sophia Smith, and Mallory Swanson. The guys were also fired up after an exciting day of Champions League action. Manchester City and Real Madrid went back and forth in a 5-goal thriller. Jude Bellingham recorded the winner in stoppage time. Weston McKennie shined in UCL leg-1 against PSV. He opened the scoring for Juventus with a screamer in the first half. With Ricardo Pepi out for the PSV season, Mosse and Stu spoke on the USMNT striker pool heading into the CONCACAF Nations League. (5;46)

To wrap the show the duo discussed the 22-0 US Men’s U-17 win over the U.S. Virgin Island, Stu’s youth sports conundrum, and Valentine’s Day plans.
