Summary: On this episode of the Yanks Abroad Podcast, host Christopher McCollum is joined by the usual crew of panelists; Brian Sciaretta, John Kretlow, Jamie Hill and Mathew Wagner put their minds together to produce an information filled hour of YA news and opinion. One of the denser episodes in recent memory, the show started off with weekend highlights from the gang, followed by a short discussion Clint Dempsey's subpar performance against Chelsea over the weekend. Moving on from Dempsey, a more in depth look is taken at Landon Donovan's recent comments about his chances of playing in the next World Cup being "50/50." Moving into the second half of the show, the pace quickened up and topics of the Norwegian and Mexican title chases are brought up, as well as looks at Alex Smith in the A-League, Maurice Edu's continued problems at Stoke, and the expiring contracts of Alejandro Bedoya, Mix Diskerud and Conor O'Brien. The show is concluded with a chat about CONCACAF Champions League play, and the U-17 National Team.
