5/19/20261 hr 15 min
Jozy Altidore is getting Unfiltered! On Unfiltered Soccer with Landon Donovan and Tim Howard, our hosts are joined by their former USMNT teammate, Jozy Altidore. He’s talking about what happened with Gregg Berhalter after the US failed to qualify for the World Cup in 2018, why Sunderland wasn’t a good fit for him, and the future at US Soccer for Yunus Musah. Plus, the guys talk Chris Richards’ injury and Auston Trusty helping Celtic bring home another trophy. In the AT&T Mailbag, the guys are diving into when players find out if they made the starting XI – and some very shady behavior to make sure they do.
