One of my favorite players (doesn't hurt that I was born in Missouri too)! Always rooting for Josh. Have a great Copa and an awesome 2024-25 season at Norwich! Go Sarge!

[@cstew8656]

Good to hear Josh’s ankle is feeling better and he’s training. You be killing it today, Rog! How many more you gonna drop tomorrow? Can’t wait for Sunday!

[@SM-cg5ny]

The only thing Rog “kills” is the vibe. Dude talks nonstop and has to describe everything for 5 minutes. Is this an interview with the players or is it 30 mins of rog talking

[@JoePotter-wd5zh]

As a Norwich fan, it is amazing because Sergeant is at number one striker at Norwich have got his a very good striker

[@conflictserum1]

He is the most complete #9 we have. Maybe not the best in one area but the best overall.

[@hoekuandbreezyreacts597]

That’s how American strikers seem to be they don’t shine at anything but their good enough at everything, coaches that know how to use that get the most out of American players see pulisic

[@StudioGREGORIO]

~~~ Healing vibes to that foot Josh )))))))))))))))))) Hope to see you score in the tournament. CHEERS !!! )))))))))))))))

[@jpminick9684]

My goodness this show is wonderful. Roger is a poet as an interviewer. His line on what the work ethic of what a footballer should be got me. Josh is great as well. Wonderful all around

[@CRUNCHYYRAPSUPREME]

hope he stays healthy!

[@hoekuandbreezyreacts597]

America potential is unreal fr

[@tripperdelaluna1]

Brendan, Gio, and Joe - what is this called?

[@dominicschaeffer909]

and the BEST mustard on the planet, Norwich. After WWI when the mustard gas factories were closed, Norwich turned Colman’s into a national treasure! ;)

If he's fit he'll be another US striker option. Berhalter has no idea who his best striker is. Sargent, Balogun, Pepi, Wright, Ferreira. None of them have stood out as the automatic first choice. I suspect whoever is chosen will be dropped if they fail to score in any particular game.

[@ladraff9702]

Tim Ream playing even before that 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@kalbeeRaimer]

Sounds like josh wont be starting in the Group Stage.

Or probably at all, because the US won't get very far.

[@moloko5]

Dude hasn't scored for the US in five years

[@s0ccer96]

He’s dealt with injuries. He’s brilliant whenever he plays, just gotta stay healthy.

[@moloko5]

@@s0ccer96 he’s been terrible for four years before injury… 20 games and no goals

[@rylandz]

@@moloko5 He scored 16 in one of the top leagues in the world this last season. More than anyone on the US team currently. Speaks for itself that things have changed…

[@moloko5]

@@rylandz championship is not a top league its second division barely above MLS in Opta ratings - what a joke comment that doesn’t deserve a response

[@rylandz]

@@moloko5 You obviously don’t watch championship or mls. I would argue that a decent chunk of the Championship would compete with most teams in the other European top leagues, bar the obvious ones like PSG, BVB, Bayern Munich, Inter and AC etc. The quality at the top end is getting better and better, and generally the teams competing for the play offs (Sargent’s team) can go toe to toe with a decent amount of premier league opposition on a good day.
