Ladies and gentlemen, we are officially just 307 days away from the opening fixture of the 2026 World Cup hosted in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. With that being said, in this article I will discuss some American players who I think have the most to prove going into this season. Whether that’s an MLS player whose season is already well underway, or one of our guys playing in Europe whose roster spot is in contention, I will talk about players from both sides.

San Diego FC’s inaugural MLS season has reached the halfway mark — and they’re exceeding expectations. Sitting second in the Western Conference, we break down what’s gone right, what still needs work, and what to watch for in the second half of the season.

On May 14, 2025, La Gazzetta di Parma, the main news outlet here in Parma, published an article I wrote about my experience interning for Parma Partecipazioni Calcistiche (PPC) while studying abroad in Parma for the semester. Writing in Italian, I spoke about what I accomplished interning for them in these 4 months and the invaluable lessons I learned being immersed in the culture of such a historic club, Parma Calcio 1913.

League leaders Inter travel to 16th-placed Parma for their third game in 6 days. An eventful match awaits as an optimistic Parma looks to exploit a tired Inter side…

Last night, I had the opportunity to see the Derby della Madonnina at San Siro, for the semifinal of the Coppa Italia. The match finished 1-1, leaving it all to play for in the second leg in 3 weeks’ time. This game was important for Parma because Inter will travel to the Stadio Tardini on Saturday to face them. Inter will most definitely be tired because they played last Sunday, yesterday, and now Saturday. 3 matches in 6 days is not easy, and we’ll see how Inter look this weekend.

Up until the end of December, Chelsea was playing some incredible soccer and firmly contending for the title. Pundits everywhere were eating their words and it looked as if Chelsea’s new owners were finally being vindicated for their massive overhaul these last couple of years. However, Chelsea’s season has been tailing off since. A run of inconsistent results and uninspiring performances has now left Chelsea back in 4th place, 21 points off first-placed Liverpool after being as close as 3 points back earlier in the season.

San Diego FC made an unforgettable debut in MLS, securing a 2-0 victory over defending champions LA Galaxy. From the electric atmosphere created by traveling fans to Anders Dreyer's historic first (and second) goal, this match had it all. Read on for a full breakdown of the game and what this win means for San Diego's newest club. For the full video of my experience, check out our instagram @wecallitsoccer_podcast.
