U.S. Men’s National Team head coach Mauricio Pochettino indicated he will make several changes to the starting lineup for their final group stage match against Türkiye on Thursday at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. With Group D already secured after wins against Paraguay and Australia, changes are likely to limit the risk of suspensions for players on yellow cards. Notable absences may include players dealing with injuries, such as Christian Pulisic, who returned to training, and Cristian Roldan, who is doubtful due to a quad injury. Pochettino aims to ensure his team enters the knockout rounds in optimal condition.
