Players

The USMNT pool, ranked by relevance. Star a player to pin his matches on Pool Watch.

Relevance estimates how much each player is in the USMNT picture, from his squad selections in the current World Cup cycle (about four years), with the previous cycle counting less as new matches are played. Major tournaments and qualifiers count most and friendlies least; starts count more than bench call-ups; and recent matches count more than older ones. Goalkeepers are ranked by the depth chart. Young players still developing toward the senior team are placed on the same scale using their club level and playing time.

100 is the highest-rated player in the pool, so scores are relative. This is Slate's own model, not an official ranking. “Bench” means he was named to the matchday squad as a substitute.
