James Rodríguez to Minnesota United sounds like a FIFA career mode glitch, but it might actually be happening — and we break down whether the most random transfer imaginable could work for both MLS and James himself. Plus, we take a hard look at once-bright USMNT stars whose momentum has stalled, before diving into the latest chaos from around the soccer world, including Real Madrid controversy, awkward press conferences, and some truly bizarre Cristiano Ronaldo headlines.

Another good-to-great guest joins the show as Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Charlie Davies welcome in USMNT and Derby County to break down his red-hot form in the Championship, the Rams' playoff push, and his decision to move to England (02:48).

The guys then react to reports linking James Rodríguez with Minnesota United (32:56). Does the Colombian superstar have any idea what Midwest winters are like, and would this be a true needle-mover for the Loons and MLS?
