Player, position, club
1. Christian Pulisic, forward, Chelsea
Now age 23, the Pennsylvania native remains the most dynamic and dangerous American player.
2. Matt Turner, goalkeeper, New England Revolution
He'll join Arsenal this summer on a deal worth up to $10 million for the Revolution.
3. Walker Zimmerman, defender, Nashville SC
The Georgia native is a key part of the American defense, especially of late.
4. Tim Weah, forward, Lille (France)
He missed Sunday's 2-0 loss because his vaccination status didn't meet Canada's entry requirements.
5. Weston McKennie, midfielder, Juventus
The Texas native has eight goals and three assists in 30 career USMNT appearances.
Minnesota started only two strikers against Seattle, leaving Sang Bin Jeong and Joseph Rosales to provide the width behind Teemu Pukki and Kelvin Yeboah.
