IRVINE, Calif. \u2014 Cristian Roldan is not the face of the U.S. men\u2019s national team, not the midfielder around whom Mauricio Pochettino builds his best lineup, not the player casual fans tune in to see.<\/p>

But at some point during this World Cup, Roldan may be exactly the kind of player Pochettino needs.<\/p>\n

The United States has already won its group<\/a> and secured its place in the knockout round. Its next defining game will come July 1 in Santa Clara, likely against Bosnia. Before then comes a group-stage finale against Turkey that offers Pochettino a chance to rest his starters and test the depth of a roster that will need more than its best 11 to make a deep run.<\/p>\n

It should\u2019ve been Roldan\u2019s best opportunity to see action in this tournament. With Tyler Adams carrying a yellow card from the Americans\u2019 opening match, there is little reason to expose one of the U.S. team\u2019s most important players. But Roldan has been battling a muscle strain, leaving his status in doubt, and may still need to wait his turn.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s used to it.<\/p>\n

The 31-year-old midfielder\u2019s national team life has often required patience, flexibility and a willingness to measure his value in ways that do not always appear on a stat sheet. He didn\u2019t play a single minute in the 2022 World Cup and has not yet seen the pitch in this year\u2019s tournament.<\/p>\n

So when Pochettino called Roldan \u201cthe perfect player\u201d in the fall, the phrase felt almost comically oversize. Pochettino, after all, has coached generational superstars. And Roldan has spent his entire professional career with MLS\u2019s Seattle Sounders, and even he didn\u2019t think he\u2019d have a spot on this World Cup roster.<\/p>\n

\u201cObviously, very surprised,\u201d he said of Pochettino\u2019s generous assessment. \u201cLook, this is a coach that has coached Mbapp\u00e9 and Neymar, Messi, and then for him to call me the perfect player \u2014 a guy in his 30s at the Sounders his whole career \u2014 it\u2019s obviously very humbling.\u201d<\/p>\n

But to Pochettino, perfection is not the same as stardom. He was describing something closer to trust. Roldan is not perfect because he can do what the best players in the world do. He is perfect, in a coach\u2019s sense, because he is willing to do what a team needs \u2014 in games, in training, away from the field \u2014 without needing the role to flatter him.<\/p>\n

\u201cI try to do what\u2019s best for the guys in that locker room,\u201d Roldan said in an interview.<\/p>\n

Roldan knows his game is not always obvious to viewers tracking goals, assists and highlights. He talks instead about smaller things: getting teammates on the right side of the ball, making sure the team is organized defensively on throw-ins, being vocal enough that the group stays connected. Even this week, as he has nursed the muscle strain that could complicate his availability against Turkey, his value is tied less to one fixed assignment than to a broader reliability \u2014 the ability to understand what his side needs and try to provide it.<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of people that maybe watch the game don\u2019t understand the nuances of the game, from a coach\u2019s standpoint,\u201d Roldan said. \u201cThey watch, they\u2019re so detail-oriented, so they watch every piece of footage and film that they see. And so, I think the small details \u2014 it makes a big difference.\u201d<\/p>\n

World Cup rosters are often discussed as collections of established stars and young prospects. But tournaments also reward steadiness. They reward players who can enter cold, follow instructions, survive difficult minutes and accept that their role may change every few days.<\/p>\n

Roldan has thought about that part more than most.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s the reality of things,\u201d he said. \u201cYou have to be flexible. You have to put your pride aside when you put your jersey on for the national team.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

For a long stretch, Roldan had reason to wonder whether he would ever put that jersey on again. He made his national team debut in 2017 at age 21 and found himself on and off the roster for a decade.<\/p>\n

Each roster that came and went without his name made the path back feel narrower. Last summer, following the Gold Cup, he did not receive the preliminary roster email he had been hoping for. He was left off the team that competed in the Nations League tournament in 2023 and the Copa Am\u00e9rica in 2024.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy heart sank,\u201d Roldan said.<\/p>\n

He was 30 years old. He had a family. He had built a decorated career in Seattle. He had gone to the 2022 World Cup, but the next one began to feel less like a realistic goal than a fading possibility.<\/p>

\u201cWhat really are the chances of me getting called up?\u201d he remembered thinking.<\/p>\n

For a while, Roldan turned the uncertainty into a punch line. He would refer to himself as a retired U.S. national team player. His brother Alex heard the humor \u2014 and also what was underneath it.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe probably was using that to deflect that it was actually a possibility that he wouldn\u2019t be going back anymore,\u201d said Alex Roldan, a Sounders teammate.<\/p>\n

Then came the late call in September 2025. The U.S. squad had some injuries, and Roldan was invited back into camp. He did not arrive as part of some long-term master plan. He was filling a temporary hole.<\/p>\n

But Roldan saw an opportunity. His goal, he said, was to show \u201csomething different\u201d \u2014 his personality, his work ethic, his ability to compete in training, his \u201chate-to-lose attitude.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd that grit,\u201d he said, \u201cthat is infectious, that gets the best out of players.\u201d<\/p>\n

He has been called in ever since.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s such an important part of this team and culture and the energy of this group,\u201d said goalkeeper Matt Freese, \u201creally bringing guys together.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

As this World Cup roster was announced last month, Roldan was in a Sounders team meeting when his phone vibrated with the news. Teammates were soon hugging him, perhaps none as meaningful as Alex, who had seen \u201call the ups and downs.\u201d<\/p>\n

To Alex, the call-up was not just another achievement. It was a reward for the way his brother had navigated the possibility that the national team had passed him by.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s put a ton of work to get to this point,\u201d Alex said. \u201cObviously, to accomplish a World Cup is an amazing achievement. But I think he, himself, would tell you that he\u2019s a little bit more proud about this one, just with the whole storyline of being excluded from the national team and then coming back.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alex has also seen, in Seattle, the qualities Pochettino now values with the national team. His work ethic and versatility have become core to Roldan\u2019s soccer identity, and he can line up as a right or central midfielder, as well as a right back.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s always going to put his head down and work very hard, regardless of the situation,\u201d Alex said. \u201cHe\u2019s a workaholic.\u201d<\/p>\n

Roldan\u2019s return also reflects a notable shift under Pochettino. The Argentine coach arrived as an outsider to the American soccer ecosystem but has shown a willingness to lean on MLS players in a way his predecessor did not at the end. Eight of the 26 players on this World Cup roster play in MLS. On Gregg Berhalter\u2019s final major tournament roster, for the 2024 Copa Am\u00e9rica, there were three MLS players among the 26, and none appeared in a game.<\/p>\n

Thursday\u2019s match won\u2019t alter the United States\u2019 standing in this tournament, but it can show whether the roster has the kind of second layer required for a longer run and whether players who have spent the World Cup waiting can keep the team moving forward.<\/p>\n

For Roldan, whether it\u2019s Thursday or later, it would show something more personal: that the national team still has use for him.<\/p>
