USWNT Players Crucial to NWSL Club Success

The NWSL kicked off season five this past weekend and, with the tendering of a new collective bargaining agreement less than two weeks ago, many members of the USWNT joined their clubs for the start of play. Even though players like Carli Lloyd and Alex Morgan have opted to play abroad, the USWNT remains an important part of the league. Non-NT talent continues to play an increased role both on and off the field as the level of overall talent rises in the NWSL. Still, in order to make a strong push for the playoffs, each team is going to need certain USWNT players to step up and play a key role in their success.
