Yes, the January/February window is a critical time for most European leagues as players are being rested (or used to rest starters) in advance of the final push into regular season and Cup playoffs.  So, its almost always MLS players with some Northern European leagues and Liga MX sprinkled in.

That said, after the last year, the USMNT organization has seen hopefully everyone and now its time to start settling with a 'core' group of say 20 to 25 players to work with in order to build-up a culture, playing style, etc, especially with the Gold Cup now on the horizon.  I think the next international window is in March and that roster will be telling.

Of the names on this roster, I would say the following maybe part of the core with the rest filling-in for the 'core' group who play in Europe: 1) Sean Johnson GK, 2) Zack Steffen, 3) Michael Bradley , 4) Sebastian Lletget  , 5) Djordje Mihailovic, 6) Cristian Roldan, 7) Wil Trapp, 8) Gyasi Zardes.  Thoughts?

PS - Any catch that Tim Howard has announced that 2019 will be his last profesional season?   Going to miss him.
