  • Thorough review

    I enjoy the opinion diversity on the podcast.

    The analysis helps a lot as i watch most every match.

    I always learn from each of their episode as my background includes only a decade of watching soccer ( yes, ⚽soccer/futbol!).

    Importantly, the group is balanced in approach. How? A very difficult ‘24 season thus far with an underperforming BVB organization yet not too negative analysis…. balanced with the clear positives. And there are positives yet the analysts do not shy from issues. Balance.... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

104. Fan Corner Episode with Brooklyn Borussen
Q: What about the potential Gittens move to Chelsea — would that be good for Dortmund?
There is a belief that Gittens could be a good fit for a top club like Chelsea, provided the system and minutes align, but there are concerns about him fitting Dortmund's current tactical setup.
104. Fan Corner Episode with Brooklyn Borussen
Q: Is Kovac the right fit to lead Dortmund forward, given the current squad and injuries?
Consensus leaned toward not fully convinced he has all the pieces yet, but there is a willingness to give him time, especially with a proper preseason to implement his ideas and shape the squad.
104. Fan Corner Episode with Brooklyn Borussen
Q: What are your thoughts on Dortmund's performance in the Club World Cup so far?
Opinions ranged from mixed appreciation for the level of competition to frustration with perceived effort and tactical rigidity, with calls for more leadership on the pitch and a clearer squad-building philosophy.
103. Rob Turner Returns! Jobe, CWC, and more!
Q: What do you kind of think about Jamie Gittens staying at the club after bids were rejected?
It's a difficult situation; Gittens showed huge potential and had moments of early-season promise, but his fit within Kovac's system and the club's shift toward a mentality-led approach is guiding the decision to keep him or move him depending on the club's broader plans.
103. Rob Turner Returns! Jobe, CWC, and more!
Q: Again, the reporting on this one, and in recent years this has happened, but there's just a bit of separation. I don't really think that it's that far apart to change my opinion on it, but what are your thoughts on this move?
The move is logical and low-risk in terms of settling in, given Jobe's connections to the city and family; however, it carries high expectations due to the transfer fee and the need to perform immediately, with inevitable comparisons to Jude Bellingham.
