  • Chelsea F.C

    Good pod, I like how there’s not bias on any of them, Juls and Gab show is really good and I like how they take every team seriously, no matter where they come from. This is amazing because there’s not many soccer podcasts, and I like how they cover a lot of topics, even though they miss things sometimes it’s still really good. I think Chelsea will win the champion league, just my opinion tho.

    Great podcast. My go to. But the audio volume is always too low. Please fix this. The episode from 3/2/26 is an example of poor audio

  • Mixed up priorities

    Bayerns just won the league over Dortmund with a last second goal and it’s not even the lead story on the show? Imagine that with City vs Arsenal or Real vs Barca… just call it PL + La Liga FC or change the programming.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

United States Fail Belgium Test
Q: Should the US change formation or personnel to protect vulnerabilities exposed by Belgium?
Yes, they should consider adjusting defensive shape and adding cover on the flanks, while also ensuring their attackers have players to link with; the frontline needs better support and movement to break down compact defenses.
United States Fail Belgium Test
Q: What did you make of the results and the performance against Belgium?
The panel agrees the US showed positives in build-up but were outclassed in transition and 1v1 duels; the defensive setup and midfield support need refinement, and Christian Pulisic's form is pivotal for turning the World Cup into a success.
Are Germany World Cup Contenders?
Q: Where do you see Germany ending up in the World Cup?
The consensus is that a quarter-final finish would be respectable, with better outcomes possible but not guaranteed given the competition from Argentina, Brazil, France, and others.
Futbol W: Crystal Dunn Debut! + USWNT Secures SheBelieves Cup + Boston Legacy Outlook + Drippin or Trippin + Top 5 Goals of the Week
Q: What does success look like for Boston in their first year?
Success means forming a clear identity for the team, making the playoffs as a potential bonus given the expanded field, and continuing to build and refine that identity without overreacting to short-term results.
The Football Reporters: Dowman’s rise & Calvert-Lewin’s England hopes
Q: What was your reflecting on the season so far?
Calvert-Lewin describes Leeds' season as good overall, contingent on finishing higher in the table, and emphasizes the need for consistency and staying in the Premier League as the main objective.
