  • Poch

    Why does Herc hate Pochettino? Poch can’t win with that guy no matter what he does. Damned if he does damned if he doesn’t. His criticisms are starting to lack credibility.

  • Mediocre

    The panelists are truly mediocre. Other than Stevie, Shaka, Robbo and Gav most are unlistenable. LeBoeuf needs to go. Barely speaks English, just total word salad. Nonsensical.

    Nedum is City Fan TV. Thinks he’s smart but says the same shiyyite everyday. “my friend” “you say that…”

    Can’t stand listening to him.

    I know it’s audio from a tv show but the production values are terrible. Dan and Kay are v. good.

Q: How did this Spanish team expose anything negative, maybe, about the US Women's National Team?
