  • What am I Missing?

    It feels like this is the audio from a tv show. Missing so much context. It is absolutely unlistenable.

  • 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.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Real Madrid Falter Again
Q: Can a new manager fix the issues?
The panel suggests changes are needed across tactics and attitude, but a different manager alone may not suffice without changes in players' approach.
Real Madrid Falter Again
Q: What does this draw mean for Real Madrid's title chances?
It substantially dents their hopes, widening the gap to the leaders and highlighting the need for a decisive performance in upcoming fixtures.
Arteta's Arson-al
Q: What should Arsenal do to maximize their chances against Manchester City this weekend?
The consensus is that Arsenal need a more balanced approach, combining disciplined defense with sharper, more direct transition play to threaten City without inviting pressure, while acknowledging that City's current form and mindset make it a tough assignment.
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.
