  • Ads Ads Ads

    I get you have to pay the bills. But the amount of ads you pack into your 7-10 min clips is beyond ridiculous. Also, the slow play to add the full hours or full show over the short clips? pretty lame.

Hour 1: Why America will always be a second-tier soccer nation
Q: What formation did the U.S. start with, and did that reflect tactical uncertainty?
callers discussed a 3-5-2 setup versus a more attacking 4-3-2-1, suggesting the coach may have shifted tactics or was uncertain how best to approach Belgium at the tournament stage.
Another very cheesy question.
