  • Great information and insight

    Really enjoying this podcast! I gain a lot of information even though I am just coming back to soccer and really starting to follow the MLS. (Im an Orlando City fan). I learn a lot of about strategy and how teams play and just love the in depth analysis even if I don’t fully understand it yet. Keep up the good work!
