Happy Soccer Podcast Day. If you haven't guessed it by now, the podcast today will mostly focus on the Columbus Crew firing Caleb Porter.

Gone after a season where the team missed the playoffs for a second straight year, Porter leaves behind a talented roster with some obvious holes.

Bone and Beam spent a good amount of time trying to give realistic assessments of where the team stands, what they should be looking for in their next head coach, and what level of accountability should fall to the players for this moment?

As always, we'd love to hear from you - @bonebeamunited on twitter.

On this week's show, the guys open up talking about just how ridiculous Erling Haaland continues to be. PLEASE NOTE: Bone drops a bunch of expletives in discussing Haaland's absurd play. This is your warning. Listener Discretion Advised (2:12).

Next, they welcome Arsenal back to relevance and discuss their strong start to the premier league season (11:05).

Then, it was time. It was time to discuss the Columbus Crew. They start with the 2-2 draw against Charlotte & how this team just cannot help themselves in giving up late goals (17:32). Along with that, the guys break down the playoff scenarios for the Crew to make the postseason (25:20) and debate whether or not they even want the team to make the playoffs & what's best for the future of the club (28:20).

After, the guys talk Crew 2 ahead of their MLS Next Pro Cup game this weekend (35:30). Finally, they very briefly hit on the Champions league and a couple of classic soccer quotes are now in the dictionary (40:27).
