The Philadelphia Union suffered their first league defeat down in Atlanta for the first time since 2018, as the Union continue to concede the first goal in matches on the road. Todd discusses Tom Bogert's report of Jim Curtin signing a new contract with the Union through 2026 and what that stability means for the club. Todd also discusses his thoughts on Sunday's defeat to Atlanta United and how that's a game that the players and coaches will want to move on from because of poor formation choice, poor finishing, and poor service into the box are to blame again for another Union loss.
