FM Soccer Talk

Local adult leagues have resumed for the first time since the break but there are still people looking for a place to play. Which league is right for you and what are you looking to get out of it? What are some of the challenges players are facing with the return of play? Tito, Paolo, and Franco discuss some of the adult leagues in CT and a new league that is catching fire in Bridgeport. 

After a week of watching the MLS, Paolo finally gives us his feedback on the league and the teams. We preview the UEFA Champions League matches and choose our favorites for the matches ahead. Franco provides a quick recap of the friendly match between Bridgeport United FC and Newtown Pride FC. 

Tito, Paolo, and Franco discuss sponsorships in soccer and the overwhelming influx of opportunities. There's no doubt that sponsors are essential to the sport but where do we draw the line or is it already too late? 

Tito, Paolo, and Franco discuss what is considered "good". Are players today as good as the previous generation. Should a 40-year-old, really be able to keep up with a teenager? Is soccer-tennis good for you? Is Tuesday Night Futbol the best run? How many good players does Bridgeport United FC have? Are you a good teammate if you don't kneel during the national anthem? 

Tito, Paolo, and Franco reflect on their father's day and finally have REAL soccer to talk about. From Sunday Morning Soccer to Tuesday Night Futbol, to across the pond; the EPL, LaLiga, Bundesliga, and the Serie — we break down the good the bad and the ugly. No more eGaming, No contest or battles. Just good old-fashioned soccer — and it's on every day, it sounds different but it's still the same game we know and love.  

Tito and Paolo discuss the transformation of soccer players who became coaches. Breaking down the good, the bad, and the ugly. Coaching is not for everyone and there's no evidence that says you need to be a good player to be a good coach. Then again, there are some great players who are also great coaches. In this episode, the guys share their thoughts and theories about it all. 

The creators of Soccertown USA, Tom McCabe and Kirk Rudell, share some "behind the scenes" stories about the making of the greatest American soccer documentary ever made. 

Every soccer player in America knows the names; Ramos, Meola, and Harkes. But do you know how their careers began? Join us as we talk about,  Soccertown USA,  a documentary by U.S. Soccer Historian, Tom McCabe. The 68-minute journey tells the story of the boys from Kearny, NJ — from the streets, to playing against Italy in Rome, to finally leading a USA team in the 1994 World Cup.
