Jeremiah and Aaron take a bunch of questions from listeners that inquire about Brian Schmetzer's contract situation, whether advancing in the Leagues Cup is actually desirable and what we want the starting lineup to look like going forward.

That was not what the Sounders needed or were really expecting was it? Coming off a disappointing loss to the Earthquakes, and needing a win badly, the Sounders played much better but still had to settle for a 1-1 tie with FC Dallas.

The Sounders have now not scored more than one goal or won consecutive games at home in about three months. This while playing good by almost all the underlying numbers. Still, the sounders head into the Leagues Cup break not in an entirely awful position, fourth in the West and only one point out of second. We put it all in perspective and assess the Sounders' chances in Leagues Cup.

Since their inaugural season of 2022, Ballard FC has taken the USL League 2 world by storm. Not only are they consistently filling up the 1,500-person capacity at Interbay Stadium, but they're winning a ton of games as well. In the recently concluded regular season, they finished 10-1-1 to win the Northwest Division and are now hosting the Western Conference quarterfinals and finals this weekend. You can buy tickets here.

To discuss their past and future, we brought on co-founders Sam Zisette and Lamar Neagle.

Remember all those good vibes from a couple of days ago? Those seem to be pretty much gone after the Sounders looked very flat in a 2-0 loss to the San Jose Earthquakes. Going with a very lightly rotated lineup, the Sounders looked like a team that was not at anywhere close to its best. Mark Kastner joins Jeremiah for this quick pod.

Welcome to another edition of Nos Audietis, sponsored by Full Pull Wines, Watson’s Counter and our Substack subscribers. This is episode 414 and We’re recording on Tuesday, July 11, 2023. I am your host Jeremiah Oshan. Joining me today is my co-host Aaron Campeau and of course our producer Likkit. 

For the first time in three months, the Sounders are on a winning streak. Sure, it’s just two games but baby-steps people. Win No. 2 came in pretty satisfying style, beating Vancouver 3-2 on the road in a game where they erased two deficits.

They got two goals from Leo Chu and a game-winner from Yeimar in the 91st minute, the first regular-season stoppage time winner since the season-opener in 2020.

The Sounders finally scored a goal at home. It only took 405 minutes, but they did and it was enough to snap a five-game winless run. As luck would have it, they also moved up to second in the Western Conference table thanks to LAFC losing to the LA Galaxy, allowing the Sounders to inch ahead on goal-difference.

The goal, it should be said, was very well-taken. It started with Obed Vargas driving forward to find Nicolas Lodeiro, who worked a 1-2 with Léo Chu, who then found Albert Rusnak for a left-footed finish from about six yards out.

Sure, it came after the Houston Dynamo were reduced to 10 men but we are in no position to be questioning goals at this point.

Is everything fixed? Of course not. But it sure is a lot more fun to talk about wins than a scoring drought.

The Houston Dynamo have been one of the surprising teams this season, sitting fourth in the Western Conference after a horrible 2022. But they've only claimed five points on the road. We talked to Victor Araiza of The Striker to get his sense of the situation.

The Sounders’ scoring woes extended into another game, as they settled for yet another scoreless draw, this time at home to Orlando City. The Sounders have now gone scoreless in three straight home game and have been shut out in 4 of 5 overall. 

The Sounders are still somehow in third place and only three points out of first, but this is becoming increasingly brutal to watch.
