Rabona Boys

The Rabona Boys are back with alot to get off their chests! The Sounders had one of their trademark struggle-games against Sporting Kansas City, and neither our hosts are impressed. The Sounders' performance was lackluster and disappointing, but that was overshadowed by excessive violence, the league refs' refusal to protect players, and the bush-league response issued by the league's social media arm. Listen as Vyn Skully & Nik Solo discuss the events on the night and how repercussions might affect MLS and it's relationship with it's own fans.

The Rabona Boys are back with a huge breakdown of Newcastle, their new owners, and some very opinionated takes on what their multi-billion dollar takeover will mean for the rest of football. Then we talk Gini Wijnaldium at PSG and review the Sounders' performances for the week

The Rabona Boys kick off this episode by recapping the Champion's League group stage games so far. How has there only been 2 to 3 rounds and its already the most interesting club competition this season? PSG have the best squad on paper but they don't look good in real life because of ONE position. Bayern look indefatigable, Chelsea are shithousing their way to the top, and Real Madrid lost to a team from a country that doesn't even exist. After that, Vyn Skully previews the Liverpool-Man City derby and explains why he feels confident in Liverpool this season, and finally, the hosts dive into the Seattle Sounders and the rest of the regular season

The boys are back this week recapping the EPL weekend! Nik Solo recounts a wild North London Derby while in a state of constant ecstasy, and our hosts begin to ask important questions of Tottenham and Chelsea. Manchester City did something good and gave the rest of the league a blueprint on how to beat Chelsea (and all you need is a few billion pounds!) The Seattle Sounders are continuing their season of consistent highs and striking lows prompting Vyn Skully to break down the biggest issue with the team and the positives from the last few results.

The boys discuss Ronaldo scoring over the weekend and get into nostalgia they feel when they see him in the United shirt. Our hosts are old enough to remember a time when CR7 was a monster on the rise, reaching every bit of his potential under SAF at United. Then, the death machine known as Chelsea is discussed at length, and the boys get into it with each other over whether Man U or Chelsea is going to challenge Man City for a shot at the title. Liverpool look really good despite retaining their insanely thin bench, but the Soccer Gods are still demanding a blood sacrifice from the Reds every time they win a game. Tottenham look as though they're forever getting their feet together, Mikel Arteta saved his Arsenal job but is still worse than Brendan Rodgers and Leicester, and honestly, nobody cares about City. No really.

Old News

For Episode 14 our hosts geek out about the Seattle Sounders and MLS in general. Despite its reputation, MLS is one of the most exciting leagues in the world today, and Seattle are one of the biggest reasons why. The Sounders are taking the league by storm this season, and the Rabona Boys can't help but get excited when talking about them. Nik Solo relays his experiences watching the league again for the first time in years and describes how he feels about the shiny new 3-man back line, while Sounders-obsessed Vyn Skully provides information on the team, their performances, and the club's aspirations for this season.

That's right, Episode 13 is here right after Episode 12! Ya'll, it's been one match day so far and our resident Arsenal fan is BIG MAD. Listen in glee as Nik Solo has a conniption discussing Mikel Arteta and what he's done to the team (did we mention there's been one game so far this season?). After Edu gets eviscerated, the boys get back to business and predict the EPL top 6 this season, and explain why Manchester United will finish worryingly high this season.

The Rabona Boys are back this week with a smorgasbord of topics. The boys relive their experience going to a Seattle Sounders game and how different soccer games are in real life. The transfer fee of Jack Grealish to Manchester City has left a bad taste in everyone's mouth, and so has the fact that almost everyone is too broke to buy players (except the Money Teams of course.) Harry Kane turned into a diva and had an entire transfer fiasco that was "somehow" excused by the English media, but we'll see if Nuno Espirito Santo will accept that kind of behavior in his new squad. We still can't wrap our heads around what PSG has done this summer, and is anyone paying attention to the moves Crystal Palace and Aston Villa are making?? 

The Boys are back and discussing the English transfer window! Manchester United are getting scary good deals completed and Paris Saint-Germain seem to have realized how to put a real squad together, and have basically bought the next Champion's League title. Chelsea and Man City are suspiciously quiet and they think no one has noticed, meanwhile Arsenal are being linked with good players (and even bought some!), and Liverpool... have been linked with no one in particular and essentially have the same squad they did in 2018. Join the Rabona Boys as they air out their frustrations with their respective clubs, and explain why Man Utd still don't have a complete squad to elevate themselves to the top (yet.)
