Soccered Out

In this one, the lads discuss Ronaldo's fantastic debut along with the Red Devils poor display in Switzerland. MLS is also on the agenda, with Mickey Mouse FC trending downward while the 5 Stripes continue to score goal after goal as they climb the standings. Nick is high on a Southampton draw & Brighton's winning ways to come to an end this coming week, while Zach is backing West Ham to earn a point hosting his beloved Reds (tired from the strip to the Alps in mid-week) and Liverpool to crush any renewed optimism from Palace at Anfield.

Can you name the last time an 18 year old has saved an entire country's fate? Ricardo Pepi did that tonight for the United States, scoring a goal and adding two assists in a 4-1 win over Honduras in World Cup Qualifying. The guys live react to the second half as planned with the United States completely turning around a performance that began as one of the worst in its history and ended in glory. The USA now take 5 points into the October window with 3 winnable games (2 at home) coming up. Nick and Zach also provide their Premier League locks and hot takes of the upcoming weekend. They're still really high on the Buzzin Bees, but isn't everyone?

The guys discuss the United States Men 0-0 draw in San Salvador. Some say scoreless draws are captivating displays of soccer. This was not one of them. Canada and Honduras are next up, and Nick is happy to point out that West Ham are currently 2nd while the Gunners are looking up at the 19 teams ahead of them.

The guys react to the surprise signing of Cristiano Ronaldo by Manchester United and how this will affect the Red Devils' chances of lifting the trophy at the end of the season. He's Coming Home!

The lads discuss the USMNT World Cup Qualifying Roster along with previewing the upcoming 3 matches v. El Salvador, Canada and Honduras. Also, they're 7-1 on predictions so far through 2 weeks of the Premier League season (Thanks alot, Arsenal).

*The boys were perfect with their predictions from the pitch last weekend. United and Chelsea win as Locks of the Week and Brentford and Tottenham wins were not such bad takes after all. Atlanta United continue on with their winning ways with Toronto looming as the Red Devils, Liverpool, and Chelsea begin the season on could nine. Zach offers up a surprising Game of the Week for Saturday, and Nick is 1/38th of the way from his Irons finishing Top 4.

The guys keep it real simple in this one. A Premier League preview full of BOLD predictions (mostly from Nick... WEST HAM!?!?) and a little chalk (United, City, Chelsea...blah blah blah). Also, optimism abounds with Atlanta United as the 5 Stripes have signed Luis Araujo from Lille OSC in France and they actually won a game over the weekend bringing them within six points of Columbus and a potential playoff spot. Yeah, I know... we were just as shocked as you.

Our longest episode yet... but that's what happens when the USA Junior Varsity beats Mexico for the Gold Cup and you have 3 Manchester United supporters talking all things Red Devils. Our good friend AJ Howard joins us to discuss United and what fans of the Premier League can expect from Ole's squad this season. Also, today marks 1 episode (in a row) where Nick doesn't compare an Atlanta United player to a Disney villain.

The guys preview the Merseyside clubs Liverpool and Everton for the upcoming season, along with Leicester (Lester, not Lie-Chester). Nick changes his mind and decides to support his country against the Asian Champions Qatar in the Gold Cup Semifinals and no show is complete without the guys touching on the soap opera saga that is Atlanta United right now (finally some good news, maybe?!)

Our good friend Jacob joins us to discuss the calamity that is Atlanta United right now and how Josef Martinez has furthered entrenched himself as the one true King of ATL while Eales, Boca and Heinze appear to all be jesters. The guys then preview the London clubs of Arsenal and Chelsea for the 2021-22 season, all the while trying to keep Jacob from getting his hopes up (yet again) over the Gunners.
