Who are these guys?

Patrick Johnston brings Mike Martignago in to launch the 2017 season of the Whitecaps Weekly.

What to make of the additions of Brek Shea and Fredy Montero. (And Mauro Rosales!)

The Whitecaps have one clear task ahead of them this season: fix the defending. There was a lot which went wrong there, but there was a lot that went right a year before.

Warming up for pre-season

Two games since the last podcast.

Two games which tell us a lot. The Caps pulled out a big win over a very poor Galaxy side.

And they put up a very brave effort against a very good Tigres side.

Mike Martignago and Patrick Johnston break it all down, from goalkeeping, to crowd sizes, to wingers, to midfielders, to lax security, to great goals.

What’s your favourite: GAM? TAM? JAM?

So the Whitecaps aren't off to the best start.

There's just two goals in three league games.

Oh, and two red cards.

And some real struggles moving the ball through midfield.

Patrick Johnston and Mike Martignago are back to look at the Whitecaps in their week off.

There's a defence of Carl Robinson in here too, just to rile some of the fans up.

Red Card Crises and Midfield Missives

It's week two of the MLS season.

Patrick Johnston and Mike Martignago take stock of the Caps' opening tilts against RBNY and the Philly Union.

A CCL win gives hope. A MLS draw prompts worry.

Can it really be both?

Plus, thoughts on the roster, Brek Shea as a DP and the rollout of a fun new feature.
