It's Called Soccer!

Wirtz to Liverpool, Pulisic vs Pochettino & Coaching Cristiano Ronaldo | It’s Called Soccer EP 37


Listen Later

This week on the Summer Series, Taylor Twellman and Dax McCarty are joined by special guest Chris Armas — diving into the biggest stories across MLS, the USMNT, and the global game.

Dax and Taylor kick things off with some classic Father’s Day advice — before breaking down Conor Tracey’s wild journey from unpaid leave to the professional pitch. Taylor compares it to his own generation, even name-checking Jamie Vardy, while Dax shares a story about a former teammate balancing soccer and another job.
Then: praise all around for MLS sides impressing this season — and why Taylor believes the expanded Club World Cup should inspire MLS owners to take the next step. The guys debate Portland’s ceiling under Phil Neville, and whether they could actually win the West.
Chris Armas joins the show with insight from all angles — including his take on Pochettino needing time, the media storm around Pulisic, and how it compares to managing Cristiano Ronaldo. He also opens up about the USMNT’s No. 1 goalkeeper battle, his Hall of Fame induction, and what’s keeping him up at night in Colorado.
