đź“– Full Episode Description
It’s a great week to be a soccer fan — unless you’re Chelsea. The boys are all back to break down a massive weekend across MLS, Premier League, and Champions League.
We kick off with St. Louis CITY’s massive away win at San Jose, featuring a breakout performance from Brendan McScorely (aka Brendan McScorely 2.0, aka our new savior). Then it’s straight into the chaos of Brighton vs. Spurs, Arsenal vs. City, and the fiery Manchester United vs. Chelsea clash that had red cards, goalkeeper howlers, and Dobes feeling himself a little too much.
This episode is packed with banter, arguments, XG debates, and plenty of laughs — the perfect listen whether you’re celebrating three points or spiraling about your club’s form.
