Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Total Soccer Show.

I am your host, Taylor Rockwell.

No Daryl Grove today, we're going to be talking SETI-A, as with all Englishmen, Daryl only likes Sariya when Paul Gascoen plays there. That is not true, really, but it is the case that David Amoyal, who will be talking to me, knows all of the things there are to know about said a so instead I'm chatting with him instead of Darrell. No to Daryl, who does join me later on for a little bit of a Sariah quiz. But David and I start off by talking about some of like the lesser known but still very exciting Sariah teams. We move on to some of the better known like the title contenders looking specifically at Uvei, Inter Milan and Napoli, and then some of the sort of

like second tier clubs in there, you're Roma's, your Fiorentinas, you're A.C. Milan's, uh, if you want to put them there too. Uh, so it's a, it's a nice long conversation. It's always really nice to have David on the show because he knows so much, but it's like so specific in that knowledge. I very much appreciate it. Hopefully you will as well. I'm assuming you will.

I'm also going to add that our plan is to have David like so specific in that knowledge, I very much appreciate it. Hopefully you will as well.

I'm assuming you will.

I'm also going to add that our plan is to have David on semi-regularly to kind of keep us up to date with everything that's going on in Syria because it's not necessarily a league that Daryl and I do a very good job of paying attention to, but we probably should because as you'll find out from this show, there are many, many teams doing a lot of exciting things, many exciting players, and some innovative coaches coming into their own this season. So with all that said, I will turn it over to me, talking to David. With me now, I've got David Amoyal, hopefully I've got that pronunciation right again, of the Calcio-Land pod. He's the editor for DiMartio English. He's a columnist for The Athletic and ESPN, many more. David, thank you for joining the show once again. Real pleasure to be on. I had a great time last time, so thanks again for having me. Of course, yeah, all the pressure, I guess. It went well last time. Let's see if we can keep it going this time. We have lots to get to. I sort of want to hold off for a moment talking about, like,

the presumed big three, and sort of ask you, we get this question a lot from people,

like, what are some teams that maybe I don't know about or maybe aren't as quite as, like,

well-known when it comes to Seraia.

I would include teams like maybe Latsio Fiorentina in that conversation.

But who are some teams that you, David, think if people are just getting into Sera, they might enjoy watching for any number of reasons?

So I think the easy answer is Atalanta.

And it's a good answer because they'll be in the Champions League, which was pretty

surprising that they qualified. Although they play a back three with two wingbacks, they actually

play a really exciting brand of football. Their manager, Gasperini, is one of the most

tactically astute managers in SETIA. They did very well this summer

transfer window. They only lost one starter, centerback Mancini, who they've replaced rather well.

You know, combination of players on the squad, they brought in Skirtle, who some might know

know from his time at Liverpool,

and they have a very exciting front line. Last season, we had Duvanzapata and Joseph Ilichich

have career season. And this year they brought in Luis Muriel, who's another very talented
