| 0:00.0 | Hello, |
| 0:02.0 | Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Total Soccer show. |
| 0:25.8 | My name is Taylor Rockwell and with me today to talk about Americans abroad and answer some list of questions. |
| 0:30.7 | It's a twofer. |
| 0:31.6 | It's a fellow who has watched more footage of Eunice Musa than maybe Eunice Musa himself. |
| 0:36.0 | I don't know about Eunice Musa's family, but Eunice Musa himself. I don't know about Yudis Musa's family, |
| 0:39.0 | but Eunice Musa himself probably. |
| 0:40.5 | It's Joe Lauvery. Hello, Joe. Hello, Taylor. I'm wondering if I could get a business card that had, or maybe this is a t-shirt or a foam finger situation that says, you know, I've watched more film on Eunice Musa than anyone in the world. I think we can work with this. It's a very specific shirt, but I do like it. |
| 0:36.4 | And it does feel accurate because I feel like we have watched a lot of him. |
| 0:39.9 | I'm sure Valencia fans have watched a lot of him as well. But I do feel like he is an ever-present fixture on these Americans Abroad Weekend Review shows. It's like that office episode where Michael Scott has everybody do the Fun Run for Rabies, right? And he has a really, really long name to the fun run. And they put it on a T-shirt. I feel like that's my Eunice Mousa T-shirt idea. Because, yeah, we talk about him all the time because he's such an interesting player to watch, yes. But then also to talk about his role for club and for country and where on the field is his best spot. We will add Celebrity Pro-Am to this conversation, as did Michael Scott, for that fun run. |
| 1:32.4 | But for now, let's talk about some of our youngsters. |
| 1:35.5 | We're going to talk Eunice Musa later on. |
| 1:37.3 | Let's start with Tyler Adams, another common name that we talk about on this show. |
| 1:42.8 | Joe, I know you did some Tyler Adams viewing. |
| 1:44.9 | I did as well. |
| 1:45.6 | What did you make of his performance this past weekend? |
| 1:48.1 | His performance against Alsberg was okay. |
| 1:51.8 | It wasn't great, but it was almost quintessential Tyler Adams. |
| 1:56.0 | And I feel like everything I say is going to be a little bit harsh, |
| 1:58.8 | and so I want to start with the positive stuff. |
| 2:00.6 | He still shielded the backline really well, to give context here. He came off the bench for Leipzig |
