| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Total Soccero and our latest batch of listener questions. |
| 0:25.9 | Today we're messing with the Premier League managerial timeline to put Arnyslot at Man United. |
| 0:31.3 | Oh boy. |
| 0:31.9 | We're asking how Nottingham Forest is so good. |
| 0:34.5 | And we're asking if assists are good at all. |
| 0:36.9 | I don't know. |
| 0:37.4 | We've got lots of questions coming up on this episode. Stick with us. My name's Ryan Bailey. Joining me today, it's your friend, it's my friend. It's the Taylor Rockwell. Hello, Taylor. Hello, Ryan. Starting off with an alternate universe's question on the listener questions episode, could be great, and it could lead us into a rambling nonsensical |
| 0:54.5 | episode but that's kind of what listener questions become so it's fine we'll call this episode |
| 0:58.3 | total soccer shows multiverse of madness fair yes and that would be the best one with a title like that |
| 1:05.7 | i think we will see we'll see i gave up on marvel after you, that one where everything ended. Anyway, Joe Lowry's here. Hello, Joe. How are you? I'm good, Ryan. I think that was a wise, strategic decision on your part. I'd like to think that kind of every episode of TSS ends up in some sort of multiverse of madness-style chaos moment. Maybe that's just after the 60-minute mark. I'm not sure. But I think we get there fairly often. Of course for you, Joe, currently it is La Maltiverse do madness. Still in, have we? Yes, today is today's day. I don't know actually how long I've been here, but I'm going home tomorrow. So today is the last day. That I do know. I'll say it like that. |
| 1:44.3 | They don't do days in France, Joe. |
| 1:45.9 | It's fine. They don't do time or calendars or any of that stuff. It makes sense, Graham. It really does. It all adds up. They're frustratingly good at soccer and they should share some of their talent. I'm going to actually just steal a couple of their best players and we'll be good to go. wonderful stuff look forward to your hand luggage being overweight joe very good indeed grand |
| 1:45.7 | motherland all steal a couple of their best players and we'll be good to go. Wonderful stuff. Look forward to your hand luggage being overweight, Joe. Very good indeed. Graham, rather than here, hello, Graham. How are you? I am very well. Have you recovered from the talking of multiverses of madness? From the madness of Benfica Barsa. I know you're watching that game last night. Eric Garcia scored a goal. It was incredible. What scenes? On Champions League |
| 2:19.7 | days, particularly in League phase, colander phasinging, I so rarely pick the game to watch. |
| 2:25.8 | And I'm so pleased that I picked the game to watch on Tuesday. And I've got that one. Wow. What a game. |
| 2:31.0 | So I started with Club Bruges versus Juventus and very quickly switched over from that match. That was the only game that finished 0-0. It was quite the night and we'll be discussing this on Thursday's show but it was an incredible game. We will. Excellent plug for Thursday's show Graham and while we're plugging patreon.com slash total soccer show is where you can support this here endeavor with bonus episodes, bonus video content and access to our |
| 2:51.8 | Discord server where all the cool kids are hanging out. And also, you may know that we are now on |
| 2:57.5 | YouTube. You can see our lovely visages on the YouTube right now. And if you are there, you can even |
| 3:02.8 | see Graham rather than wearing a different kit every day. Today, it's Thailand, which is wonderful. |
| 3:09.1 | Graeme, it looks like you've got a cross-between |
| 3:10.9 | like a high-vis safety jacket and a bowling shirt right now. |
| 3:14.9 | That's the brand I was going for, yeah. |
