Welcome to the Total Soccer Show and the long-awaited return of one of our favourite show formats.

It's take it or leave it.

The episode will you send us your hot takes and we either take them or leave them.

It's that simple.

On this episode, we're entertaining the idea that Nottingham Forest owner is a good thing for soccer,

but buying Munich will have a perfect season, that Leo Messi's MLS career has been negative for him,

and much, much more. Let's go. My name's Ryan Bailey, joining me today. It's the Taylor Rockwell. Hello,

Taylor. Hello, the Ryan Bailey. It's lovely to be here. I love it to you all the episode. I loved these in particular. So credit to everybody who submitted them because I had a lot of fun with these. When I was like tired and answering them late at night, they gave me energy, they gave me life. They gave me frustration with Lionel Messi. That almost sounded like a Bible verse there. When I was tired at night, they gave me life. Yeah.

That's also my song lyric. I'm working to the ballad of Ryan Bailey. Oh, wow. Working progress. Look forward to. Yeah. Unfortunately, Ronsone.com. I wanted to be sung by Georgi Okilini, so I feel like it's not going to be celebrated in the end. You know AI Slop can make that happen at some point, right? That's going to be a thing. Yeah. Yay.

Hi, Joe Lowry. Hey, I, uh, I've desperately want to Slop can make that happen at some point, right? That's going to be a thing. Yeah.

Yeah.

Hi, Joe Larry. Hey, I desperately want to say something, but it's not going to come out until later in the week. So I'm not going to, and instead I'm just going to pretend that none of that ever happened. Hey, Ryan, how are you? I definitely was going to quote something that Graham quotes in the future. That was never going to happen. Excellent. Because we do record these episodes in chronological order on the day they're released.

Of course, Joe.

Yes.

Like... in the future. That was never going to happen. Excellent. Because we do record these episodes in chronological order on the day they're released. Of course, Joe. Yes. Like professionals who adhere to a very consistent, rigid and effective schedule. Yeah, it's like how the first scene that they filmed of the Harry Potter films was the scene at the end that they, with Haggard's saying goodbye, did anyone know that? Spoiler.

Some of us haven't seen Harry Potter.

Hello, Graham, Ruffin.

Hello, Ryan Bailey. How are you? What are you going to do this weekend? Are you going to watch all the Harry Potter films? That's what you're going to do. Okay, cool. I'm going to do that. No. Thanks. Glad to ask the question. Graham, I think you said you swore off Harry Potter in solidarity with J.K. Rowling, no?

Oh, man. That's a grenade's thrown at me.

There we go. And I'm catching it and throwing it straight back to you. There we go. Also joining us, Notorious Turf, Graham, Rutherland. Patreon.com slash Total Soccer Show is where you'll get out bonus content. There we go. it's sticking buddy it is sticking
