| 0:58.4 | The next time. Hello, hello, Hello, everybody, and welcome to the total soccer show. My name is Taylor Rockwell, and on today's episode, what's that looming in the distance? It's the closing of the primary transfer window |
| 1:03.8 | in major league soccer, which as we all know closes on April 23rd. Who doesn't have that written |
| 1:08.7 | on their calendar? Answer, most people. So by the time |
| 1:12.0 | some of you hear this, it's going to be too late. No more game-changing attackers or |
| 1:16.1 | questionably reliable defenders for you. We're here to break down the window so far and look |
| 1:21.0 | at some teams that could still make moves in the final hours. Joe Lowry, how do you approach |
| 1:25.2 | the closing of the window genuinely? Are you trying to cover every rumor and every possible move? Or are you waiting to see what happens when the dust settles? A little bit of both, and I guess by cover every rumor and possible move, it's just read the great reporting work of others that are actually doing that. I try to stay on top of what is happening up until the close of the window. It seems like RSL are cooking over in the corner a little bit. And then I also try to look back at the window because this window has been open for months now. And there's a lot of moves that I have sort of forgotten about amidst the chaos of the first quarter of the MLS season. So over the last few days, and I'll have something on this over for Backhield as well. It is trying to remember what all has gone on and what has worked and now what has not worked. Jeff Ruter, same question for you. Are you getting calls from GMs or scouts trying to gauge your opinion? Is that a thing that happens? Not this time of year. Occasionally it does happen, but... Really? Not right. Yeah. Yeah yeah it's fun um but Olivia |
| 2:18.1 | Giroux thoughts slow is that a call you got hit what you want to do Steve but go nuts |
| 2:23.5 | yeah no uh I think for this one I Joe's right like it's just this is the primary |
| 2:29.1 | transfer window in MLS is just so like laughably long that moves that happened in 2024 are still ostensibly |
| 2:36.2 | in this window, right? |
| 2:37.6 | So it's just a lot to keep up with right now. |
| 2:41.3 | It sure is. |
| 2:42.5 | It's notable that when, yeah, when you try to find all the moves that have happened on |
| 2:46.7 | the like the transfer mark page, you have to look at winter transfers only which feels odd |
| 2:51.5 | that trips me up yep that trips me up every so often where i think wait did that move happen |
