Hello, hello everybody and welcome for the Total Soccer Show.

My name is Taylor Rockwell, and it's Tuesday, which means it's time to do some MLS updating.

Here with me to do just that is a man who knows that one more signing in Inter-Miami will finally be able to win every single game 6-0 this season.

It's Joe Lowry.

Joe, they're doing some work that Inter-Miamy team. That they are. Yeah, and there's not just going to be one more signing either, and I'll leave that there. All right. He'll leave that there, a tease, if you will, rounding out the crew. Jeff Ruter, Jeffino himself, a man who knows that Luca De Votore and Chucky

Lazzano do not a San Diego make anymore. Not anymore, no, and they were the identity.

It's fun with those expansion teams when, like, their first two signings that are collectively

heard of are assumed to be the faces and the centerpieces of it. And then it's like,

here comes Anders Dreyer. And what do we know about these two lads from Kanka Kaff anymore? Nothing, nothing at all. It's very Kenwin-Jones for Atlanta United. Wow, good poll. That was a good poll. What a poll. Great poll. Josh Gatt at Minnesota. Yeah, these are the stars, the stars of yesterday. You guys make me so happy right now. I remember Josh Gat at Minnesota. Yeah, these are the stars, the stars of yesterday.

You guys are making me so happy right now?

I remember Josh Gat being this, like, mythical figure that we weren't sure if he actually existed or played.

Same with againy, Eugene Starikoff.

Yeah.

Yes.

That last one you made up for sure, though, right?

I did not make up Chuck Lee Lozano leaving San Diego, though that does feel still wrong, but by all accounts, also seems right for them, given that it feels like he never fully, I meshed himself with the team, didn't seem like it was the best fit in terms of personalities and chemistry, but also was a pretty

important player for them in their attack at points in the season. I saw some supporters

indicating that maybe, or arguing that maybe part of the reason why they don't go further in the

playoffs is because he's not involved to kind of provide that spark. Jeff, do you buy into that

at all, or do you feel like this was just a good decision from San Diego from top to bottom?

I think it can be a bit of both. I think that when Chuky Lozano signed, the idea was going to be that he could be a Carlos Vela-like presence for San Diego from the jump and do similar things.

Maybe not in terms necessarily of the leadership component,
