0:00.0	Welcome to the total soccer show in our latest round of listener questions.
0:25.3	My name is Ryan Bailey and joining me on this Odyssey of Queries is a man who's delighted that Crypto.com has been unveiled as a FIFA World Cup official sponsor, Taylor Rockwell.
0:35.8	Hello.
0:36.7	Hello, I would love to like yes and you on this one,
0:39.4	but no, I'm not thrilled about crypto doing things. Still kind of skeptical about crypto, even if
0:43.9	Larry David tells me that being skeptical about crypto is a bad idea. But I guess it's good.
0:48.4	They got more money. That's what the Premier League definitely needed. The best part of this new
0:52.0	story, Taylor, crypto is banned in Qatar.
0:52.5	Oof, that's interesting. For now, I'm sure they'll find a way to make it like Qatar coin and then it will be fine. Yeah, I think they will.

1:52.0	Twitter that Eric Tenhag speaks much better English than he does, prompting me to bite my
1:56.4	tongue about his nationality grandmother than hello.
1:59.2	Hello, Ryan.
2:00.0	I mean, it's just straight facts that Eric Tenhag almost certainly speaks better English than I do.
2:05.1	I was kind of joking on Twitter about every Dutchman I've ever met speaking perfect English,
2:10.7	but I also wasn't.
2:12.4	It feels like everyone in Holland has perfect English.
2:14.9	So all this chat around Ten Hag having to take English lessons
