Welcome in to the latest edition of ESPNFC, I'm Dan Thomas, joined the studio today by

0:07.8

Annie Moreno and Stevie Nickle. We're also welcome from a ton of hotspots for striker

0:12.2

Jürgen Klimsberg, who is with us. Jürgen spurs a fun to watch for the first time in

0:17.3

ever. Is this going to last? Can Postercogalo and his tactics and the fact that he doesn't

0:22.0

really seem to mind about not defending, is this going to be a successful season?
