Summary
With Taylor Rockwell marooned by a Virginian ice storm (!) Ryan Bailey and Graham Ruthven convene to discuss the events of the weekend!
0.00 - Man City vs. Tottenham: An uncompetitive match raised questions for Jose Mourinho's employment status, while Pep Guardiola's side remain imperious. Graham explains why Joao Cancelo is the key man in City's plan.
21.45 - Leicester vs. Liverpool: Another weekend, another baffling loss for Jurgen Klopp's side. Leicester weren't up to much for most of this match, but came alive in a seven-minute period that has worsened the Reds' downturn.
42.21 - Real Madrid vs. Valencia: Los Blancos appear to be back to their best... but were helped along by a poor Valencia side, who could only throw USMNT hopeful Yunus Musah a cameo role.
54.00 - Napoli vs. Juventus: An injury-ravaged Napoli pulled off an impressive win over the Old Lady, but Andrea Pirlo may have gotten his tactics and personnel selections wrong for this one.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Total Soccer Show. |
| 0:21.5 | My name is Ryan Bailey, and this is The Weekend Review. |
| 0:25.3 | Joining me today to look over some of the biggest games of the weekend is the true personification of a Bruno Fernandez volley in that he's coming at the right time and he's going to be the best part of the performance. |
| 0:35.4 | It's Graham Rundven. |
| 0:36.8 | Hello, Ryanyan that's very |
| 0:37.7 | flattering how are you i'm very good indeed thank you how are you today sir not bad uh had a had a |
| 0:44.1 | good uh valentine's day but i'm speaking speaking to you more on valentine's day than i i did |
| 0:49.3 | uh to my wife uh which is a reflective of my work uh life balance at the moment. But I know the feeling. |
| 0:58.2 | And I hope that doesn't constitute a good Valentine's Day, not talking to your wife very much, |
| 1:01.8 | Graham. She might be listening to this, so no, it is not a good Valentine's Day. |
| 1:07.9 | Absolutely not. Well, the listener, you may notice there's only two of us on this show. Taylor Rockwell can't be with us this weekend. Graham, I'm not sure if I told you this. There's an ice storm in Richmond and Taylor doesn't have power. So that's one of the... Yeah, seriously. That's why he's not with us tonight. It's a very strange situation because I like you, Graham, are from Britain where ice storms aren't a thing. |
| 1:29.6 | It's either raining or it's snowing. So I'm quite confused about this situation I've got in Virginia right now. |
| 1:34.8 | I mean, the amount of nonsense that goes into our group chat, and this hasn't been mentioned, that Taylor is unavailable. |
| 1:40.9 | I mean, he's inside, right? He's not like caught in the ice storm. He's not gone outside, has he? I mean, he's inside, right? He's not, like, caught in the ice storm. He's not gone out outside, has he? I mean, when you say Ice Storm, it sounds like the sort of thing that Gerard Butler should be involved in and then, like, have sort of a $40 million budget to me, but I don't know. Yeah, or some sort of character in an Avengers movie or something. Exactly. Well, we hope the Rockwell family is safe and maybe that's why he's not been the group chat. |
| 2:03.4 | Maybe he's phoned us running out of power. |
| 2:05.4 | We're not quite sure, but I'm sure he's doing just fine there. |
| 2:08.6 | Elsewhere in life, Graham, you and I have been a little busy the past week or so and for the next week because we moonlight as tennis reporters, do we not? |
| 2:17.8 | And it's the Australian Open right now, which very inconveniently is held on the other side of the world. |
| 2:23.7 | So I don't know about you, but it's messing with my time and my sleep patterns right now. |
| 2:29.0 | Yeah, I mean, it would be convenient for us if they played it through their night. |
| 2:33.8 | I feel like it's impolite for them to be playing it at, you know, their peak times. |
| 2:39.9 | What are they thinking of? |
