Summary

It’s been a busy soccer week, so Taylor, Graham, and Joe are back together to update listeners on a host of topics and to answer some questions!

In the first segment, we discuss what’s going wrong for Manchester United under Ralf Rangnick and dive into the latest information coming out of the Lukaku/Chelsea situation. In the second segment, we chat about Lorenzo Insigne’s upcoming move to Toronto FC, new coaching hires for a few MLS teams, and give some USMNT transfer updates. Then in the third and final segment, we answer your questions! You can find the full list of questions that we addressed down below:

1) How will Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo retire? Will they have a farewell tour?

2) Why did LAFC fall off the last two seasons? And has this called into question Bob Bradley's reputation as a head coach?

3) How can we solve time wasting in soccer? Or does it need to be solved in the first place?

Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Total Soccer Show.

0:25.1

My name is Taylor Rockwell, and you are hearing my voice first once again because Ryan remains on vacation.

0:31.2

I do not know where he is, but last I heard he was bowling and doing so poorly.

0:35.4

But without our rhyming host, we soldier on to talk about some of this week's big news

0:39.3

and answer a few more listener questions to do so.

0:41.9

I'm joined by two gentlemen.

0:43.7

Yesterday you had, you both had some of the answers combining to have all of the answers today.

0:48.1

You have all the answers for two specific teams.

0:50.5

Up first, a man who's prepared to fix all of LAAFC's issues in this episode. It's Joe

0:56.1

Lowry. Arizona Joe, you've got solutions. When we're done recording, we're sending them to

0:59.8

Will Ferrell. We're assuming that the team is fixed. Yes, Will Ferrell is the point of contact for any

1:04.7

LASC related, like any soccer operations, any soccer decisions. Those are all going to Will. Also,

1:10.7

Taylor, I love, I really do love how Ryan's bowling just caught an absolute stray in this open. Things are going really well so far, guys. I mean, that's what happens when he posts his bowling score. He must be ridiculed. Wait, what was it? Where do you post it? Not, I think it was either on Twitter or in the group chat. Either way, it was not good. What was it? Shoot, now I want to know.

1:28.0

I didn't see this. All right, well, while I introduce Graham, Joe, you can go find his score. Because we have another individual with us who's going to be fixing Manchester United. It's Glasgow, Graham Ruffman, Graham, a couple quick adjustments, and they're winning the Champions League, I'm assuming. Yeah, absolutely. why not?

1:25.4

That's what you're waiting to hear, right?

1:26.7

I'm glad, yes, that is exactly what other one of them here. I'm here to tell you what you want to hear. So yes, absolutely. I mean, with like a confidence like that, Graham, you are soon to be appointed director of football operations of football or something like that in the next couple weeks, I would assume. Yeah, of some region that isn't what our Manchester United play, I presume.

2:06.2

Perfect. Well, we're going to start with Manchester United. Today, we're going to talk a little

2:10.7

bit about Chelsea. We're going to talk about some MLS news that we've missed. A few updates on Americans

2:14.9

in the transfer market. And we have four list or questions. It's going to be a busy show, and that's before we even talk about Manchester United, which knowing me could end up being 45 minutes. We'll try to make it less than that. But we have not yet talked about their one-no loss to Wolves, which is, I believe, the first loss under Ralph Ryan Nixon, he took over with the one no win over Crystal Palace.

2:36.2

It's been two wins, two draws, one loss,
