Listen in as they express their collective frustration with the current state of international soccer, critiquing the negative, risk-averse styles of top teams like England, France, and Portugal and the contentious issue of deciding matches with penalty kicks. The hosts advocate for more progressive coaching, drawing inspiration from Jurgen Klopp's mentality, and touch on the challenges faced by the US men's national soccer team under coach Greg Berhalter.

The conversation turns global as they dive into the Copa America and Euro clashes, highlighting the most thrilling moments and upcoming games. The transfer rumor mill heats up with potential player movements at Chelsea involving Cucurella, Lukaku, and Osimhen, examining the complexities of wage structures and negotiations.
