Zlatan's playoff take, Josef's goals, RSL's big decision, LAFC juggernaut & more from Wk 23
In this episode, Andrew Wiebe, Bobby Warshaw and Charlie Davies name “Winners” and “Not winners” from MLS Week 23. The Chicago Fire, FC Dallas and D.C. United (without Rooney!) are winners! The LA Galaxy are “not winners” after losing to a team without their two best players … and picking up just 5 wins in 15 games over all. Oh, and Zlatan has thoughts about the playoffs.
Also in this show … Bob Bradley raises coaching standards to a higher level and Bobby is here for it, the Revs appear to be for real, David Gass checks in from Atlanta on the eve of Campeones Cup, The Athletic’s Sam Stejskal shines light on Mike Petke’s termination as head coach of Real Salt Lake and a 1v1 Extratime basketball game is planned.
