Podcasts about Kekuta Manneh

Welcome back to another episode of the Third Sub Podcast! In this episode, Alex and Sam are back, as usual, this time to chat all things Vancouver Whitecaps after a big weekend for the team.  To begin, they start with the biggest highlight from the weekend - a 5-0 win over rivals CF Montréal, one where they were able to take advantage of an early Montréal red card to put up their first win of the season.  Led by a pair of former WFC II standouts, Simon Becher and Ali Ahmed, it was a much-needed confidence booster for Vancouver, who had been playing well in MLS play, but just didn't have the results to show for it.  After, they look at what's next for the 'Caps, as they get set to host LAFC in the first leg of the CONCACAF Champions League quarter-finals. A familiar foe, they look at what to expect from this LA side, who are arguably the favourites among the last eight in this competition, and for good reason.  At the same time, they're not invincible, so Alex and Sam look at how Vancouver could beat them, and what they'll need to do in order to make that happen.  Lastly, they finish off with a bit of CPL news, as they react to the signing of Kekuta Manneh by Pacific FC, a move that certainly caught many Canadian soccer fans by surprise when it dropped on Monday morning.  Make sure to check out The Third Sub Podcast on Twitter, @thirdsubpod, as well as on Instagram, @thethirdsub.

It's a long weekend, so we have an extra long episode of the AFTN Soccer Show for you as we took over the airwaves at CiTR radio for two and a half hours on Sunday night. Vancouver Whitecaps showed a never say die spirit in Dallas on Saturday afternoon (or should that be Dai with a Welshman in charge?), fighting back from 2-0 down to score a couple of very late goals to earn the unlikeliest of points. We look back over the dramatic afternoon and chat about the main talking points coming out of it. Plus we hear from both head coaches, Dallas' Oscar Pareja and Vancouver's Carl Robinson. We've got two feature interviews for you this episode. First up is Whitecaps' Canadian defender Marcel de Jong, as he joins us to chat about the stability of signing a new contract extension. Then former Whitecap Kekuta Manneh joins us to chat about his move to Mexico, Columbus Crew falling short in their quest for last year's MLS Cup, and what it means to his hometown of Austin to possibly be getting a new MLS team. We also take a look at the latest news surrounding the Canadian Premier League, in what's been a big week for them. Plus how the weekend played out for the MLS western teams, Whitecaps midfielder Jordon Mutch talks television, and The Others make their debut in our Wavelength section. Here's the full episode rundown of the main segments from the show:02.49: Dallas v Vancouver match analysis17.33: Oscar Pareja and Carl Robinson audio26.15: Whitecaps chat - player analysis, talking points surrounding the team, news of the week48.17: Marcel De Jong interview and discussion56.38: Canadian Premier League news of the week - Cavalry FC, Victoria rumours, what's happening in Port City, league details revealed84.44: Wavelength - The Others - Stan Bowles89.37: MLS West Week in Review 103.10: Kekuta Manneh interview and discussion113.58: TSS Rovers and Canadian development chat120.10: TV OD - Jordon Mutch125.37: BC Soccerweb headlines

After a weekend of high drama, Vancouver Whitecaps showed that they're still the daddy of the MLS Western Conference. As the 'Caps grabbed a dramatic stoppage time equaliser to salvage a point against Columbus Crew, Tony Tchani and Kekuta Manneh stole all the headlines. We look back at all the main talking points and highs and lows of the match and hear from both head coaches, Vancouver's Carl Robinson and Columbus' Gregg Berhalter We also look at whether the Crew are dark horses for the MLS Cup and chat with Kekuta Manneh after scoring in his emotional return to Vancouver. Our feature interview this week is with 'Caps coach Carl Robinson. We sit down with Robbo for an in-depth chat to explore his psyche, what makes him tick, how he builds and plays his teams, and the rest of the season ahead, plus is it actually better to have had Yordy Reyna injured and now flying when it matters? Plus we talk football with the legend that is actor Ray Winstone as we chat about Saturday's charity match at BC Place, West Ham, the Whitecaps, MLS, and more. All this and we preview next weekend's Colorado Rapids game, find out if Stefan Marinovic fancies a chocolate digestive, and The Cockney Rejects make their first appearance in our Wavelength section.

Top of the Western Conference bay bay. That's where Vancouver Whitecaps find themselves this morning and long may it stay that way! Wednesday night's 3-0 win over Minnesota United sent the 'Caps to the summit. We look back at the match and hear from both head coaches, Carl Robinson and Adrian Heath. It's a week of homecomings in Vancouver as two former players take the pitch against the 'Caps. Wednesday saw one of the MLS originals back in town, New Zealand defender Michael Boxall, while Kekuta Manneh faces off against his first pro team on Saturday. We chat in-depth with both about their times in Vancouver, moving on to pastures new, and how their current seasons are going. And there's still time to hear from another Kiwi, current 'Caps 'keeper Stefan Marinovic and take a look ahead to Saturday's visit by Columbus Crew. Here's the full episode rundown:01.40: Vancouver v Minnesota review and analysis10.03 : Carl Robinson and Adrian Heath postgame audio16.30 : Michael Boxall interview28.03 : Kiwis in MLS chat and Stefan Marinovic interview32.23 : Kekuta Manneh interview49.39 : Vancouver v Columbus preview The AFTN Soccer Show is brought to you in partnership with BCsoccerweb.com, your one stop site for all your BC, Canadian, and North American soccer news and links.

Columbus Crew SC play-by-play announcer Neil Sika and color analyst Dwight Burgess host Inside Crew SC following the loss to Atlanta United FC on July 1. Columbus Crew SC forward Kekuta Manneh joins the guys in studio. The two then preview the Black & Gold's upcoming away match against Minnesota United on Tuesday, July 4.

Are you watching the games or just looking at the stats? David's catchphrase is taking off! The guys are definitely talking about (and watching) the games, starting with Friday night lights in Toronto where the best player in the league – Alberth Elis, duh ;) – is hoping to put on a show against the upstart Dynamo. Yes, that'd be Sebastian Giovinco, who Atlanta United captain Michael Parkhurst gives the nod as MLS's best. Who else does Parkhurst hating matching up against? What's life like with an expansion team firing on all cylinders on and off the field? Just how cushy is that new training complex? You won't want to miss this all-encompassing interview from ATL. There are plenty more juicy MLS storylines to talk about, too. The guys start with Dax McCarty's return to Red Bull Arena, celebrate Mauro Diaz's cameo on the training field and Portland's proposed stadium expansion, wonder what's up in Columbus as Gregg Berhalter and Kekuta Manneh go back and forth in the media and finally call the LA Times Kevin Baxter to diagnose what ails the Galaxy. As always, the Hot-Take Hotline is chock full of gems, starting with a jingle from none other than Alexi Lalas. There are more jingles where that came from, a Joe Bendik-to-USMNT flame job, LA Galaxy gritching and some insight into Dax's return from Bill Carroll in Section 132. Want to be a part of the show? Call the Hot-Take Hotline at 401-206-0MLS to leave a voicemail (keep it short and sweet and avoid colorful language) that could appear on ExtraTime Radio!

Another week, another Cascadian derby, another Fredy Montero goal. Only trouble was this week it ended in a 2-1 defeat. We dissect Vancouver Whitecaps' loss against the Portland Timbers. Was it the cliched game of two halves that it felt? Where did it all go wrong, who stood out, who was targeted, and should the 'Caps have taken something from it? We get the thoughts from 'Caps coach Carl Robinson and striker Fredy Montero after the match, about the game and where they go from here with three more tough away games coming up fast. We also chat with Christian Bolanos, who had a poor first half display but was likely the best player on the pitch for the Whitecaps in the second half. It's an honest take after the game, and there may be a little frustration starting to show. See what you think. With the MLS Transfer Window closing soon, are the 'Caps still likely to add some new faces? We hear from Robbo and ponder where they need to be and will they come? There's also chat about tactics, fitness levels, Kekuta Manneh, a look ahead to next week's Canadian derby at Montreal, and more. Have a listen!

Forget Race to Seis, the Galaxy are just racing to keep the 2017 season alive after a slow start that has them at the bottom of the Western Conference. With Andrew back from gallivanting around Mexico, the guys dive into the weekend action, starting with a Sounders blowout at StubHub Center that has LA fans worried and Seattle thinking big. Orlando City have The Wall dreaming big as well after Cyle Larin led the Lions to yet another victory, their first on the road and league-leading fifth of the season, against Jason Kreis' former employers. Plus, the Union's misery continues after blowing a three-goal lead, Toronto FC spoils Bastian Schweinsteiger's party, Portland rule Cascadia thanks to Darlington Nagbe's swag, Kekuta Manneh cryptic tweet raises eyebrows and Atlanta United hand Mike Petke and Real Salt Lake a loss that has Nick Rimando under the microscope. In the second segment, the guys get jacked about the variety and quality of this season's Golden Boot contenders, then get Kevin Kinkead (Philly Voice) on the line to diagnose the ailing Union, who haven't won in eight months. That's not all, either, as supporters call in from the stands to make the Hot-Take Hotline even more special (or ridiculous). Want to be a part of the show? Call the Hot-Take Hotline at 401-206-0MLS to leave a voicemail (keep it short and sweet and avoid colorful language) that could appear on ExtraTime Radio!

Host Ives Galarcep previews MLS Week 8, catches up on the latest soccer news, and interviews special guest Kekuta Manneh about his recent trade to Columbus and USMNT aspirations.

Michael Arace, Tom Reed, and Andrew Erickson discuss the season this far, the new acquisition of Kekuta Manneh, and the upcoming games this year.

Has the doom and gloom been lifted in Whitecapsland? Well, just as one swallow doesn't make a summer, one victory doesn't mean Vancouver Whitecaps have turned their season around. But it's a promising sign. We look back on the 'Caps 4-2 win over LA Galaxy. The highs, the lows, and all the main talking points, blown calls, and questions the match posed. Have the 'Caps finally found their clinical finisher in Fredy Montero? Did the Kekuta Manneh trade finally give the rest of the squad the wake up call they needed? What does the addition of Tony Tchani mean to this team? And who was that in Mati Laba's shirt and what have you done with the real Mati? We'll hear from the LA losers too, from grumpy head coach Curt Onalfo, Jermaine Jones, and Ashley Cole, as LA were (mostly) brutally honest about their shortcomings. One player who never made it past half time was Erik Hurtado. We chat with the striker about his season so far and what it meant to him personally to lose his best friend in the team in Manneh. Our main player interview this week is with Residency alumni Sam Adekugbe, back in Vancouver rehabbing the injury he picked up while on loan with Brighton and Hove Albion. We chat with Sam about his time with English Championship side so far, his current injury, his frustrations, and what the future may hold in store for him. Will it be in Canada or England? And there's still time for I, Ludicrous to feature again in this week's Wavelength section and to look ahead to the CONCACAF Champions League semi-final at home to Tigres on Wednesday. Have a listen!

Apologies to your mothers! Ryan Bailey is out of town so it's Daryl Grove with today's soccer news. Also, please sign up for the Goalmouth email, here: http://fifa.wtf/2cS0Z5V

Hey now, here’s some news: a Trade! Mike Martignago joins Patrick Johnston to look at the exit of Kekuta Manneh. Tony Tchani is the return. What’s the deal? This is the Whitecaps Weekly on Province Sports Radio.

The MLS news machine never stops! After listening to the first-ever Hot-Take Hotline submission, the guys dive into Mike Petke's appointment as the fourth head coach in Real Salt Lake history, discuss the long-term implications of Oscar Pareja's contract extension in Dallas and then ponder how exactly the Chicago Fire might qualify for the World Cup. Confused? So was Bastian Schweinsteiger. There's plenty of weekend action to break down as well. You won't want to miss a marquee matchup between Seattle and Atlanta on a rare Friday night MLS doubleheader. After the break, those pesky transfer rumors around Cyle Larin just won't go away. Doyle gives his take on the young striker's future, then veteran defender Jonathan Spector calls in to give Larin his vote of confidence, explain why moving to MLS now made sense and what it's like to make the move to Manchester United at 17 years of age. Spector is also high on Christian Pulisic (duh) and says he'd love to get his national career going again under Bruce Arena. Speaking of, the US got a 1-1 draw on Tuesday in Panama City, and David takes Andrew to task for expecting more. Doyle also got taken to task ... on Twitter ... by Jermaine Jones ... and shares the full story and the opinion that annoyed the LA Galaxy man. In the mailbag, there's breaking news as the Whitecaps trade Kekuta Manneh to Columbus for Tony Tchani and an allocation money grab bag. What's going on with Vancouver? How does affect the Crew SC XI ... and could there be another trade in the works? Once that's out of the way, the guys listen to the inaugural crop of Hot-Take Hotline voicemails. You won't want to miss history being made! Want to be a part of the show? Call the Hot-Take Hotline at 401-206-0MLS to leave a voicemail (keep it short and sweet and avoid colorful language) that could appear on ExtraTime Radio!

Four days, two matches, two different competitions, two defeats. That's been Vancouver Whitecaps' week, but the performances and circumstances of the games against San Jose Earthquakes and Tigres in the 'Volcano' were very different natural disasters. The 'Caps battled hard against a much better Tigres side in Mexico on Tuesday night, coming away with just a two goal deficit and are still very much in their CONCACAF Champions League semi-final. We look back at the game, the performances, and the strange feeling of coming away from a game that we expected the team to do much worse in but being disappointed with how things ultimately played out. 'Caps coach Carl Robinson gave us a call just before he headed home from Mexico to chat about the game and what may lie in store in the second leg (00:16:23 mark). There were some good defensive displays in Mexico, especially from Kendall Waston and David Ousted. But where was that in San Jose? Can they produce that every week in MLS? San Jose was a mess. We look at the great start, the turning point of Ousted's sending off, and the subsequent defensive collapse, posing the question what future does Kekuta Manneh have with this team if he can't add a better defensive side to his game and what could the 'Caps get for him if they decided to put him up for a trade? Our player interview this week is with one of the Whitecaps most recent additions, Brek Shea (00:49:48). We sit down with Brek to talk about his career, moving to Vancouver, and life off the pitch. We found it an interesting chat and we're sure you will too. And there's still time to bring you Tim Parker's footballing bucket list (01:16:17). Have a listen.

The 2017 season is already in full swing for Vancouver Whitecaps. While most teams played their first competitive match in this weekend’s MLS openers, the ‘Caps now have three under their belt, with two in the space of four days thanks to their CONCACAF Champions League heroics. We look back at what we learned and what we can realistically take from the 2-0 win over New York Red Bulls in the CCL and the 0-0 draw with Philadelphia Union in MLS. Has the defence finally shored up? Is the two man defensive shield killing attacking play? What’s the best position for Kekuta Manneh and Erik Hurtado? And what are we likely to see from the team in the weeks to come? We talk about all this and more in our first postgame show of the season. We also chat with the newest member of the Whitecaps, but a well known returning face, Mauro Rosales. What tempted the veteran Argentine back to Vancouver? Is coaching in his long term plans? What’s his thoughts on the team this season and especially Alphonso Davies? Plus B.A. Robertson features in this week’s ‘Wavelength’ feature. This is a podcast of our first live show on CiTR radio (and our fifth on the station altogether). As such it’s a little chaotic at times as we worked out which buttons to push!! We also ran out of time to put more in, but it’ll get a lot smoother, so have a listen, enjoy, and ‘Mon the ‘Caps. You can download and/or listen to this, and all previous, episodes of the podcast on the following services:

Croeso i Gymru. Or Welcome to Wales if you want that in English. The AFTN travelling roadshow has hit Newport and the Vale of Glamorgan as we follow Vancouver Whitecaps preseason preparations in Wales. With the first game of the trip in the history books, an unfortunate 1-0 loss to Cardiff City U23s, we bring you the first of our (mini) podcasts of the preseason. We chat with 'Caps coach Carl Robinson about the match and some of the talking points from the preseason so far, and we catch up with two players that returned to the pitch after long term injuries, winger Kekuta Manneh and defender Christian Dean. There's a welcome in the hillside for you, so have a listen.

What a week that was to be a Vancouver Whitecaps player or supporter. Well, technically it was eight days, but who's counting. Three MLS matches played. Three victories. A nine point haul that shot them up the standings. All fantastic stuff, but it would have been nice if they didn't make it so nerve wracking for those watching! A come from behind victory against Portland was followed by a last ditch win against Chicago and finished off with a rollercoaster of emotions of a match away to Toronto. We look back at the last two matches and ahead to this weekend's latest Cascadia Cup encounter with the Timbers. What stood out, both good and bad, in the wins? hat transformation has taken place with Erik Hurtado? How good was Kekuta Manneh and where's that consistency week in, week out? We also look at Masato Kudo's horror injury and hear from Chicago Fire player Razvan Cocis about what it was like on the pitch when it happened and his own important reaction. All this and a lot more, including some WFC2 chat 'Caps head coach Carl Robinson talks about the form of striker Kyle Greig and the opportunity the upcoming Canadian Championship and Champions League matches will afford these players. There's a lot of chat to be had, so have a listen!

Another Vancouver Whitecaps MLS match, another week we end up speaking non stop about MLS referees and their DisCo overlords. It's all getting a bit old now. The ten man 'Caps battled for a point against LA on Saturday. We look back at the big talking points from the game - Matias Laba's red card, Pedro Morales' injury, the play of Kekuta Manneh, and the continued lack of goals - and take a look ahead to this weekend's cross-country crash with DC United. Onto brighter news, and WFC2's first home match of the season gets underway on Sunday. We look over the young 'Caps strong start to the season and hear from two of the team's big players, striker Daniel Haber and defender Kadin Chung. Both Canadians and both hoping to make the jump to the Whitecaps' MLS squad with standout performances at USL level. There's a lot of chat to be had, so have a listen!

Soccer Talk with Tyler Green and Simon Fudge is back for the April 7th edition - presented by Metrotown Orthopedic & Sports Physiotherapy, as they broadcast from the Barber and Co. studios. On this episode, Tyler and Simon discuss the Whitecaps goalless draw with LA Galaxy last weekend. After seeing Matias Laba sent off in the first half of the 0-0 draw at BC Place, have MLS referees been left unsure how to interpret challenges in games under this season’s new disciplinary directive? Whitecaps captain Pedro Morales and winger Kekuta Manneh are the latest injury concerns for Whitecaps FC. We speak to Metrotown Physio’s Marc Rizzardo about the pair, as well as some other injury-related topics. Simon Fudge also goes 1v1 with Whitecaps midfielder Marco Bustos.  Tyler and Simon also look ahead to Sunday’s home opener in USL for the undefeated Whitecaps FC 2, debate if anyone outside of Edmonton or Ottawa cares all that much for the NASL, and wonder if Canadian women’s national team goalkeeper Erin McLeod’s written confirmation that she tore the ACL in her knee read more like a retirement announcement.

Ho Ho Ho everyone! It wouldn't be Christmas without AFTN's Christmas Special podcast and aptly, we have a veritable cracker in store for you this year. There's a lot of magical things about Christmas, but let's be honest, the best part is the presents! And if they're football related pressies, then all the better! I'm sure we've all had a few over the years. Vancouver Whitecaps players and managers certainly have and there's some they'd still like to get this year as Carl Robinson, Alan Koch, Kendall Waston, Tim Parker, Pa Modou Kah, Kekuta Manneh, Pedro Morales, Mauro Rosales and Octavio Rivero share with us. Also in the show, Kekuta tells us about the first pair of proper football boots he ever received, Robbo talks Boxing Day games back in blighty, and Mauro and WFC2 player Victor Blasco tell us what Christmas is like in Argentina and Spain. And no special podcast would be complete without hearing what Pedro and Mauro's favourite jam is! Have a listen!

The hours are slowly, very slowly, ticking down until Sunday's Western Conference semi-final second leg between Vancouver Whitecaps and Portland Timbers. So let AFTN help you kill some time while you're waiting for kick off with all the pregame build up you need for the clash between the Cascadian rivals. We hear from both coaches, Vancouver's Carl Robinson and Portland's Caleb Porter, ahead of the game. What did they learn from last week's first leg? Who's fit and ready to go? And can there be any surprises between two teams that know each other so well? Robbo also chats to us about the excitement of knockout Cup ties throughout his career and shares his thoughts on two legged semi-final series. One of the men who looks fit, ready and raring to go is Whitecaps captain Pedro Morales and he updates us on how he's feeling with less than two days to go. But one player who is definitely ruled out of Sunday's game is Vancouver centre back Pa Modou Kah. We sit down with the Gambian for a lengthy chat about his first season with the 'Caps and his current injury status. Kah talks about making the move and settling into Vancouver, his fellow centre backs Kendall Waston and Tim Parker, what he brings to the locker rooms, his recent gift of rings to all staff, his future plans and more. We also hear from Robbo on his veteran defender and what he feels he brings to the Whitecaps, whether he's playing or not. And there's still time to hear from Morales and Kekuta Manneh about their favourite jam. Have a listen!

The weekend started off so brightly for us here at AFTN Towers. Both East Fife and Wimbledon got big victories in their respective leagues, but then the Whitecaps took to the pitch. It was a double losing weekend for the 'Caps, with Seattle claiming this year's Cascadia Cup with a 3-0 victory on Saturday and then Austin Aztex coming back from two goals down to beat WFC2 3-2 in USL action on Sunday. That's what you call a bad weekend. We've been playing the Art Brut song of the same name on repeat as a result. Michael and Steve are joined by AFTN writer Jay Duke to look back at the Seattle loss. What went wrong? Were there any positives to take from it? And what does it mean, if anything, for the rest of the season. We also look ahead to the next clash between the two sides, Wednesday's winner takes all CONCACAF Champions League group game. The USL season wrapped up on Sunday and we chat with WFC2 head coach Alan Koch about the successes of the team's inaugural season and what lies in store for the team and the players moving forward. And there's still time to catch up with Austin Aztex head coach Paul Dalglish about his return to Texas, the club moving up from PDL to USL and the impact on the Whitecaps of former Aztec, Kekuta Manneh. Have a listen!

Poku-mania finally touches down in the ETR studio as the man himself joins the gang for the first time. Kwadwo discusses his run of form, the man who discovered him in the NPSL ranks (Eric Wynalda) and the advice that he’s getting from the other NYCFC stars. And we go from the player of the moment, to the result that has everyone talking: Right after Andrew calls them the best team in the league, Sporting Kansas City are humbled by the San Jose Earthquakes in midweek. Plus Simon asks how fans would react if the tables were turned in the case of the Brad Evans-Olimpia CCL brouhaha.   In the second segment, we look forward to a busy MLS weekend with plenty of questions. Is the West superior to the East as Portland Timbers owner Merritt Paulson claims? Who would you take: Kekuta Manneh or Fabian Castillo? Can NYCFC hang with the LA Galaxy on Sunday? And then there’s the big Didier Drogba debut happening on Saturday night. MLSsoccer.com's Montreal Impact beat writer Olivier Tremblay sets the scene ahead of the sold-out match at Stade Saputo.   In the mailbag, it’s your time to DJ as David goes through the top responses on MLS club anthems. Plus what do you need in your Appalachian Trail survival pack? Apparently a little bit of ETR and much more fun.

Tyler Green and Simon Fudge talk Whitecaps FC after the 'Caps lost 4-3 against Sporting KC on Saturday night + comments from Kekuta Manneh.  Tyler and Simon also debate the Starting XI. 

A wild and crazy MLS weekend has come to a close and the band is finally back together to make sense of all the action. Young Vancouver star Kekuta Manneh stops by to chat about his national team future, the Whitecaps' success so far, and whether or not he’s the best shot in MLS. But before that, the guys have to delve into Tissue Gate, also known as the Caleb Porter-Oscar Pareja WWE show on Saturday night. Things may get messy Simon brought his box of tissues. While MLS rolls on, the Montreal Impact are down in Costa Rica preparing for one of the biggest games in MLS history. Impact beat writer Olivier Tremblay calls in to give the guys a taste of the environment right now in Alajuela, and the Impact’s chances to move on to the final against a strong, determined Alajuelense side. In the mailbag, a few rule and philosophy debates spring up. If a referee happens to see a replay and can correct a call, should he? Should 0-0 draws end in no points for either side? And where would Mike Petke fit best if he returns this season?

Ladies and gentlemen, a big hand for your MLS leading Vancouver Whitecaps. Five games in and top of the pile. A very happy Easter indeed. Eggscellent you could say. But enough of the yolks, it's episode 104 of "There's Still Time", the AFTN podcast and it's our LA postgame show. We look back over the Whitecaps' masterful performance with the help of special guest Harjeet Johal. Who stood out? Who had more ball touches than Diego Rodriguez? When will Octavio Rivero be heading for the English Premiership? How jealous are TFC fans of the 'Caps start? All that and much more. We also hear the postgame thoughts from both coaches, Vancouver's Carl Robinson and LA's Bruce Arena, and there audio galore from both locker rooms. From the joyous Whitecaps, we hear from clean sheet merchant David Ousted, stellar defender Kendall Waston, goalscorer Kekuta Manneh and El Capitan Pedro Morales. And what would a post LA game podcast be without hearing from the man that is Mr Soundbite himself, Robbie Keane?! The Irish striker doesn't let us down again and we also hear from a very down sounding AJ DeLaGarza and the man who would be Zorro, Gyasi Zardes. And there's still time to look ahead to Wednesday's game against Columbus and how WFC2 have fared in the USL season so far. Have a listen!

Well, last Saturday night we all got a collective kick in the groin as the Vancouver Whitecaps crept into the Citrus Bowl and stole three points out from under our beloved Orlando City.  Michael and Austin break down what was a pretty good outing for the Lions if you discount the fact that they couldn't score a goal. We discuss the Kekuta Manneh incident that led to his suspension and fine this week from Major League Soccer's Disciplinary Committee, look ahead to the Montreal Impact match this Saturday and chat a bit about the addition of Minnesota United FC to MLS in 2018. The 1-0 loss to Vancouver in the 96th stinking minute was pretty terribawful, but there were still some positives to take from it and it's easy to lose sight that this is a young team and one that hasn't been together very long. It'll get better, and hopefully that will start this weekend. Speaking of which... We also welcome Jeff from Mount Royal Soccer to the show to give us the perspective from Quebec on the upcoming match in Montreal. Orlando City isn't the only team decimated by international call-ups and injuries these days. It should be an interesting battle. And we give not only our score predictions but tell you who will get the goal(s?) for the Lions! Here's how things went down: 0:26- Michael and Austin lament the late Octavio Rivero goal and put the Vancouver game into perspective (spoiler: we both thought there was an awful officiating decision!). We preview Montreal and discuss plucky MLS newcomers Minnesota United FC. 25:59- Jeff jumps on to take us to frightening places inside the mind of a Montreal Impact fan. They're liking their team more this season, but how long will that last if MLS wins don't come? 40:05- We present some names you might not expect to put Orlando on the score sheet this weekend.

Marc Weber joins Patrick Johnston to talk about Kekuta Manneh, Octavio Rivero, Sam Adekugbe and Matias Laba, as the Whitecaps prepare for their cross-country trek to take on Kaka's Orlando City SC.

Well First Kick 2015 was the equivalent of Game of Thrones 'Red Wedding' for Vancouver Whitecaps. A real Jekyll and Hyde performance saw two Whitecaps side turn up on the pitch for the proverbial game of two halves. We pick over the carcass that was left for dead at BC Place. What was behind the Vancouver's second half flatness and how much of it can be placed at the door of Toronto for making some excellent half time adjustments? Where did Kekuta Manneh go to at half time? What does Nicolas Mezquida have to do to get on the pitch? And after TFC beat Seattle in their opener last year with two goals from a new DP, does this mean Vancouver are heading for the Supporters' Shield?! We've got the thoughts of both coaches, Vancouver's Carl Robinson and Toronto's Greg Vanney, and we hear from the victorious locker room with audio from Jozy Altidore and Michael Bradley.

Episode 82 of "There's Still Time", the AFTN Soccer podcast, is a post Thanksgiving show and there's a lot to give thanks for in Whitecapsland. Now that they've lifted another Cascadia Cup, it's one goal down, two to go for Vancouver Whitecaps. After a dramatic and critically important win over Seattle Sounders on Friday, the Whitecaps could find themselves just 90 minutes away from both a MLS playoff place and a spot in next year's CONCACAF Champions League when they face San Jose Earthquakes on Saturday night. Or they may have to wait another week and even face playing catch up. We look back at the big talking points from the Sounders game, the players that stood out and those that didn't, and what shape the Whitecaps are looking in, in the battle for the postseason. Moving on to this week's training, we hear the thoughts of head coach Carl Robinson, goalkeeper David Ousted and centreback Andy O'Brien about Seattle, San Jose and the playoff race.Kekuta Manneh talks about his love for scoring against Seattle, the works he needs to do on his game and his international future, whilst new homegrown signing Kianz Froese chats about his MLS debut. And there's still time to look ahead to the San Jose game at the weekend. What Earthquakes team will turn up and will the pressure get to the Whitecaps? Have a listen!

Episode 77 of "There's Still Time", the AFTN Soccer podcast, might not have as much flair and excitement as Vancouver Whitecaps' number 77 Pedro Morales, but it's jam packed with Caps analysis and training ground audio. We look back at the Portland horrorshow and try and figure out just what went wrong. Have the Whitecaps simply been figured out and how do they get out of their current funk? Do they need to change formation and will that see Kekuta Manneh played as an out and out striker? If Pedro Morales doesn't perform, then the Caps don't perform. We wrote about that in an article earlier in the week, and coach Carl Robinson weighs in with his thoughts. We also have more training ground audio and views from Robinson, David Ousted, Andy O'Brien and Darren Mattocks. And there's still time to look ahead to this weekend's game with DC United.

Disinfectant at the ready, the Great Unwashed are coming to town. Portland come a calling to BC Place on Saturday in a crucial Cascadia Cup clash with vital playoff points on the line. A Whitecaps win and they're sitting pretty, A Timbers win and Caps start to lose the momentum in the playoff race. Episode 76 of "There's Still Time" looks at what lessons, if any, we can take from the Whitecaps' 2-0 loss in LA and ponders whether a change of formation would help with the goalscoring woes. Or will that take a new addition and could he be on the way in the shape of Kei Kamara? We also look ahead to this weekend's big game hunt against the Timbers. Can the Caps give Will Johnson and co a right good face slapping? And there's still time for lots of training ground audio from Caps' coach Carl Robinson, goalkeeper David Ousted, defenders Jordan Harvey and Andy O'Brien, and strikers Kekuta Manneh and Darren Mattocks. Have a listen!

Episode 62 of the AFTN Soccer Podcast is a Vancouver Whitecaps v San Jose Earthquakes postgame show, and also a Canadian Championship preview! Going into May there were two monkeys on the Caps' backs. They still didn't have a win against Western Conference opposition and they just can't seem to win that elusive first Voyageurs Cup. Well, after San Jose, that's one monkey well and truly shaken and one to go. We look back at Vancouver's win over San Jose and the super quick start that saw them three up after the first 20 minutes. Who shone? What led to them coming out of the blocks so fast? And what does the immediate future hold in store for this team? We have audio from both locker rooms after the game. We hear from Caps coach Carl Robinson, goalscorer Kekuta Manneh, goalkeeper David Ousted and captain Jay DeMerit for Vancouver and two goal man Chris Wondolowski and former Whitecap Shea Salinas for San Jose. And there's still time to look ahead to Wednesday Canadian Championship semi final against Toronto. It's going to be a young Caps team that takes on TFC and we chat with two of them, goalkeeper Marco Carducci and midfielder Bryce Alderson about the game and more.

Vancouver Whitecaps' fighting spirit was in abundance as they fought back twice to take a point at home to the LA Galaxy. Our LA postgame show looks back at the main talking points of the game. Did the Caps go with the right formation? What about those early substitutions? Should we be buying a book called 'Where's Pedro'? What are the Whitecaps missing going forward? What's going to happen now with the still dropped Nigel Reo-Coker? And of course, we look at the goals. All four of them. We also hear from both locker rooms.Carl Robinson, Darren Mattocks, Kenny Miller and point securing goalscorer Kekuta Manneh bring you some inside from the Vancouver side, whilst Bruce Arena, Omar Gonzalez, Dan Gargan and a not very happy Robbie Keane give us some LA insight into the result. Whilst Rob Friend tells us what it was like to be back playing football again in BC and how close he was to signing for the Whitecaps last summer. And there's still time to bring you the latest Whitecaps Residency news and details of next weekend's BC Provincial Cup quarter finals. Have a listen and Happy Easter everyone!

The sun was shining so it was outside broadcast time once again as we bring you Episode 53 of "There's Still Time" from UBC's Thunderbird Stadium after Vancouver Whitecaps' 4-2 friendly win over FC Edmonton. We look over the game, who stood out, who didn't take their opportunity to impress and ponder just how young the average age of the Whitecaps team was in that second half.Kekuta Manneh was the two goal hero and we speak with him after the game about the season so far, the match itself, the pressure raised by last season's heroics and ask him just how good could this Whitecaps team could be this year. We also catch up with FC Edmonton Head Coach Colin Miller and chat about the Eddies preseason trip west, the players to watch out for this season, the new NASL playoff format, this year's Voyageurs Cup and more. Moving away from the pro level to local soccer, we talk to BC Soccer Executive Director Paul Mullen about the upcoming 2014 BC Provincial Cup, whether BC will follow Ontario and look at a provincewide U23 league and their travelling big red jersey. And there's still time to ask our listeners and twitter followers for a little bit of help in explaining Nigel Reo-Coker's Marcel Marecauesque mime show on Saturday. What could he have been demonstrating to Marco Carducci?! Have a listen!

Episode 23 of "There's Still Time", the AFTN podcast. We really wish it was 41 as we have the numbers 4 and 1 firmly implanted in our head right now. It's a very jubilant podcasting crew this episode in the wake of the demolition handed out by Vancouver Whitecaps to Seattle Sounders in Cascadia Cup action. We look back on the game, dissect the goals and ask where that performance has been for most of the season. It was a team performance but there were also some magnificent individual efforts and we take a look at the play of Kekuta Manneh, Daigo Kobayashi, David Ousted and Jun Marques Davidson. We hear some post game thoughts of Martin Rennie, Kekuta Manneh and Nigel Reo-Coker on the performance, the win and the team's playoff hopes and the three of them also chat with us, along with David Ousted, on whether the upcoming ten day break between matches will benefit or hinder the Caps. And there's still time to look ahead to Colorado and try and break down what could play out in an exciting run in with four teams jostling for two MLS playoff spots.

Episode 15 of "There's Still Time", the AFTN podcast, and it's another one of our post game pods but with a little bit more this time around. Vancouver Whitecaps remained unbeaten at home with a 3-1 win over Chicago Fire. We chat about the game and the impact of Kekuta Manneh, along with audio from the Gambian and Martin Rennie. We also chat about Camilo and discuss those murmurs about him playing for the Canadian national team. And talking of the national team, we have look back at the Gold Cup. Was it worth bringing such a young squad and what did they learn? We also hear from interim head coach Colin Miller, who spoke to us after the Mexico defeat about the leap from the levels these guys have been playing to the international stage and what he thinks of some of the Canadian media criticism. One young guy who hopes to feature in the Canadian set up down the line is Whitecaps' Residency prospect Sam Adekugbe. Sam has been turning a lot of heads this past year and the general feeling is that he will be on the Caps' MLS squad sooner rather than later. We caught up with Sam before he headed down to Houston for the U18s Finals week and spoke with him about his development, his hopes for the future, the USSDA Finals and his Canadian passport situation. All this and there's still time to also chat with Vancouver Whitecaps Residency head coach Gordon Forrest about the tough test that the U18s will face this week at the Academy Finals. This episode was recorded at BC Place right after the Chicago game, so enjoy all the background noise from the air conditioning and slamming doors!
