Podcasts about New York Red Bulls

Send us Fan MailBall Watching hosts, Jake Koenig and Justin Graham, continue their "Road to '26" interview series with St. Louis soccer royalty and a true pillar of the American game—Mike Sorber. Mike didn't just witness the 1994 soccer revolution; he was the tactical anchor and engine room for it. From his legendary days as a SLU Billiken to becoming the first American to play in Mexico's top flight with Pumas, he has navigated some of the toughest, grittiest environments in soccer history. With the World Cup returning to the U.S. in 2026, he joins us at the perfect moment to bridge his historic playing days with his elite coaching career across the USMNT, New York Red Bulls, and St. Louis CITY SC.We get "on the grass" with the mastermind himself to cover:The 1994 Crucible: We dive into what the internal vibe was like in the locker room when players felt they were playing for the literal survival of the sport in the U.S.. Mike breaks down Bora Milutinović's specific tactical mandate for him as the squad's quiet anchor.The St. Louis DNA & Liga MX Trailblazing: We discuss how growing up in the unique St. Louis soccer ecosystem prepared him for a professional career before MLS even existed. He shares how a Midwestern "chip on the shoulder" helped him navigate Mexico's top flight.The Coaching Blueprint: We look at his transition to the tactical board and how much of the high-intensity Red Bull pressing philosophy he injected into the foundation of St. Louis CITY SC. He reveals the behind-the-scenes non-negotiables required to establish a club's expansion identity.The Road to 2026 & Legacy: We ask whether the return of the tournament feels like a true "mission accomplished" moment for his generation. Plus, he reveals the exact trait the current 2026 USMNT roster needs to "steal" from the 1994 squad to achieve real success.Follow the show on X and/or Instagram (@BallWatchingSTL)!

Hey, soccer fans! The Chicago Fire have lost their offense and returned to mediocrity. They fall 3-1 at home to the New York Red Bulls after dominating possession but being unable to get dangerous looks on goal. The Men in Red have a serious problem in their midfield, and Robin Lod, Maren Haile-Selassie, and Dylan Borso haven't been able to fill the shoes of Brian Gutierrez and Andre Franco. Tune in to hear the breakdown of the big plays and the statistical analysis of another disappointing loss for the Fire. Nick also shares an update from Dave Baldwin on the Chicago Fire's new stadium at The 78. The site has been prepped, excavation work has begun, and crews are pile-driving the supports for the new stadium. Baldwin also shares new partnerships and sponsors of the club and an update on the Dear Chicago Experience in the city. Tune in and join the conversation!

The Fire put together an uninspiring performance against the New York Red Bulls and suffered their third consecutive home defeat across all comps as a result. John and Tim talk about what went wrong against the Baby Bulls before getting a discussion about how much change is warranted with a game against D.C. United coming up midweek. As John looks for glass to break and an alarm to pull, Tim talks about the lack of game changers on the bench... before saying that the Fire should start some of them in the next game.

Hey, soccer fans! The Chicago Fire return to Soldier Field this weekend ready to get back in the win column. Their next opponent is a strugging New York Red Bulls team under new head coach Michael Bradley (Yes, that Michael Bradley). The Red Bulls bring a young, but talented team, with a good mix of veteran leadership. They will pose a threat to the Men in Red's backline, and the Fire should be ready to deal with the likes of Julian Hall, Emil Forsberg, Eric Maxim Chuopo-Moting, and Jorge Ruvalcaba. Nick expects a Fire victory, but the Red Bulls will be confident if they can hang around this match, given the Fire's recent history of giving up leads. Tune in and join the conversation!

Inter Miami were supposed to be unstoppable—but early in the season, they look anything but. Is this just a slow start, or is there something fundamentally wrong with how this team was built around Lionel Messi? We dig into whether David Beckham and the club's leadership miscalculated, why the supporting cast isn't clicking, and what Inter Miami can realistically do to fix things before expectations spiral out of control. Then we take a step back and look across the league. MLS always delivers chaos early in the season, but this year feels especially unpredictable. We break down the biggest surprises and disappointments so far, and spend real time on CF Montréal—a team that doesn't just look bad, but directionless. Is this a rebuild, a collapse, or something worse? Finally, we turn to the United States men's national soccer team and have an honest conversation about fear. Not optimism, not hype—fear. What are the two biggest things that could go wrong heading into the World Cup, and are fans ignoring obvious warning signs? We break down what's real, what's overblown, and what should genuinely worry supporters right now.   Timestamps: (6:30) – Does Messi need a better squad around him?

The MLS season is heating up and we've got takes. MLS analyst Matt Doyle stops by to help us separate early-season overreactions from real trends. Is Julian Hall's breakout with the New York Red Bulls the beginning of a superstar arc or just a hot streak? Are Inter Miami CF papering over long-term roster concerns despite their win over Orlando City SC? And can the early momentum from the San Jose Earthquakes — and Timo Werner — actually last? We dig into what's real, what's noise, and what it means moving forward. Then we head across the Atlantic for an incredible conversation with Steve Fletcher, assistant coach and club legend at AFC Bournemouth. Fletcher gives us insight into why Tyler Adams is one of the most respected players at the club, how his leadership extends far beyond the pitch, and why every team needs a player like him. If you're an American soccer fan, this is one you won't want to miss. We also dive into the impact of manager Andoni Iraola and how his consistency, culture-setting, and tactical identity have helped elevate Bournemouth in the Premier League. Fletcher reflects on his own storied career — from signing in the early '90s to becoming the club's all-time appearance leader — and what it means to represent one club for over three decades. MLS chaos, Premier League insight, and legendary football stories all in one episode.   Timestamps: (7:30) – Julian Hall is leading a youth movement in New York (16:00) - Will Inter Miami struggle this season despite win?

LAFC sent a loud message in their 3-0 dismantling of Inter Miami, and it wasn't just about the scoreline. Los Angeles FC looked sharp, organized, and ruthless, while Inter Miami CF looked frustrated and overwhelmed. We break down what went wrong for Miami, what this result means long-term, and whether Lionel Messi's heated postgame interaction with referees is a sign of deeper cracks. Plus, we recap the rest of MLS opening weekend and highlight the teams that set the tone early. Across the pond, the Premier League title race is heating up once again. Manchester City and Arsenal continue to push each other to the limit at the top of the table. Can City pull off another late surge, or is this finally Arsenal's year? We examine the remaining fixtures, squad depth, and pressure points that could decide the title. Off the pitch, concerns are growing around the 2026 tournament. With New Jersey canceling its World Cup fan zone and Gillette Stadium reportedly resisting FIFA licensing without additional funding, we ask whether the 2026 World Cup is starting to show serious organizational strain. Is this just early logistical turbulence—or a warning sign for what's ahead?
