Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros return to process the full-force return of Major League Soccer following the World Cup break. Christian kicks off the show with a hilarious and relatable personal story about taking his 3.5-year-old son to his first competitive soccer class 1v1s. The hosts then dive into the latest blockbusters across MLS, analyzing Casemiro's 1-0 debut for Inter Miami as a physical midfield anchor, Antoine Griezmann's immediate scoring spark for Orlando City, and Christian's in-person breakdown of Robert Lewandowski's debut for the Chicago Fire against NYCFC. Next, Angel City FC forward Riley Tiernan joins the podcast for a fun, wide-ranging interview. The NWSL sophomore shares her journey from an unsigned trialist to team top scorer, explaining how getting passed over initially fueled her "dog" mentality on the pitch. Riley also details her commitment to Rutgers in 8th grade, breaks down her viral Flying Dutchman order at In-N-Out, discusses her U.S. U-23 national team call-up, and reacts to a viral post-match meme. To close out the episode, Christian and Alexis inject a heavy dose of "hopamine" as they turn their focus toward rebuilding the USMNT for 2030. The hosts highlight six rising American youth prospects who could transform the national team's core—including Philadelphia Union's Cavan Sullivan and 6'6" center back Neil Pierre, dual-national defender Noahkai Banks, Orlando's Justin Ellis, RSL playmaker Zavier Gozo, and Chelsea goalkeeper Gaga Slonina.

Todd was down at Philadelphia Union training on Saturday, for Kai Wagner's first interview with the media since he returned to the club from Birmingham City. Wagner discussed why he came back to Philadelphia, conversations with Sporting Director Jon Scheer, and reflecting on his time in Birmingham. Nathan Harriel shares his thought's on Wagner's return, leadership, and how Wednesday's match against Red Bull New York can be the turnaround the team needs. While Jon Scheer talks about re-acquiring Wagner, updates on Olwethu Makhanya, Neil Pierre and the clubs search for another forward.    Social Media: Twitter: @FreeKickPod Instagram: @FreeKickPod Facebook: @FreeKickPod YouTube: The Free Kick https://thefreekick.substack.com/   Jose's Social Media: Twitter: @JoserNunez91 https://nunezj.substack.com/

Dundee United are closing in on signing No.10 of the summer.   The team chat about what to expect from Philadelphia Union left-back Phillipe Ndinga, who is expected to join the club in the coming days.  The Congo U/20 international will provide competition for Will Ferry, who was back in the Tangerines' team on Saturday and produced a splendid display against Arbroath.   There's also focus on Julius Eskesen, Bert Esselink and why United need to hit the goal trail when The Spartans come to town.   Across the road, it was an afternoon to forget for Dundee keeper Harry Sharp against Everton.   Graeme Finnan, formerly a fine keeper with Lochee United and Dundee North End (among others), assesses an error-strewn showing – and whether there were any positives to take from the visit of the Toffees.   And is there a hint of Luke Graham about Charley Oosenbrugh?  Alan Temple is joined by Graeme Finnan for this Monday's episode.   You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos 

In a shocking turn of events, just six months after leaving the Philadelphia Union for Birmingham City in the English Football Championship, Kai Wagner has returned to the Union. He provides the team with much-needed stability in the backline, along with the leadership qualities it severely lacked in the first half of the MLS season. Todd and José share their thoughts on the news and discuss what could be next for the Philadelphia Union after sporting director Jon Scheer made his first major move. Kai Wagner is back: Philadelphia Union re-acquire Kai Wagner: [3:15] Is there an advantage of having Ryan Richter as interim head coach with the work he's had with Union II: [16:00] How vital will Wagner's arrival be for Alladoh: [20:56] Kai Wagner on not wanting to see the ship go down: [23:06] Jon Scheer on why Wagner made sense: [30:00] How much do you think it hurts Bradley Carnell to see Wagner back / will Quinn Sullivan play on Wednesday: [46:41] "We need stability. We need leadership.

This week, Richard Graves is joined by Anna Cruse, Assistant Athletics Director for Applied Health and Performance Science and Director of Football Performance Science at the University of Utah. Anna's route into sports science began as an international-level rower. Her interest in training, performance and data eventually took her from competing for the United States to helping develop the systems that support athletes across 19 sports at Utah. In this episode, Anna explains how Utah has moved from manual data exports and generalised reporting to faster, integrated workflows that deliver relevant information to coaches and practitioners. She discusses why collecting more data is not always the answer, the importance of educating decision-makers and how greater context can prevent practitioners from drawing the wrong conclusions from a metric. The conversation also explores individual athlete baselines, the limitations of fixed asymmetry thresholds and the need to make data specific to the athlete, position and sport. Anna also shares her perspective on artificial intelligence, including where it can improve performance workflows and why it should never replace qualified human judgement. In this episode you will learn How Anna moved from international rowing into applied sports science Why Utah only collects data it can use to support athletes or performance How the university delivers performance information across 19 different sports Why coaches and support staff must understand the context behind every metric How Utah has developed more sport-, position- and athlete-specific reporting Why fixed thresholds can be misleading when assessing asymmetry How integrated performance teams can make better use of limited resources Where AI can support practitioners without replacing their expertise Why athlete welfare must remain central to every performance decision How strong systems create more time for meaningful analysis About Anna Cruse Anna Cruse is Assistant Athletics Director for Applied Health and Performance Science and Director of Football Performance Science at the University of Utah. A former elite lightweight rower, Anna represented the United States at the World Rowing Under-23 Championships before moving into coaching, performance science and data analytics. Her career has included experience with the Philadelphia Union, Penn State and exercise intelligence company Svexa. At Utah, Anna helps lead the systems used to collect, interpret and communicate performance information across the university's athletic programme. Her work focuses on turning data into useful decisions while ensuring that technology and analysis remain grounded in good science and the needs of the individual athlete.

Todd and José discuss their thoughts from the match, including the Union starting games in second gear, Ben Bender's performance at left back, whether Bradley Carnell will still be in charge by the Union's next home game in July, and assessing Carnell's second-half changes.

The Philadelphia Union took on Columbus for the second time this season and left with a 1-1 draw. Jose Nunez and Mike Barrera sat down to discuss another frustrating home result.

The Philadelphia Union crawled back from being 2-0 and then 3-1 down to Orlando City to eventually fall 4-3 down in Orlando, as the Union now sit in last place in MLS with only one win in 13 matches. Jose is joined by Mark Kelkenberg to recap last night's Philadelphia Union loss.   Social Media: Twitter: @FreeKickPod Instagram: @FreeKickPod Facebook: @FreeKickPod YouTube: The Free Kick https://thefreekick.substack.com/   Jose's Social Media: Twitter: @JoserNunez91 https://nunezj.substack.com/   Mark Social Media: Twitter: @MarkKelkenberg

What a night at Inter & Co Stadium! Orlando City just survived a 7-goal roller coaster against Philadelphia Union, and we're breaking down every heart-stopping moment of that 4-3 win. From Martín Ojeda's heroics to holding off the Union's late surge, the Lions finally showed some teeth!But it's not just about the pitch—the MLSPA 2026 salary data is OUT. We're looking at where Orlando City ranks in the payroll (HINT: 21st in the league at $10M). With teams like Miami and Atlanta spending triple that, is it time for ownership to open up their wallet?

The Philadelphia Union blew a 1–0 lead to the New England Revolution, losing 2–1 and extending their winless streak to five games. Todd and José discuss their thoughts from the match, with topics including the Union once again conceding a late goal for either the equalizer or the lead, Frankie Westfield suffering a hip injury, and the data finally catching up to the eye test.       Social Media: Twitter: @FreeKickPod Instagram: @FreeKickPod Facebook: @FreeKickPod YouTube: The Free Kick https://thefreekick.substack.com/   Jose's Social Media: Twitter: @JoserNunez91 https://nunezj.substack.com/  

The Philadelphia Union are looking to continue their fine road form, where they are 1-1-1 in their last three away matches, as they head north to take on the New England Revolution. Todd is joined by USL Championship/NWSL commentator Mike Watts to preview the upcoming match, with topics such as: whether it's any surprise that the Union and San Jose Earthquakes are in their current positions, what has been the key for New England under first-year head coach Marko Mitrovic, Matt Turner's form, Bradley Carnell's lack of concern over Cavan Sullivan's frustration at being subbed off against Nashville, the partnership between Bruno Damiani and Ezekiel Alladoh, and what each team must do to earn three points on Saturday.   Any surprise for where Philadelphia Union and San Jose Earthquakes currently are: [9:48] New England Revolution v Philadelphia Union: New England under Marko Mitrovic: [24:14] Matt Turner's form: [28:28] Carnell has no issue with Cavan Sullivan's frustration: [35:54] Bruno Damiani / Ezekiel Alladoh partnership: [45:52] What each team needs to do to win: [52:55]   Social Media: Twitter: @FreeKickPod Instagram: @FreeKickPod Facebook: @FreeKickPod YouTube: The Free Kick https://thefreekick.substack.com/   Jose's Social Media: Twitter: @JoserNunez91 https://nunezj.substack.com/   Mike's Social Media: Twitter: @MikeWattsOnAir

The Philadelphia Union and Nashville SC played to a 0–0 draw on Saturday night at Subaru Park, leaving the Union still searching for their first home win this season. The Union created plenty of chances, with shots hitting the post, Brian Schwake denying them four times, and Jovan Lukić missing a golden one-on-one opportunity. With the draw, the Union have now gone undefeated in four of their last five games and remain in last place in the Eastern Conference. Todd and José discuss the latest news, including MLS and KKR, a leading global investment firm, announcing a strategic investment to accelerate the growth of MLS NEXT Pro. They also share their thoughts on the match against Nashville, with topics including Frankie Westfield and Cavan Sullivan's performances, Sullivan being subbed off, Geiner Martínez coming on for an injured Japhet Sery, and whether there have been enough positive signs for the Union to turn the season around.
