Podcast appearances and mentions of Robert Lewandowski

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.

Fresh off their 11-city Breakaway Tour, Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros return to the studio to process the post-World Cup soccer landscape. Christian kicks off the episode with an unbelievable travel horror story about a chaotic flight delay from Miami to Dallas involving an intoxicated passenger, an unruly accusation, and an emergency flight attendant swap. The hosts then dive into a blueprint for the future, detailing radical ways to overhaul US Soccer and turn the USMNT into legitimate contenders for the 2030 World Cup—from ending pay-to-play under Arsène Wenger and merging CONCACAF with CONMEBOL to creating a 50-state "States Cup" tournament. Next, the guys welcome USMNT midfielder Tyler Adams for an exclusive, wide-ranging interview. Tyler breaks his silence on the team's World Cup exit against Belgium, setting the record straight on what really went down in camp when Folarin Balogun's red card suspension was rescinded 20 hours before kickoff. He reflects on Mauricio Pochettino's front-foot tactical philosophy, reveals why Pochettino declaring he "wished he was American" after singing Country Roads was his favorite team memory, and details his ongoing community mini-pitch initiative with Allstate. Finally, the hosts analyze the summer transfer window frenzy and critique the latest kit drops across world football. They break down major moves including Morgan Rogers' £117M transfer to Chelsea, Anthony Gordon joining Barcelona, Robert Lewandowski signing with the Chicago Fire, and Casemiro's move to Inter Miami amid LA Galaxy discovery-rights drama. They close out the show with a look at Manchester City and Real Madrid's roster overhauls, Sebastian Berhalter's transfer to Middlesbrough, and a fashion breakdown of the best and worst jerseys of the season.   Timestamps: (00:00) — Post-Tour Return & Christian's Wild Flight Delay Story (12:29) — 10 Ways to Fix the USMNT & Win the 2030 World Cup (41:46) — Tyler Adams Exclusive: Balogun Red Card Drama, Poch's Impact & Belgium Defeat (51:49) — Blockbuster Transfers: Morgan Rogers to Chelsea & Anthony Gordon to Barça (01:01:41) — MLS Transfer Chaos: Casemiro, Lewandowski & Sebastian Berhalter (01:13:20) — European Giants Overhaul: Man City's Rebuild & Real Madrid's Free Transfers (01:20:26) — Kit Reviews: Best & Worst Jersey Drops of the Season Subscribe to The Cooligans on your favorite podcast app:

Hey, soccer fans! It's been a few days, but the emotions of losing Hugo Cuypers to CF Monterrey of Liga MX are still very strong. Tune in as Nick goes through his anger, bargaining, and acceptance, as he tries to make sense of why the Chicago Fire would transfer their All-Star striker and MLS Golden Boot leader. Was there ever a world where both Cuypers and Polish international superstar Robert Lewandowski could have co-existed, or was there simply no way a player of Cuypers' talent could play second-fiddle - even to an all-time great. Nick looks at the emotional impact, the roster implications, and the financial aspects of the Men in Red's recent moves, and gives his not-too-optimistic take on the rest of the season.

Welcome back to another episode of the Third Sub Podcast!In this episode, Alex and Sam are back, as usual, this time to chat about all things Vancouver Whitecaps, Vancouver Rise, Vancouver FC and Pacific FC. To begin, they dive into the latest from the Whitecaps, who have finally returned to action after a lengthy break due to the World Cup. Despite that, they didn't show much rust in their first games back, as they handily dispatched Cavalry FC in the Canadian Championship, in the exact sort of matchup they would've struggled in before. They look at what the Whitecaps learned from those matches, before looking at the way the team is coming together ahead of a crucial stretch of play. The first game of that stretch? A clash against the Chicago Fire, who recently welcomed the great Robert Lewandowski to their ranks, in what will be a great matchup between two of the top teams in MLS statistically - no better way for the Whitecaps to dive back into league play.Meanwhile, elsewhere in the province, Vancouver FC and Pacific FC have continued to roll on in Canadian Premier League action, but both teams are on vastly different paths right now, as Vancouver are starting to catch fire, while Pacific are struggling. They look at what's working for Vancouver, and where Pacific have come up short as they get set to begin the Terry Dunfield era. Lastly, they take a look at the latest out of the Vancouver Rise, who have continued to run hot and cold this season, one that hasn't gone to plan for the defending league champions.Make sure to check out The Third Sub Podcast on Twitter, @thirdsubpod, as well as on Instagram, @the3rdsub_.

The U.S. men's national team faces a must-win World Cup round-of-32 match against Bosnia and Herzegovina tonight. Alex Calabrese, who covers soccer for Men in Red 97 Media and MLSsoccer.com, joins us to preview the game, catch us up on how Illinois-connected players have fared in the tournament so far, and break down what the Chicago Fire's signing of Robert Lewandowski means for the club.

Alexi Lalas and David Mosse are back with a LIVE episode of State of the Union! What a day in the 2026 FIFA World Cup™! Paraguay pulled off one of the upsets of the tournament, sending Germany home through penalty kicks and we discuss all the ramifications of that result. Should Germany replace Julian Nagelsmann as their head coach, could Jürgen Klopp be a potential successor, where does this leave the German national team in general and more. Brazil came back from a 1-0 deficit to beat Japan and to end the night, Morocco sent the Netherlands packing also on penalties. We then preview the next slate of matches than will see hosts Mexico, Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappé back in action and we end the show with Alexi's Moment of the Day.

Paraguay knocked out Germany on penalties in one of the great upsets in World Cup history, and the day was just getting started. Brazil came from behind in stoppage time to beat Japan in Houston. The Netherlands and Morocco went the distance in Monterrey. And in the middle of it all, Paraguay's president declared a national holiday and Gustavo Alfaro gave one of the great manager press conferences of this generation. Jason Longshore breaks down the historic upset and the human stories behind it, from Orlando Gill's two penalty saves and his rise from selling national team jerseys four years ago, to Gustavo Gómez calling Germany's task "sweating blood," to Alfaro's now famous line about Paraguay finally getting to dance their own music. Carlo Ancelotti gave the quote of the World Cup so far on respecting the opponent after Brazil's comeback win, and Cody Gakpo scored for the Netherlands days after the loss of his unborn son, in a moment that made the game feel secondary. Wednesday brings the World Cup to Atlanta with England and DR Congo in the round of 32, and the United States face Bosnia and Herzegovina in Santa Clara. Plus a look ahead to Argentina vs Cape Verde in Miami on Friday, with Atlanta potentially hosting Messi the following Tuesday. Robert Lewandowski lands in MLS with the Chicago Fire, the FIFA Technical Study Group celebrates a faster World Cup, and the conversation continues on Stoppage Time. Atlanta Soccer Tonight is presented by Ford and Michelob Ultra, the official beer sponsor of FIFA World Cup 26.

The Polish striker is sure to have an immediate and positive impact on the pitch for the Men in Red - this is now officially their trophy window being opened.

Mike Mulligan and Gabe Ramirez continued to discuss the top sports stories in the Pick 6 segment.

Special guest Tom Bogert — now an official friend of the pod — joins John and Tim as Robert Lewandowski's move to the Chicago Fire moves frum rumor to official. Tom and Tim talk about what they know — with a deal all but confirmed but no ink on paper as of the time of recording.The trio then discuss what Lewandowski's signing would mean for the Fire, both on and off the pitch: What does Lewy's arrival mean for Hugo Cuypers, the Fire's Golden Boot-leading striker? Will two prove to be a dynamic duo, or will Hugo find himself in a new uniform before the end of the season? Tom then talks about his reporting with Paul Tenorio about the Fire's continued pursuit of German midfielder Leon Goretzka, confirmed to be moving on from Bayern and currently with the German National Team as they seek to advance in the World Cup.Speaking of — for the first time ever, two Chicago Fire players met on opposing sides of a World Cup match, as Joel Waterman's CanMNT teammates arranged for the World Cup exit for Mbekezeli Mbokazi and Bafana Bafana.

Hey, soccer fans! Still waiting on Robert Lewandowski transfer news? In this episode, Nick presents his conspiracy theory as to why the potential signing has not yet been announced. It involves everything from a large Hugo Cuypers transfer feee to a departing Jonathan Bamba, and from a Leon Goretzka move to not sharing the spotlight with the World Cup and USMNT at the instruction of MLS league offices and Don Garber. Nick also discusses the transfer rumors surrounding USA players Christian Pulisic - who has been linked with a move from AC Milan to New York City FC; Matt Freese - who's been rumored to have interest from English clubs; Tyler Adams - who's on the radar of Manchester United and Chelsea FC; and others.

Hey, soccer fans! The United States Men's National Team put on a historic performance against Paraguay in their openeing match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, defeating the South American side 4-1. An own goal got the scoring started for the Yanks, but Falorin Balogun bagged a brace, and Gio Reyna pitched in, as well. The USMNT dominated all stages of the game, coming out strong, controlling the pace, and breaking down a good Paraguayan defence to score - all things critics have pointed out over the last several matches. It's a great moment for the US Men and for American soccer fans. Let's keep it going! Nick also recaps the World Cup scoreboard and results, highlighting notable matches and results, and how it could affect the knockout rounds. We also discuss the Chicago Fire's latest transfer targets. Polish striker Robert Lewandowski was in Chicago for a visit and meetings, and left impressed with the organization. It is now up to him to consider the Men in Red's offer - rumored to be up to $22 million a year for 2-3 years. German international Leon Goretzka has also been targed by the Fire, who are looking for more creativity out of their midfield. Could we see the two Bayern Munich stars reunite in Chicago? The Fire are also rumored to have interest in Australian international and Heart of Midlothian midfielder Cammy Devlin. I'm sure he'll be a hard target to obtain after a good perofrmance by the Aussies this World Cup. Tune in and join the conversation!

FIFA Barbarians 26: The World Cup Team FIFA ForgotShould FIFA create a World Cup Barbarians team for future men's and women's tournaments?In this special episode of By Far The Greatest Team, we take one of football's most ridiculous ideas and, naturally, start treating it far more seriously than we probably should.What if FIFA held back one slot at future World Cups for a Barbarians-style football team — a mixed squad made up of players whose nations failed to qualify, players left out of final squads, and the great talents the tournament simply does not get to show?No, not to replace national teams.No, not to steal anyone's place.But to give football's biggest tournament one more story.Welcome to the FIFA Barbarians 26.Using our own selection rules — players must either come from nations that failed to qualify or have been left out by countries that did, with a maximum of three players from any one nation — we build a fantasy squad good enough to make FIFA's marketing department reach for a whiteboard.There are elite goalkeepers denied the stage.There are defenders from Italy, England and beyond.There are midfielders with Premier League power, Champions League class and World Cup heartbreak.There are forwards who would terrify most international back lines.And yes, there is a manager. A very particular manager.We name-drop, argue over, and eventually select from players including Jan Oblak, Donnarumma, Ramsdale, Matty Cash, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Harry Maguire, Alessandro Bastoni, Sandro Tonali, Dominik Szoboszlai, Foden, Palmer, Kvaratskhelia, Bryan Mbeumo, Lookman, Victor Osimhen, Robert Lewandowski, João Pedro and many more.But who actually makes the final XI?Who gets squeezed out by the three-player-per-nation rule?And which manager is trusted to lead football's most chaotic tournament experiment?That is where the fun begins.TakeawaysWhy a World Cup Barbarians team might be a ridiculous idea FIFA should actually take seriouslyHow players from failed nations and major squad snubs could form a genuine elite sideWhy modern football, fantasy football culture and global fandom make this idea more relevant than everThe case for including a Barbarians team in future men's and women's FIFA World CupsThe rules behind our FIFA Barbarians 26 selection processWhy the missing-player pool is much stronger than it first appearsHow the three-player-per-nation rule creates some brutal selection callsAnd why this is not just a fantasy XI — it is a proper football argumentIf you love football history, World Cup debate, fantasy XIs, classic tournament stories, tactical arguments, forgotten stars, cult heroes, and slightly absurd ideas taken far too seriously, this one is for you.Follow By Far The Greatest Team for more football history, legendary teams, forgotten sides, cult heroes, World Cup stories and the search for the greatest football team of all time.If you enjoy these podcasts, please don't forget to subscribe and give us a rating and also tell everyone about them!

For decades, the striker had one job: stand in the box and score goals. Then Guardiola made them midfielders, Klopp made them defenders, and now Erling Haaland has arrived to destroy the system. Welcome back to FUT IN REVIEW | World Cup Daily. In Episode 5, host GPM is joined by Art (all the way from Poland) and John (live from Perth) to settle the ultimate football debate.Has the classic center-forward actually died, or is Haaland proving it was just waiting?

We contrast tournament favorites Spain (building around Yamal and Nico Williams without a traditional striker) against dark horses Norway (completely built around feeding Haaland).The Complete Forward: Why Harry Kane is the ultimate modern template—and whether he will secure the Golden Boot for England.The Lewandowski Dilemma: Art breaks down why Robert Lewandowski thrives at Barcelona but struggles as a classic 9 for Poland.Listen Early & Win Prizes: Want to hear every episode the exact second we finish recording?

Hemos empezado el Magazine tratando de buscar, con Galder Reguera y Rafa Cabeleira, el verdadero significado de la marcha de la Liga española de leyendas como Antoine Griezmann y Robert Lewandowski o, en los banquillos, la del hasta ahora entrenador del Athletic Club, Ernesto Valverde. Después hemos repasado las declaraciones de Florentino Pérez y el futuro inmediato del Real Madrid. En "El artesano", con Pablo Ortiz de Zárate hemos mirado de frente al cuadro Frederic William Burton, "Encuentro en las escaleras de la torre", uno de los cuadros más románticos de la historia del arte. Para concluir en Mitos 2.0, y también con Ortiz de Zárate, en el "Día Mundial de los Museos", le hemos pedido a los oyentes que nos cuenten si ratifican o refutan el mitos de este lunes: "A los museos vamos por postureo".

The World Cup is about to swallow the transfer window whole, which means free agents may be a smart play this summer. Patrick and Neel run through 10 players hitting the market for nothing, break down what they actually offer, and try to find them a home. Mo Salah's attitude problem, Konaté's Liverpool stalemate, why Bernardo Silva doesn't fit the Premier League anymore, the Vlahović wages nightmare, and whether Casemiro is genuinely MLS-bound. Plus: the centre-back generating midfielder numbers, the midfielder Patrick has never liked, and Lewandowski's increasingly narrow path to a good move. Enjoy!

#współpracakomercyjna #klient Gościem podcastu Wojewódzki | Kędzierski jest prawdziwy generator napięcia! Od 35 lat opowiada historię, która dzieje się na naszych oczach, często trafiając swoimi komentarzami celniej niż… sami piłkarze. Dziś pierwszy raz rozbiera na części swoje emocje. Jacek Laskowski — komentator sportowy, dziennikarz i… lekarz. Człowiek, który potrafi jednym zdaniem podnieść ciśnienie w całym kraju. 10 milionów ludzi przed telewizorami, on, mikrofon i 90 minut, które trzeba wypełnić głosem. Czy towarzyszy mu jeszcze trema? W tej rozmowie wspominamy także momenty, w których futbol przestaje być rozrywką. Wracamy do historii Antonio Puerty. Co się mówi, kiedy na murawie umiera zawodnik, a cały świat na chwilę wstrzymuje oddech? Czy komentatorzy sportowi są przygotowywani na tak dramatyczne wydarzenia? Czy był taki moment podczas komentowania meczu, kiedy „się ulało"? Których słów dziś, z perspektywy czasu, żałuje? Czy w jego głowie czasem pojawia się myśl: „co wy robicie, kur**a, panowie?!", a wygrywa z nią wewnętrzna cenzura? Padają też nazwiska, które elektryzują: Julia Wieniawa, Jan Urban, Anita Werner i Robert Lewandowski. Ostatni: legenda czy nietykalny projekt narodowy? I czy w tym kraju w ogóle da się powiedzieć coś wbrew tłumowi? Czy dostawał kiedyś groźby od kibiców? Porozmawiamy też o zbliżających się Mistrzostwach Świata w Piłce Nożnej. Dlaczego według niego przedstawiciele FIFY powinni częściej patrzeć w lustro niż w tabelę wyników? Więcej w najnowszym odcinku. Zapraszamy.

Robert Lewandowski is one of the most consistent goal scorers of his generation, a player who has stayed at the very top of world football not just through talent, but through mindset. In this episode, Robert sits down with Jake and Damian to explain why he believes mentality counts for more than physical ability, and how players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have sustained excellence for so long.From losing his father to being released early on, he describes the moments that forced him to build self-belief, resilience, and an uncompromising work ethic. He also talks about adapting as football evolves, learning from different cultures at Bayern Munich and Barcelona, and why even the modern elite, players like Erling Haaland and Harry Kane, can't escape the need for constant growth.Lewandowski explains why he avoids social media, how online judgement impacts younger players, and why protecting mental health is his personal “golden rule.” Drawing on lessons from managers like Jürgen Klopp, Pep Guardiola, Carlo Ancelotti, and Hansi Flick, he shares the core values that have shaped his career: honesty, hard work, and never giving up.This is a rare insight into what it really takes to perform, adapt, and endure at the highest level, without losing yourself along the way.
