BRAD EVANS (Seattle Sounders/World Cup Analyst) We are on World Cup Eve! What does it mean to Brad to not only be a part of the World Cup broadcasts, but to have it happening right here in Seattle. The US needs to take a step forward- why hasn't it happened and what needs to happen to make the shift? What does Brad expect from them on Friday? Can they make a run? What would be more shocking; the US not making it out of pool play or going on a run? :30- It's time to check in with our listeners and answer their burning questions… Sup? :45- We wrap up the humpday show with one last thing!

Welcome to Episode 438 of the Heart of LAFC podcast. Join us, as we celebrate a critical win for LAFC against the Seattle Sounders and prepare for the World Cup break. Stay Golden LA!
As MLS pauses for the World Cup, we'll give our takes on the weekend's loss to LAFC, then revisit the letter grades we handed out for the Seattle Sounders' strikers, midfielders, defenders, goalkeepers, and coaching staff a few weeks ago and update them. Who's improved, who's slipped, and have any of our assessments changed based on the challenging last few weeks? We'll also react to The Guardian leak confirming Cristian Roldan on the USMNT roster (cue the meltdown from the USMNT bots and haters) and run through Pochettino's full squad and debate whether this group actually has a shot to perform at the World Cup.Follow Lobbing Scorchers: YouTube Instagram Bluesky TikTok Facebook Ari Liljenwall Noah Riffe Niko MorenoSPONSORSQED Coffee - a Seattle based roaster, coffee shop and coffee subscription service.

The back of the net was finally found. The Reign turned their luck around after Van hired a witch – coincidence? Seattle faced Boston Legacy on Friday evening in the small state of Rhode Island, earning a much needed 3 points. We get into the win, including the team finally getting on the scoresheet, not just once but twice after an uncomfortably long goal drought. We also dive into other NWSL results and close out the show previewing the Reign's next match.SPONSORSSounder at Heart - Our network host and biggest supporter, Sounder at Heart covers the Seattle Sounders, Seattle Reign, and MUCH MORE!

Travis, Darren, and Vince recap LAFC's 1-0 home win over the Seattle Sounders in a strangely high-stakes May match that most likely wouldn't have impacted Marc Dos Santos's job status, BUT COULD've... and DID end LAFC's two-month winless run at BMO Stadium. After a rare full week with time to train, they played... almost like they had time to train? Son Heung-min and Denis Bouanga looking good together again; David Martinez, Hollingshead, TILLMAN?

One day Seattle will score again, Friday was not that day. The Reign fell to Gotham 2-0 Friday night at Lumen Field. With the team's goalless drought now reaching 5 matches, we discuss our frustrations with the lack of offseason signings that led to this problem as well as the other issues the team had in this most recent loss.

On this episode, we break down the emotional rollercoaster that is the Seattle Sounders, from the season's best win straight into the worst loss, the end of the home undefeated streak, and a worrying stretch of form that was only partially salvaged by the Earthquakes win. We talk Moose's tooth, then dive into some obligatory striker discourse, including a discussion on whether Seattle's investment in Jordan Morris was justified, and what Craig Waibel's response might be if asked about urgency at the striker position. Then, we widen out to the Western Conference, debate which team is clearly superior to Seattle, and preview LAFC as the next opponent: what's the vibe going into that matchup at BMO Stadium and how should Seattle approach it?Follow Lobbing Scorchers: YouTube Instagram Bluesky TikTok Facebook Ari Liljenwall Noah Riffe Niko MorenoSPONSORS☕️ Lobbing Scorchers Kickoff is presented by QED Coffee a Seattle based roaster, coffee shop and coffee subscription service.

Once again, every MLS club is out of Conacaf Champions Cup, which means the 2022 Seattle Sounders remain the ONLY MLS team to ever win the modern version of the tournament. What did that Sounders team have that the rest of MLS still hasn't replicated? We dive into the roster construction, mentality, depth, experience and timing that helped Seattle break through where every other club has fallen short. Then we shift into the ongoing No. 9 discourse surrounding the Sounders attack, including the current striker platoon of Jordan Morris, Osaze De Rosario and Danny Musovski. Is there a real answer on this roster? We wrap up by digging through the MLS salary guide to identify the biggest bargains, best values, and biggest over- and under-performers on Seattle's roster relative to their contracts.Follow Lobbing Scorchers: YouTube Instagram Bluesky TikTok Facebook Ari Liljenwall Noah Riffe Niko MorenoSPONSORS☕️ Lobbing Scorchers Kickoff is presented by QED Coffee a Seattle based roaster, coffee shop and coffee subscription service.

A night to forget in Kansas City. The LA Galaxy fell 1-3 to Sporting KC, a team that hadn't won in eight matches. From "staying in the hotel room" to a lack of tactical flexibility, we break down why this performance was truly unacceptable for a playoff-contending team.

Where will the goals be coming from this week, with two matches being held at the T? What line-ups will the Seattle Sounders put on the pitch against the league leaders tomorrow? Or on Saturday against the Galaxy? And what on earth is going on with that neck?

A lack of quality chances is becoming a theme. The Reign dropped another 3 points at home with Sunday's loss to the Washington Spirit. Now four straight matches without scoring a goal, we try to answer the pressing question: are the Reign in big trouble?

We'll kick off with a full breakdown of another 1-1 draw for the Seattle Sounders and why the result felt like two points dropped after the Sporting KC stalemate. Then, we shift into the ongoing discourse: who should lead the Sounders' attack? Was Danny Musovski's goal against San Diego enough to earn him a run in the starting role? We also address the emerging left-back issue after Nouhou appeared to take a knock late in the match, who might need to step in, and how that change could affect the lineup. Later on, we preview a daunting midweek matchup with the high-flying, league-leading San Jose Earthquakes and outline adjustments Seattle must make to survive a side in excellent form. Finally, we scan MLS Matchday 12, highlight LAFC's surprising collapse to Houston, and consider whether Concacaf Champions Cup fatigue is a league-wide factor.Follow Lobbing Scorchers: YouTube Instagram Bluesky TikTok Facebook Ari Liljenwall Noah Riffe Niko MorenoSPONSORS☕️ Lobbing Scorchers Kickoff is presented by QED Coffee a Seattle based roaster, coffee shop and coffee subscription service.

Tickets are free and you can get them here!Sporting Kansas City showed signs of life this past weekend. After dropping six straight results and falling to a .500 team historically for the first time in years, they surprised everyone and battled back for a draw against the Seattle Sounders. It's a sliver of the progress we've all been waiting for this season after a string of very bad results.There was lots to like but also lots to still improve on in the game. One of the biggest changes was Stefan Cleveland at goalkeeper, a job he'll apparently have for the foreseeable future. Sheena and I weigh in on Cleveland and what was differ and Sheena copes with John Pulskamp heading to the bench.We also talk through the other moments from the game, including other changes, Dejan Joveljic's clutch goal, Shapi Suleymanov's performance and more. We also chime in on the retirements of Kei Kamara and Krisztian Nemeth as well as some good news for former Sporting KC Homegrown, Gianluca Busio.The KC Current did one better and went ahead and won their game over the North Carolina Courage. It was an uneven performance against a team on short rest but there were a lot of 2026 firsts. It was the first time the KC Current didn't allow the first goal. And more importantly, it was their first road win of the season.In the Digital Crawl, we hit on a few more topics, including:SKC II resultsLas Vegas trying to steal the Vancouver Whitecaps (#SaveTheCaps)MLS Next Pro may be relocating and rebranding teamsUSL and the USLPA may have found labor peaceHere is a rundown of sections and start times:Intro & a Free Library KC Soccer Journal event - 0:00Sporting KC - 6:45KC Current - 45:10Digital Crawl - 58:27Upcoming GamesSKC II vs. Ventura County, WED, May 6th at 7:00PM CSTSporting KC @ Portland Timbers, SAT, May 9th at 9:30PMKC Current vs. Chicago Stars, SUN, May 10th at 11:30AM (Mother's Day)SKC II @ Rapids 2, SUN, May 10th at 7:00PMAs a special gift to For the Glory KC listeners and KC Soccer Journal readers, Backheeled.com is giving away 30 days of their amazing, independent American soccer coverage for free.

The defense secured a much needed clean sheet. In this week's episode of The Cooler Guild, we discuss the Reign's scoreless draw versus the Dash, including Claudia Dickey's standout performance on a slick surface and the scoring drought that seems to be plaguing the team.

We check in after Seattle's surprising 1-1 draw at Sporting KC and discuss if we should be worried about the offense or chalk this one up as an outlier amid an otherwise strong start. Then it's time to preview Seattle's upcoming showdown with San Diego FC at Lumen Field this Saturday. We'll see if we can figure out why SDFC have regressed from last year's historic expansion form, and why Anders Dreyer still makes them dangerous. Later on, we'll dive into some league-wide results reaction from Matchday 11, including the fallout from Inter Miami blowing a 3-0 lead to Orlando City, which many are calling one of the biggest chokes/greatest comebacks in MLS history.

What a win, whatta win. Gotta love the start of the season for the Seattle Sounders here in 2026. And gotta start hating on the issues with the Vancouver Whitecaps, so we do.
In this episode of the Designated Players Podcast, we continue our series where we retell the stories of MLS history. We've gone through all the team's subreddits and asked for different stories they remember about their teams, and we've got a list of almost all of them.

In this episode, we'll discuss the Seattle Sounders' big win over FC Dallas in Matchday 10, then preview this weekend's trip to Children's Mercy Park to face Sporting Kansas City aka the “Club of Professional Enthusiasts” who happen to be the actual worst team in Major League Soccer at the moment. We'll take a look at the Wrestling Enthusiasts' roster and see if we can figure out why they're so bad. How do you approach a match against bad opposition without getting complacent? Can the Seattle Sounders Road Show keep their attacking form rolling in KC? Later on we'll jump around the league and discuss some of the other results and headlines from around MLS.Follow Lobbing Scorchers: YouTube Instagram Bluesky TikTok Facebook Ari Liljenwall Noah Riffe Niko MorenoSPONSORS☕️ Lobbing Scorchers Kickoff is presented by QED Coffee a Seattle based roaster, coffee shop and coffee subscription service.

In this episode, we break down the biggest threats standing between the Seattle Sounders and a 2026 Supporters' Shield run. Who should we be most worried about, and can Seattle stay in the mix? We also dive into a key lineup question ahead of this Saturday's matchup vs. FC Dallas: Could Jesús Ferreira slot into the No. 10 role if Albert Rusnák is sidelined with injury? What would that mean for the attack? Then, we dive into our discussion about the oligarch class continuing to price gouge every possible facet of the World Cup, including concerns over rising ticket prices and lack of transportation support and outlandish costs for fans.In this week's Agenda Check, Ari shares some trade regret regarding Georgi Minoungou. We had another frustrating VAR controversy in MLS – what needs to change? Does Stuart Hawkins deserves a bigger role moving forward? We close it out by talking about the “Save the Caps” movement and how supporters can push back against the potential oligarch relocation of the Vancouver Whitecaps.Follow Lobbing Scorchers: YouTube Instagram Bluesky TikTok Facebook Ari Liljenwall Noah Riffe Niko MorenoSPONSORS☕️ Lobbing Scorchers Kickoff is presented by QED Coffee a Seattle based roaster, coffee shop and coffee subscription service.
