In the wake of Michele Kang transferring head coach Jonatan Giraldez between two clubs that she owns, the Washington Spirit and OL Lyonnes, the soccer world has begun to question whether multi-club ownership is a good thing for the women's game.This week on Full Time, hosts Tamerra Griffin and Meg Linehan are joined by Aslit Pelit and Emily Olsen of The Athletic for an in-depth discussion into the world of multi-club ownership. What has multi-club ownership looked like in the men's game, and what things can be learned or avoided? How is the Giraldez transfer an inflection point? Why would it be different if a player transferred between affiliated clubs? Is there a pecking order between clubs in a multi-club model? Does the UEFA Women's Champions League still hold the most prestige?PLUS: Tamerra and Meg give their thoughts on the USWNT's 4-0 win over Jamaica, and who impressed during the most recent FIFA international window. Including, their opinion on who the USWNT's starting front three should be while 'Triple Espresso' remains absent._______________Articles mentioned on the show: Down to Business: Multi-club ownership is growing in women's soccer, but ‘execution is everything'Spirit owner Michele Kang sets vision for future of women's soccer with new global football groupFAQs about the Spirit's coaching shuffleJoe Montemurro leaves role as OL Lyonnes head coachSpirit coach Jonatan Giráldez to take OL Lyonnes job, Adrián González to lead Washington_______________HOSTS: Tamerra Griffin, Meg LinehanGUESTS: Asli Pelit, Emily OlsenPRODUCER: Theo Lloyd-HughesVIDEO PRODUCER: Lia GriffinEXECUTIVE PRODUCER: Emily Olsen_______________Get in touch: ⁠⁠fulltime@theathletic.com⁠⁠Follow on Instagram and TikTok: @tafulltimeSubscribe to the Full Time newsletter ⁠⁠here⁠⁠Visit the Yahoo Women's Sports hub ⁠⁠here Hosted on Acast.

In today's episode, Liam revives a prior series from the beginning of the podcast, Woso Weekly, covering the latest news in women's soccer with insightful analysis.He covers the signing of the Icelandic superstar Sveindis Jonsdottir to Angel City FC. He talks about her fit with the club, what this move means for the NWSL as a whole, and why Svendis will reignite an Angel City team that has had ups and downs this season.He also examines the shocking announcement of Jonathon Giraldez's exit from the Washington Spirit just 10 months after his arrival, to a club also owned by Michelle Kang. He acknowledges why this decision undermines the NWSL, and why it is bad press for the league (on top of other PR disasters he covers.) He also talks about what this means for the club going forward, with coaching instability being a saddening trend for the Spirit.Lastly, he talks USWNT U-23 Camp, covering everything from the roster selected, the inconsistent history of the existence of the program, and subsequently the prior generations lost due to this. In our Instagram comments, feel free to share your thoughts on the first weekend of the NWSL season.

Janni Nation, this one is for you! We've got a special episode featuring URFC's newest fan favorite — the dynamic and versatile Danish international, Janni Thomsen. Janni tells us her soccer story, what made this the perfect time to move to the NWSL, and what she aspires to accomplish with the Royal's and Denmark. By the end of the episode, we think you'll love her as much as we do, both on the field and off.  We also recap the insane 3-3 draw against the Washington Spirit at Rowdy Audi, and hope it can be a momentum swing as they host the reigning champs, Orlando Pride on Friday at home. Let's show up big for our team! Thanks as always for listening, and thanks to ABC4Utah for presenting this podcast.

The numbers? Still Sticky! But before they dive back in, Eric and Evan briefly discuss the latest USWNT Roster and one very notable omission (hint: it rhymes Shmorbin Shmalbert). Then, the guys are joined once more by Kim McCauley of the Guardian to finish their review of the data, check their sometimes questionable priors (Utah), and call out a few of their own goals (again, Utah). Teams featured in Part II: Utah Royals (5:42) North Carolina Courage (14:13) Gotham (20:32) Bay FC (27:36) Kansas City Current (35:36) Orlando Pride (44:59) Washington Spirit (58:21) Join our Patreon for only $6/month ($60/year) to get all of our exclusive bonus content!

The URFC squad is back, though missing our beloved Sir Sean, for an episode that goes beyond the pitch. We take a moment to send our thoughts, prayers, and unwavering support to Savy King as she begins her road to recovery. We hold space for reflections from those who know Savy best: her teammate in LA and former Royals player, Christen Press, and Alex Loera, a close friend and former teammate. We also share post-game media from Royals head coach, Jimmy Coonraets, who offers a heartfelt reminder that some things are truly bigger than the game. We recap the Royals' recent losses and struggles on the pitch against the Courage and Angel City, and preview Saturday's road match against the Washington Spirit, hoping to bring home points before we face Orlando Pride at home next week.  As always, thank you for listening! Royal Riot is presented by ABC4Utah.

The NWSL has always prided itself on chaos. A league where anyone can beat anyone. But five weeks into the 2025 season, things are looking awfully similar to 2024.
