Episode 184:

Domenec Torrent stepped into the limelight Saturday afternoon.  He took charge of his first training session and then lead NYCFC to victory over Toronto FC on Sunday.  We all can agree, the team on the field was Patrick’s but it did not take long for Torrent to start making even slight adjustments to improve NYCFC’s game play and ultimately earn the three points at home.

This week Mike, Jon and J.R. discuss the new head coach’s debut.  We also hear from Anton Tinnerholm, Ben Sweat, Sebastian Ibeagha and Jo Inge Berget post game.  And then there’s some World Cup talk and NYCFC Academy discussion.

Episode 167:

Add Mercedes Benz Arena to your list of “Must Visit Soccer Venues in the US”.  It’s as simple as that.  From the facility, to the affordable concessions, to the constant sell-outs there is so much to love about MBS. Luckily for NYCFC, the venue did not intimidate and the visitors left with a solid 2-2 draw retaining their undefeated record.

Mike, J.R. and Mike Allen break down the game and discuss all the key plays.  We also have quotes from Sean Johnson, Jo Inge Berget, David Villa and Alex Ring.

This week Mike’s trip to training brings us a chat with Jo Inge Berget.  In the second segment, Mike and J.R. talk with Jon Huot from the Six States One Pod podcast about New England and their new manager Brad Friedel.

The show wraps up with Patrick Vieira and his weekly chat with the media ahead of this week’s match.
