Episode 464:
Talles Magno’s time with NYCFC will never be clearly defined in a single term or word. His arrival was met with high praise and fanfare. He was a key to the NYCFC offense often drawing double team defense that created space for others to operate. He was a magician with the ball at his feet, but following the departure of Ronny Deila Talles was mismanaged. Nick Cushing’s style didn’t favor Talles’s talents and the situation quickly became the cliche of the square peg in the round hole.
This week Mike Anderer, J.R. deBart and Mike Allen look back the young Brazilian phenoms career with NYCFC. They also discuss how this departure and the conversations that Nick Cushing shared with the press inform how Nick will be judged as a coach that can be trusted.
In the second segment the guys touch on the game in New England from Friday and the upcoming match at Red Bull Arena against Tigres.
