We start by putting ourselves in the shoes of an ambitious manager and ranking four Premier League jobs — Aston Villa, Crystal Palace, Manchester United, and Tottenham — based purely on the talent in their current squads (no owners, no budgets, no crystal balls). From there, we head to Serie A to ask what on earth has gone wrong at Fiorentina, a club usually sniffing around European places but now stuck at the bottom after a winless start. We also dig into football romance, wondering whether a truly world-class player has ever chosen a mid-table (or worse) club simply because it was their childhood team. Plus: does Aston Villa’s second-half surge against Chelsea prove that halftime is where elite coaches really earn their money? And finally, why do managers love subbing off goal scorers late in tight games — even when it feels completely counterintuitive?WATCH TSS EPISODES ON YOUTUBE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠We're posting all our episodes here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

We're once again sorting through your hot takes! We're discussing whether MLS should ditch the idea of a sprint season and instead use an 18-month bridge to a true fall-to-spring calendar, the case for the United States hosting AFCON as World Cup prep for both sides, and how the unique ecosystem of MLS may actually complicate the transition for coaches moving to Europe. We’ll also debate whether the Europa League and Conference League are simply more fun than the Champions League thanks to chaos, atmospheres, and underdogs, before closing with a bold striker take — that Kai Havertz will outscore Viktor Gyökeres this season.WATCH TSS EPISODES ON YOUTUBE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠We're posting all our episodes here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

Only swap deals and free transfers.5) Trinity Rodman will go down as the greatest USWNT player ever.6) U.S. Soccer should not use the war chest on a top level manager like Poch.
