There's been a lot of talk about what's going on behind the scenes with the Seattle Sounders. To help us get to the bottom of that, we asked Niko Moreno to join us. As you might imagine, it's not all rainbows and unicorns but possibly not as messy as you might fear. It's also becoming apparent that the players are aware that change is on the way and how some of them are positioning themselves for their next moves.

Aug 29, 2023•52 min•Ep 427•Transcript available on Metacast Welcome to the first episode of a still-unnamed show. It’s envisioned as a minipodcast by Sounder at Heart. Today is Monday, Aug. 28 and I am Jeremiah Oshan. My hope is to do this podcast every Monday and every morning of a gameday with the intention of sort of seting the table for what just happened or what we expect to happen. For today’s episode, I’ll be doing a quick breakdown of the Minnesota United match, giving a quick preview of the Austin FC match on Wednesday and looking back on my sto...
Aug 28, 2023•26 min•Ep 426•Transcript available on Metacast We tried something new with the mailbag episode: Rather than soliciting questions from Twitter, we sourced them from our new Discord server. We were really pleased with the quality of questions and talked a lot about roster building, who might succeed Brian Schmetzer eventually as well as talked a bit about the new minority owners. It went so well, that we think we'll keep doing it this way for at least the next few weeks. This is also a good chance to promote the Discord server, access to which...
Aug 24, 2023•44 min•Ep 425•Transcript available on Metacast Coming out of a three-week break in which they presumably worked on tactics, got rejuvenated were hoping to start the stretch run off strong, the Sounders instead turned in one of their worst performances of the season, a 2-0 loss at home to Atlanta United. The first half was especially bad with the Sounders surrendering 70% of possession and getting run off the pitch at times. Jeremiah and Aaron discuss where we go from here.

Aug 23, 2023•24 min•Ep 424•Transcript available on Metacast Garth Lagerwey spent eight mostly very successful season with the Seattle Sounders. On Sunday, he makes his return as the President and CEO of Atlanta United. As he did regularly when he was with the Sounders, Lagerwey was very gracious with his time when he met with us on Wednesday. We talked about his transition to Atlanta, what he has liked about Leagues Cup and what he thinks of the roster he left the Sounders and Craig Waibel. Producer's note: Jeremiah had some audio difficulties and as a r...

Jul 20, 2023•36 min•Ep 418•Transcript available on Metacast That was not what the Sounders needed or were really expecting was it? Coming off a disappointing loss to the Earthquakes, and needing a win badly, the Sounders played much better but still had to settle for a 1-1 tie with FC Dallas. The Sounders have now not scored more than one goal or won consecutive games at home in about three months. This while playing good by almost all the underlying numbers. Still, the sounders head into the Leagues Cup break not in an entirely awful position, fourth in...

Jul 18, 2023•37 min•Ep 416•Transcript available on Metacast Remember all those good vibes from a couple of days ago? Those seem to be pretty much gone after the Sounders looked very flat in a 2-0 loss to the San Jose Earthquakes. Going with a very lightly rotated lineup, the Sounders looked like a team that was not at anywhere close to its best. Mark Kastner joins Jeremiah for this quick pod.

Jul 12, 2023•57 min•Ep 414•Transcript available on Metacast The Sounders finally scored a goal at home. It only took 405 minutes, but they did and it was enough to snap a five-game winless run. As luck would have it, they also moved up to second in the Western Conference table thanks to LAFC losing to the LA Galaxy, allowing the Sounders to inch ahead on goal-difference. The goal, it should be said, was very well-taken. It started with Obed Vargas driving forward to find Nicolas Lodeiro, who worked a 1-2 with Léo Chu, who then found Albert Rusnak for a l...

The Sounders have now gone scoreless in three straight home game and have been shut out in 4 of 5 overall.

Jun 16, 2023•31 min•Ep 406•Transcript available on Metacast Give the Sounders this: At least they made it entertaining. The Sounders finally broke out of their scoring doldrums by putting three past Charlotte FC, including a brace from Raul Ruidiaz and another from Cristian Roldan in both of their first starts in about two months. The only problem? The Sounders also gave up three goals, albeit all pretty well taken. Each of Charlotte’s goals erased a Sounders lead, meaning the Sounders blew more leads in this game than they had in their previous 17 combi...

Jun 08, 2023•21 min•Ep 402•Transcript available on Metacast That was not much fun. While the Sounders managed to stop their losing streak against the Timbers and picked up their ninth shutout of the season, the match itself was a pretty massive letdown. Not only did it end in this rivalries first scorless tie of the MLS era, but there simply wasn’t much action. The Sounders only took five shots and the two teams combined for just .6 expected goals. It was ugly. As someone who has suggested the Sounders’ performances have mostly been better than the score...
