It’s Episode 61 of It’s Called Soccer 🎉 It’s straight into Arsenal v Spurs, where Theo opens up about whether he still dislikes — including a brilliant throwback to the iconic “2-0” moment. From there, Theo on his love for Eberechi Eze, breaking down his competition with Odegaard and whether he could really break into Arsenal’s XI. Over to Chelsea, and the big question: are they quietly title contenders? Theo and Taylor go back and forth in a great debate. Then comes Liverpool’s crisis. Taylor and Theo dive into why Liverpool aren’t playing to Isak’s strengths, why Theo believes Isak is partly to blame, and whether Liverpool should’ve made him adapt his game. Theo also argues Liverpool have made a mistake — and the guys get into whether Slot’s job is already at risk. There’s more: reactions to the Columbus Crew coach heading to Celtic, plus Taylor’s strong take on Mascherano dropping Luis Suárez — and why the team might actually be better without him. The boys also tackle MLS: The leagues switch to a European-style calendar? Would it finally help bring in bigger and better players?
