Ben Fisher

We ran out of superlatives 15 years ago.

Like it's been a really big problem for the podcasting fraternity.

There's absolutely nothing new to say about him.

You're just going to have to update the numbers and just marvel at the fact that this man just never goes away.

It's ridiculous.

But I also just think,

The only vaguely intelligent thing, perhaps, maybe I'm stretching it here that I feel like I can add, is that I do think this tournament sets up particularly well for him.

One thing is that he's played here for a little while, so traveling around, which I think might be a shock to some player system, he'll be very familiar with.

Of course, they fly about a lot in MLS.

The various sort of humidity of certain venues, the altitude you might run into some places, etc.

All this sort of stuff that we freak out about ahead of the tournament, he'll have been a part of already.

And I also think, because of his age, you say, okay, he can't really press and he can't really do all the stuff that the tactics people freak out about a striker not being able to do, myself included sometimes.

But I don't think it'll be that kind of tournament.

I don't think anyone's going to press all summer.

No one's got the legs for that.

So it's going to be a tournament of moments.

And those moments, God, he still has them.

He has so many of them.

In the interest of fair and transparent and open podcasting, I feel like I need to look up where I had them.

Ah, I see.
