The MLS Is Back Tournament kicked off last Wednesday, so Musa and Ryan discuss the conditions surrounding its questionable return as well as Orlando’s beating Inter Miami in the opener and how the circumstances differ from the NWSL Challenge Cup (03.48). They take a question on how the NWSL compares to leagues in Europe, and explore whether the next NWSL CBA may allow USWNT players to play in Europe (10:40). They recap the wild Milan vs. Juventus game, Ralf Rangnick taking over for Stefano Pioli next season (15:11), whether Kai Havertz would fit at Chelsea as a rumored move to London gains steam (23:05), how the lack of a crowd affects field-player traits (30:05), and what footballing minutiae they love, including player and managerial sartorial choices (34:37).
