Jason and Cory sit down with former Derby County midfielder John Harkes about his career in football. We talk about his time at Derby and being an "experienced" player even though he was still young. How did the move to Derby come about? We look back to his time at Sheffield Wednesday, including winning the FA Cup. We talk about the his move to DC United ahead of the inaugural MLS season and the changes he has seen during his time in the league. We also talk about being a trend setter in American soccer and playing for his country at a World Cup (what is that like?)! We talk about the development of American soccer cumulating in his current role as sporting director and head coach of the Greenville Triumph. Also, what is Coach Harkes like? How has COVID-19 affected his ability to coach and work with his players? We also talk about balancing being a dad versus a coach to a professional player (his son Ian Harkes at Dundee United)!
