In this episode, we discuss the pros and cons of Messi’s magical run in Major League Soccer, as well as catching listeners up on where we’ve been. That’s just the start of the conversation as we also chat about the wonders of British motorway service stations, whether the Messi effect has been able to impact mainstream media, what the Messi effect is like in the United Kingdom, what the biggest benefit is of all after Messi’s arrival in the United States of America.
Other tidbits discussed are NBC’s new Premier League set, what their coverage is lacking, whether Super Clubs in MLS are a good thing or not, your thoughts on ESPN’s coverage of soccer, criticism for ESPN’s inability to take advantage of a golden opportunity, and what we’ve enjoyed about this Premier League season so far.
