Champions League(s) review! Man City & Real Madrid roll on, Toronto & Philadelphia stay strong! Apr 15, 2021

Show notes

Ryan, Taylor and Joe return with analysis on two varieties of Champions League: UEFA and CONCACAF!

- Liverpool vs. Real Madrid: Los Blancos took advantage of the Reds’ lack of ‘electricity’ and bolted their way into the semifinals—despite missing several first-choice names.

- Borussia Dortmund vs. Man City: Pep is back in the semis! We look at how City kept Haaland at bay, and how they adapted their system to cope with Dortmund’s threat.

- Toronto vs. Leon: The Canucks advanced to the CCL quarterfinals with a professional job against Leon, where Michael Bradley did Michael Bradley things!

- Philadelphia Union vs. Saprissa: The Union set up a quarterfinal with Atlanta thanks to a barnstorming second half against their Costa Rican opponents.

Weekend Review! Madrid win in the rain, Leeds make City gains & Spurs feel more pain Apr 12, 2021

Show notes

Ryan, Taylor and Graham are here to cast an eye over the biggest matches of the weekend!

- Real Madrid vs. Barcelona: Los Blancos triumphed in the rain in a highly entertaining Clasico, but how much does Zinedine Zidane ride his luck?

- Tottenham vs. Man Utd: Jose Mourinho’s days in London appear numbered after Spurs dropped points from a winning position once again. But full credit is due to the visitors for a rousing second half.

- Man City vs. Leeds: Marcelo Bielsa finally earned a victory over Pep Guardiola, as 10-man Leeds made the most of their two shots on goal!

- West Ham vs. Leicester: Another match day, another West Ham performance in which they go three up and nearly throw it away. We ask: what is a David Moyes?

- Plus! Taylor and Graham pick their best XIs of the weekend!

Show notes

On this episode of Allocation Disorder, Paul and Sam dive into Inter Miami’s strange Designated Player situation, talk through various market inefficiencies within MLS, and highlight a pair of big signings in LA and Atlanta. Then, towards the end of the show, they touch on CCL. In case you’re wondering, Paul is still squarely aboard the Portland Timbers’ CCL train - he did stop just short of saying "choo, choo", sadly. Maybe next week.
