Episode 568 – The AFTN Soccer Show (A Whitecaps Midseason Special with special guest Axel Schuster)
We’re back with another packed show of Vancouver Whitecaps chat.
The ‘Caps are at the halfway point of the MLS season, sitting two points above the playoff line and playing a more easy on the eye brand of football than last season. They’ve scored more goals, conceded less, but they need to be more clinical in front of goal and still feel a few pieces away from being real playoff contenders. We’re joined by AFTN writer Felipe Vallejo to discuss the ‘Caps first half of the season and what could lie in store in the second.
Carrying on the discussion, our feature interview this episode is with Whitecaps Sporting Director Axel Schuster, as we discuss the season so far both on and off the pitch, strengthening the squad in the summer, contracts, scouting new markets, Messi, and more.
