    The Columbus Crew fall 1-0 at home to Nashville, and the bigger conversation can’t be avoided anymore. Four games into the MLS season, the Crew are still searching for a win. This episode is not just a match recap. It is a deep dive into what is going wrong, how the current Designated Players are performing, and why the attack and overall identity feel disconnected.

  • S2 Ep14: Columbus Crew vs Nashville SC Preview
    Mar 12 2026

    The Crew plays Nashville SC this weekend! We break down their roster, what we need to do to get a result, and give our score predictions! We also dive deep into the lifetime bans handed down to Yaw Yeboah and Derrick Jones for betting on MLS matches and discuss the gravity of the situation. On a much brighter note, André Gomes and Nariman Akhundzada have officially joined the group for training this week. Their arrival provides a much needed boost to the team, especially following the departure of Ibrahim Aliyu in his trade to the Houston Dynamo.

    We also take a moment to look at the expanding soccer landscape in Ohio as the new MLS NEXT Pro club in Cleveland begins to take shape in the form of Forest City Cleveland. It is a packed show covering everything from the match preview, to off field issues, to the future of the professional game in the North Ohio.

  • S2 Ep10: Columbus Crew vs Sporting Kansas City Preview | Can the Crew Expose SKC’s Thin Roster?
    Feb 26 2026

    In this episode, we preview the Columbus Crew’s upcoming matchup against Sporting Kansas City and break down what might be one of the strangest roster builds in MLS right now. SKC currently sits with just 22 players on the roster, including FOUR goalkeepers, and serious questions about depth across the field. We’ll be honest… this is a squad we don’t know a ton about because of how unfamiliar and newly constructed it is. But that might actually say a lot heading into this match.We talk about:- How the Crew can exploit Kansas City’s lack of depth- Where SKC could be vulnerable- Who needs to step up for Columbus- Whether this is a game the Crew have to dominate to be legit contendersIf Columbus wants to set the tone early, this feels like an opportunity to expose a roster that may not be built to compete over 90 minutes. Let us know your score predictions and what you’re expecting from this one.
