The Total Soccer Show: Usmnt, Mls, Epl, Champions League And More ...

On this week's Big Thing episode, we revisit an old friend: Jurgen Klinsmann. With his South Korea side now eliminated from the 2023 Asian Cup, we look back on the team's performance at the tournament itself, how things have progressed (or not progressed) with Klinsmann in charge, and what's likely to happen next as the country's Golden Generation misses a chance for silverware. Were South Korea fortunate to even make it as far as the semi-finals? Were there signs of disgruntlement with Klinsmann before the tournament? How similar are the current complaints against Klinsmann to those when he was in charge of the USMNT? Oh, and also, who will win the Asian Cup final this weekend? Those questions and more, answered for you... while Taylor tries not to go off on a rant on multiple occasions.---Today's show is brought to you by...Philo!
