In a bit of a departure from the normal soccer talk Jeremiah and Aaron take a minute to discuss what a surreal couple of weeks it has been for Seattle sports. In particular with the Mariners being 2 wins from a possible World Series berth for the first time you'll have to forgive us for taking a minute to soak it all in. Diving back into the actual soccer show the guys review the Sounders home win against Real Salt Lake and the importance of that win. We wrap it all up in what was almost a real-time reaction to the breakout performance the Sounders' Cristian Roldan had for the USMNT against Australia.

With several key players on International duty and several more injured the Sounders are missing as many as 11 players for their match against Real Salt Lake. In this episode of What We Learned This Week Jeremiah, Niko, and Tim talk about what players could be called up from Tacoma Defiance to fill the roster and speculate on what a possible starting lineup will look like against RSL. Will we see chaos or is this is a good opportunity for some younger players?

The Seattle Sounders are just two points ahead of the Portland Timbers and haven't beaten their biggest rivals at home in the regular season since 2017. Those are pretty good reasons to win. But Jeremiah and Niko argue that the reason this game is so important has less to do with statistics and more to do with vibes. The Sounders need this game just to get things moving in a positive direction again.

The top candidate appears to be Snyder Brunell, who has played quite well since joining the first team this summer. Jeremiah and Niko discuss what Sounders fans can expect from the 18-year-old, weigh in on the other position battles and give an update on potential European interest in Vargas.

The Seattle Sounders have suffered their first two-game losing streak since the Club World Cup and haven't won in three. That's obviously bad news, but there's plenty of reason to think this slump is temporary. The underlying numbers still like the Sounders and now they've got some home games.

The Seattle Sounders appear to have a bit of a goalkeeper controversy. It's not that Stefan Frei has played poorly as much as it is he's failed to firmly take hold of the spot. Sounders head coach Brian Schmetzer effectively confirmed the tenuous nature of the battle between Frei and backup Andrew Thomas on Friday. Jeremiah, Niko and Tim discuss that as well as the brewing position battle in the attack as Pedro de la Vega, Albert Rusnák and Jordan Morris all return to the fold.

The Seattle Sounders lost 3-1 to Inter Miami, a game they played on two days' rest and required a cross-country road trip. The result was pretty predictable, if we're being honest. But what Jeremiah and Aaron point out is the degree to which it's a problem is mostly a result of dropping points on Saturday. That sets up a final five-game stretch in which the Sounders have virtually no margin for error if they want to secure home-field advantage through the first round of the playoffs.

Cristian Roldan has been mostly an afterthought when it comes to the United States national team, even when he was one of the final players to make the 2022 World Cup roster. But after being a late addition to the most recent camp and helping the USA beat Japan 2-0, it looks like he might be solidifying his spot. Jeremiah and Charlie Boehm discuss Roldan's place in the USMNT and more broadly what the situation looks like about 10 months from the 20w6 World Cup.
