FC Dallas comes to Seattle in the middle of a three-game road trip that seemingly puts them at a significant disadvantage, coming a few days after they went to New York and played 120 minutes a few days before they head to FC Cincinnati. To make matters worse, they’re also missing star midfielder Luciano Acosta.

It all sets up quite nicely for the Sounders in general and Jesús Ferreira in particular. Jeremiah and Niko both believe the striker is due for a big game.

In the second half of the show, Jeremiah and Niko discuss a newsy week in the Club World Cup that saw players expressing frustration over the bonus structure and FIFA reacting to slow ticket sales by reducing prices for many games.

Nos Audietis: There are no excuses against FC Dallas

It’s a jam-packed pod as we take stock of the Seattle Sounders’ big road trip, which saw them post a 1-1-1 record across matches in Houston, LAFC, and Portland. Was the debacle at LAFC a cause for concern? Is a 1-1 draw at Portland an acceptable result? We discuss that and more in a double-game review. Later on, we dive into our Agenda Check and give our Winners and Losers from Matchday 14 in MLS.

Lobbing Scorchers: The Most INSANE Seattle Sounders Rivalry Week

Coming off a three-game road trip in which the Sounders got four points, Jeremiah and Aaron express mostly satisfaction with the overall play even if they weren’t entirely happy with the results. But one player who is harder to figure out is Jesús Ferreira, who seems to be doing a lot of things right but not performing how we thought we would. Jeremiah and Aaron try to project how he might do the rest of the year.
