  • Ekitike to Liverpool, Gyokeres Joins Arsenal & Rashford’s Barcelona Move | It’s Called Soccer EP 42
    This week on the Summer Series, Dax McCarty and Taylor Twellman go deep on the biggest transfer headlines across Europe — and Dax reveals his surprise Messi jersey moment. Liverpool’s summer strategy is under the spotlight, with Dax showing love for boss Arne Slot and making a bold comparison between new signing Hugo Ekitike and Karim Benzema. Taylor agrees — and predicts Ekitike could be a 20+ goal striker at Anfield. At Arsenal, Dax calls Viktor Gyökeres the best #9 the club has had since Robin van Persie, claiming they would’ve won the Premier League last season with him up front. Plus, the guys debate whether Arteta must win silverware this year to justify the project. Manchester United’s window raises bigger questions. While Mbeumo and Cunha have arrived, Dax and Taylor agree the club still lacks a true #9 — and dive into the deeper cultural issues holding United back. Meanwhile, Rashford to Barcelona? Dax is all-in, and Taylor thinks the move could unlock another 20-goal season. In Spain, Johnny Cardoso’s move to Atlético Madrid could be a boost. Dax likes the deal, but questions if he’ll get minutes under Simeone — and what that means for the USMNT. Taylor breaks down why the MLS All-Star Game still matters, tracing its evolution from 2002 to now, including big-name clashes with Arsenal and beyond. Learn more about your ad choices.

Over at the Club World Cup, the Brazilian sides impressed — and PSG finally delivered on the biggest stage. Dax breaks down the gap between Real Madrid and PSG, and explains why Mbappé and Vini’s defensive effort (or lack thereof) still raises questions.
