Christian Polanco and Matt Doyle break down MLS Decision Day as the regular season comes to a close. Lionel Messi finishes the season on a historic run, but is it enough for Inter Miami to win MLS Cup? Can the Philadelphia Union replicate their regular season success in the postseason? And what has gone so terribly wrong for D.C. United?

Next, Christian and Matt welcome World Cup winner and USWNT legend Julie Foudy. Julie breaks down the future of the NWSL and women’s soccer, including what needs to change if the league wants to keep its top talent. They also discuss Emma Hayes’ tenure so far with the USWNT and look back at Julie’s iconic USWNT class, which helped lay the foundation for the national team’s long-term success.

Later, the boys react to Nottingham Forest sacking Ange Postecoglou and debate whether Sean Dyche is the right man to stabilize the club.
