Is Charlotte MLS’s next expansion city? The writing is on the wall, but it’s not done yet. Susannah explains why Charlotte would be a great MLS city. Then Wiebe tries to spread the #CCLFever epidemic ahead of Monday’s draw in Mexico City: ideal matchups, best storylines and maximum Concacaf goodness.
Also in this show … Are Inter Miami after big-money River Plate midfielder Exequiel Palacios? What are the takeaways from the MLS player moves over the weekend? Emerson Hyndman to Atlanta, Khiry Shelton back to Sporting KC, Sacha Kljestan linked to the Galaxy and much more. Finally, Bobby sits down with MLS and USMNT legend Pablo Mastroeni to reflect on his time away from the game and some big moments in his career.

Would you like to see Charlotte be MLS’s next expansion city?
Arizona + New Orleans should get MLS teams, if we're expanding to two more!!!
Will the talent level be diluted with this much expansion?
Great job on the interview Bobby! I really enjoyed it.
It's always cute watching mls fans hope that an mls team will win the CCL lol
Liga MX will continue to dominate. This year is no different
Heart over analytics? How is this man a head coach lmfao he should be the kitman.
Hi from Charlotte
Can CHICAGO be moved to the western conference at some point?
Just sayin… anytime there's Susanne Collins. It's time for New York… New York….listenings in…
GUATEMALA!!!!
Guy in the maroon hat carries the show. Guy in the black cap is also pretty good 😄👍
YouTube commenters, where would you put each member of the ETR at the top in a hangout situation?
Here are mine:
Wiebe- I got three. Helping to move out. I think he would be focused and put the most honest hours in. He's a midwestern guy and that helps. I think it is slim pickings for this crew and moving out. Most would be complete disasters.
Baby playdates. He would be responsible, pay attention and wouldn't bring his kid over sick. Wouldn't talk too much or too little.
Dorm roommate. Again, it's about balance. He could chill in the dorm or go out. Wouldn't be too loud and wouldn't kick you out when he brought a girl over at late night (couldn't help myself, Wiebs).
Doyle: Dungeon master. I have never played D&D but I could see him throwing himself into it hard and making it legitimately fun. Good sense of humor, likes to make stories, busts chops and get drunker as the night wore on.
Collins: Game night. Enthusiastic and emotive. Low-key super competitive but wouldn't make things awkward because she has great interpersonal skills. Brings the goods for food and wine. Forgot to bring something? Collins has you covered, you are getting partial credit on my awesome spread. No worries.
Carr: Music festival. He knows all the bands coming through. "I know the guitarist. Good guy. Let's go backstage and check 'em out". There is a good chance he will disappear and you will never see him for the rest of the guy though.
Warshaw: Bookclub. He is thoughtful and takes unexpected angles. One minute he is coming up with a great point. The next it's like "what book did this guy read!?!". Then he closes by mixing it up with the host. He's a total wildcard and the only good thing about this boring-ass book club. This is his domain.
Davies: Clubbing. He is a relaxed alpha who can just cut through a crowd. He knows the perfect drink for the occasion. He is setting his friends up like King Wing. Stay in your lane or you are going to be taking a couple trips to the ATM. He can salsa? Yeah, of course he can salsa.
Gass: Road trip or foreign vacation. I want a guy with an engine to keep things exciting and push comfort zones. He loves finding the hidden gems. He is a bottomless pit for food so you always throwing down. He's social and makes friends easily so that helps open doors. I'm guessing he is clutch in a pinch which is absolutely necessary when things get sketchy. Greater than zero chance we end up in jail though *shrugs*. If I made a travel partner in a lab he would basically be Gass.
Wiebe, if you read any of this ridiculous post, how far off am I? Also, it must be tough coming up with content at this time of year, especially with CBA discussions so signings are slowed down.
Pablo always comes across as a thoughtful dude and is fun to listen to. Great interview
From New york, New York! Susanah one "business" trip more for you 30th city is going hope we reach 32 and Phoenix is finally (and deserved) involved
That late discussion on signings was important. That the league is learning to sign support players, not just stars, is what's needed for teams to make late runs in both CL and the MLS. It's an important maturation.
Would u want the mls In the future to be a league format like in other leagues or do u want the league to be a play of format always and not change it beacuse I think it will be much better for the mls to league table format beacuse it will show who the best team is beacuse this year Seattle Sounders FC won the whole thing but did not finish first I want to hear ur thoughts please
CLT… The Carolinas are youth and college soccer strong! Hope it translates to MLS!
