The whole TSS gang is here to answer your questions!
1) What are the chances we see Mauricio Pochettino or Erik Ten Hag in MLS as their next job?
2) Would MLS work as a split apertura/clausura season?
3) How did managers of the best teams in history get the best out of their players?
4) How far down the Premier League table do you have to go to stop seeing players that would be impactful for MLS teams?
5) Why don’t the final set of Serie A matches all start at the same time?
6) Have any soccer terms entered the lexicon?

Editor's note: Graham's audio is slightly jumpy in a few places. Please accept our apologies and blame Scotland 🙏
Mauricio Pochettino led Chelsea to a (relatively) strong Premier League finish, with European qualification. Despite this upturn, the Argentine was given his marching orders this week. Taylor, Graham and Ryan are here to discuss the situation at Stamford Bridge - and what comes next.
