From Last Word on Soccer, by Joe Hojnacki and Matt Pollard

The MLS Conference Finals are upon us, so to help with that, Joe Hojnacki and Matt Pollard bring in Dave Clark from Sounder at Heart to discuss Seattle Sounders and their upcoming Western Conference Final against Colorado Rapids. In the second segment, Waking the Red’s Charlie Clarke joins Matt to talk about Toronto FC and how they might fair against Montreal Impact in the Eastern Conference Final.

In the roundtable, Joe and Matt talk about Saint Louis FC gaining conditional approval as an MLS expansion team. A stadium deal is all that stands in the way. Then they banter about Jurgen Klinsmann’s job status and where the United States Men’s National Team sits in World Cup Qualifying after their rough start against Mexico and Costa Rica.
