In Episode 230 of the Third Sub Podcast, Alexandre Gangue-Ruzic and Samuel Rowan dive into the latest news out of the Vancouver Whitecaps, Vancouver FC, Pacific FC and more.
Welcome back to another episode of the Third Sub Podcast!
In this episode, Alex and Sam are back as usual, this time to chat about all things Vancouver Whitecaps, Vancouver FC, Pacific, and more.
To begin, they dive into the latest out of the Whitecaps, who have had a quiet few weeks after Vanni Sartini’s departure. As a result, Alex and Sam take the time to look back at their pre-season predictions, seeing how the Whitecaps compared to those prognostics, and what that has taught them about their 2025 outlook.
After that, they dive into the 2024 season that was for both BC Canadian Premier League teams, Vancouver FC and Pacific FC.
First, they start with Vancouver, who despite a massive offseason, was unable to take the big step they were hoping to make in 2024. Now, that’s put them in a tough spot heading into 2025, where they’ll start to feel the pressure as they enter their third year as a club.
Meanwhile, with Pacific, despite making the playoffs, the pressure is on there, too, as they look to rebuild on the fly after losing some more key pieces. After making the playoffs in five straight seasons, they face a big uphill battle to repeat that feat for a sixth straight year in 2025, with a big roster build ahead of them.
