In Episode 234 of the Third Sub Podcast, Alexandre Gangue-Ruzic and Samuel Rowan dive into the latest out of the Vancouver Whitecaps as the start of their season approaches here.
Welcome back to another episode of the Third Sub Podcast!
In this episode, Alex and Sam are back, as usual, this time to dive into all things Vancouver Whitecaps in a jam-packed show.
To begin, they dive into the latest out of the Whitecaps, who have now completed three preseason games (as of recording), including two free matches on the team’s YouTube channel. Having watched those 180 minutes of action, Alex and Sam dive into what they learned from them, showing how the team is faring in their first minutes under new head coach Jesper Sørensen.
After that, they dive into the news that a new signing is on the way, as the Whitecaps look close to bringing in American forward Emmanuel Sabbi, per reports this week.
Is he what the club needs at this moment? They dive into why he could be a good replacement for Fafá Picault, with an upside for more depending on how he fits into his new team’s system.
Lastly, they take a look at what other incomings could be on the way after the arrival of Jayden Nelson and Sabbi, as the Whitecaps look to fill the last few holes in their roster, with none bigger than the one left behind by the departure of DP Stuart Armstrong.
But can they even replace Armstrong before they kick off the MLS season? They look at how realistic that could be for a team who has done their best business in the summer, leaving them in an awkward position for a team looking to get off to a strong start to the season.
