Episode 78 – CanWNT outlook, labour updates, Mitrovic to Red Star and more

Northern Fútbol Podcast

Peter, Thomas and Alex are back together to recap Canada's loss to the U.S. at the W Championship, whether they've shown enough growth to make an impact at the World Cup and whether some tactical changes could help the team going forward.

They also give their thoughts on everything that's happened regarding the labour dispute, from the CSA's reply to Rick Westhead's report, to the players' response, the men's national team unionization and Earl Cochrane being named as permanent General Secretary.

Finally, they dissect some Canadians abroad who've already begun their seasons and examine some transfers, including Stefan Mitrovic moving to Red Star Belgrade. Plus, analysis on Samuel Piette and Alistair Johnston vs. Toronto FC, what Federico Bernardeschi can bring to TFC, the Vancouver Whitecaps' strong performance in Portland, CPL questions and more!
