Welcome to Episode 138 of the NYCFC Nation Podcast. New York City FC headed to the west coast to play against the LA Galaxy and for those fans who stayed up saw two amazing goals scored by Jonathan Lewis and our MVP David Villa. On paper, with a score of 2-0, it would appear NYC controlled the match but that would be a lie. If it wasn't for Sean Johnson's amazing goalkeeping performance the score would have been different. Jordan Griffith joins the show to discuss the match plus we discuss the training sessions heading into Sunday's match. We analyse certain NYCFC player performances, look into the match against the New England Revolution and take your questions. Twitter questions provided by our Nation fans: Opinions on the Sean Johnson trade now that we're so far into the season? Also favorite save against LA. Defenders: The good, the bad and the ugly ... and the #NotSo Brillant. The most focused and troublesome backline combos. Who replaces Alex Ring in the line up against the Revs? He is gonna be hard to

Welcome to Episode 137 of the NYCFC Nation Podcast. New York is Blue and we all knew! What we didn't know was that David Villa had probably his best performance, scoring a hat trick, against the New York Red Bulls. Chris P and Chris M discuss his historic performance along with how other NYCFC players performed. We then discuss what transfers or transfer rumors are spreading before tomorrow's (Wednesday) deadline. Will NYC obtain a player or two? We wrap up the show previewing NYC's next match against the Los Angeles Galaxy. Is that match a trap game for New York City FC? Twitter questions provided by our Nation fans: Spain media is reporting Carlos Vela is coming to MLS what is the possibility NYCFC can go after his services? With the transfer window closing tomorrow, I'd say no moves for NYCFC seem likely, unless there is info I'm not privy to? 1 more day in the transfer window... are we going after anyone? Is Tommy Mac in the long term plans? to me he's too much of a local talent/fan favorite to be in a p

Welcome to Episode 136 of the NYCFC Nation Podcast. Not a great performance on Sunday against Toronto FC. Okay, horrible performance on Sunday against Toronto FC. How does New York City FC move on from that awful match? Chris M and Chris P recap the 4-0 loss NYC had while in BMP Stadium. Who do you blame for the loss? We then move into Sunday's Derby match against the New York Red Bulls and what we could expect to see from them. Twitter questions provided by our Nation fans: Why is Tommy still playing over Lewis? Is it time to finally admit Pirlo is too old and to fully drop him Vieira called out "lack of consistent performance" on Sunday. A) how much of that is on him? B) should he be praised or criticized? Is Khiry Shelton actually injured? Should NYCFC sign a 3rd DP that will fill seats in a stadium or one that will actually want to win a cup? Who is NYCFC targeting since Rodney Wallace is out Is there a walk away price for you as paying customers for a new stadium/PSL? Listen in and follow up with us on

Welcome to Episode 135 of the NYCFC Nation Podcast. The last time we recorded was a week ago when NYC was about to face two of the top teams in the Eastern Conference. In the first match up against a handicapped Toronto FC, NYC played poorly and ended tied 2-2 giving up a second goal during stoppage time. Then on Saturday, with Maxime Chanot not playing, Yangel Herrera given a double yellow by the 12th minute, David Villa and Frederic Brillant scored goals to take a 2-1 win against, at that time, the first place Chicago Fire Soccer Club. We wrap up the show with a preview of the next match up against Toronto FC and throughout the podcast we throw in many of our Nation questions.

Welcome to Episode 134 of the NYCFC Nation Podcast. Before we jump in NYCFC talk, we talk a little Game of Thrones (no spoilers) and who we would be if we were to be living in that world. After this we talk about how New York City FC plays at home twice this week. The first match up is on Wednesday against Toronto FC. Chris P and Chris M preview this match-up and discuss what formations and starters Patrick Vieira will use. We also debate on what Patrick has learned when he last time faced Toronto FC. Will Sean Johnson be back from his play-less tour with the Unites States Mens National Team? The second match up this week is on Saturday against Chicago Fire Soccer Club. None of us at The Nation, and probably other MLS analysts expected Chicago Fire to be in first place more than midway through the season. What does NYCFC have to do to grab another three points against Chicago? Towards the end of the podcast we go through league news, salaries for some players on NYCFC and we answer your twitter and subreddit

Welcome to Episode 133 of the NYCFC Nation Podcast. New York City FC traveled to Canada to face Vancouver Whitecaps FC and lost to a score of 3-2. Chris P and Chris M discuss this loss and dissect each goal. We go through questions as why was Alexander Ring the last man on defense in the first goal for Vancouver. Was Thomas McNamara's penalty a make up call? How did Andrea Pirlo perform and what is the status of Yangel Herrera. In the second segment we discuss Mehdi Ballouchy rejoining NYCFC as the U-15s Coach. NYCFC also announces a new ticket program called NYCFC Platform Pass. We all give our two cents on this new program. We end this show answering your questions off twitter.Both Roddy Wallace and Miguel Camargo performed well for their respective countries during the Gold Cup competition Listen in and follow up with us on twitter @NYCFCpodcast.

Welcome to Episode 132 of the NYCFC Nation Podcast. New York City FC defeated Minnesota United FC to a score of 3-1 this past Thursday. New York City now travels to play against the Vancouver Whitecaps FC on Wednesday July 5th. Chris P along with Jeff Weisinger join the podcast to discuss these two matches and we take your questions off Instagram and Twitter. Maxi Moralez was a full participant in training, does he start against Vancouver? Rodney Wallace is away on International duty and Ronald Matarrita is out for 3-4 months. Who will be replacing them on the starting roster? We discuss the drama over on the MLS subreddit regarding one "writers" view about NYCFC Staff and wrap up giving our 4 words or less on the Cosmos video where a NYCFC fan removed his t-shirt for a Cosmos Pele jersey.

Welcome to Episode 130 of the NYCFC Nation Podcast: It was an action packed week (last week) as New York City FC faced its cross town rival the New York Red Bulls for a US Open Cup match. New York City FC lost that match 0-1 and was once again kicked out in their first match of the US Open Cup. Later that week New York City FC faced Seattle Sounders FC on probably the wettest game of the year come out with three points winning by a score of 2-1. Chris P., Chris M and I discuss these two matches and the upcoming match on Sunday in New Jersey against the Red Bulls for our first regular season match against them. Above all we discuss how we build Ikea furniture, or at least how not to build Ikea furniture. We wrap up the show talking about the three New York City FC players who will be joining their respective countries during the Gold Cup, announce that James Sands is NYC's first homegrown player signing, debate on his intro song into Yankee stadium, provide an "update" on the NYCFC stadium in relation to David

Before we dig into that preview we are ecstatic to have Chris P. back with us on the podcast. Chris (for those who don't remember) took a road trip from New York all the way to California and he still found a way to update our Nation fans with news. We discuss the report that Boca Juniors is looking at our designated player Maxi Moralez. Should Maxi leave, what could New York City do with that empty roster spot or will he honor his 3 year contact with NYCFC? After, we preview NYC's game against the New York Red Bulls which is being played in New Jersey (interesting). We provide what we think will be the starting eleven. Does Patrick Vieria actually care about the US Open Cup? What players will the Red Bulls start? We discuss this and wrap up epi

Welcome to Episode 125 of the NYCFC Nation Podcast: This week, after the match against FC Dalllas, New York City FC played against Real Salt Lake. It was simply an atrocious game for NYC. New York City lost to a score of 2-1 with a lineup that scratched many fans heads. Even more so, Patrick Vieria also took the blame on the loss and mainly for his starting eleven yet this isn't the first time Patrick fools around with the lineup. After beating the dead horse on the loss we look into Orlando City SC match on Sunday. Yeah...we aren't optimistic with this match-up because NY has yet to defeat Orlando this season.

Photo Credit NYCFC.com[/caption] Welcome to Episode 124 of the NYCFC Nation Podcast: This week has New York City FC playing two matches in one week so Chris M and I record on our "off" day because our Nation fans deserve it! We recap NYC's recent match on Sunday against FC Dallas which ended 1-1. After we break down both goals we also bring up a couple of key talking points such as the performance of  NYCFC's Cult favorite Thomas McNamara. Did McNamara play well enough to deserve a second start or is he starting merely because of lack of options? What about Maxime Chanot's amazing performance that granted him the Nation Man of the Match and how he continues to impress on the field? Alexander Callens and his recent inconsistent form when handling the ball. What's also amazing is that Chris M somehow is able to bring up the movie The Mighty Ducks in relation of NYC's offense. We wrap

This week Chris M and I are joined by Nick Chavez as we recap New York City FC taking control over Atlanta United FC to a score of 3-1. We debate over who the Man of the Match was, who the biggest signing of the year has been and we preview our upcoming match against FC Dallas. How will the lineup look now that Yangel Herrera will be missing the next four matches? Is Patrick Vieira going to over think these upcoming matches? How many years will it take for NYCFC to win the MLS cup and will we ever see Thomas McNamara? We congratulate New York City Supporters Club in becoming officially recognized by NYCFC. Finally, we wrap up the show answering all our twitter/ facebook questions left by our Nation fans and vote for the best question of the show.

Chris M and I take over the NYCFC Nation podcast wishing Chris P all the best with his wedding in Poland while discussing the 3-2 victory over the Columbus Crew. We review the performances of Ben Sweat, Sean Okoli and Yangel Herrera who all started for the first time this season. We then speculate on the Jack Harrison two years from now and whether or not he would be worth DP money. As we move into previewing the upcoming match against Atlanta United FC on Sunday we call in Eric Quintana who he and his two other hosts run an Atlanta United podcast called Mouths of the South. Eric provides a huge perspective regarding all Atalanta United soccer, their tactics, their faults and how their supporter culture is. We wrap up the showing finishing up all the amazing twitter questions left by our Nation fans and vote for the best questions of the show.

Martin Bihl (@MartinBihl) joins us on this episode of the NYCFC Nation Podcast to explain (as best we can) what happened to New York City FC on Saturday at RFK Stadium against D.C. United. Was it the lineup, formation or the field conditions? One thing we can all agree on was the mood in the locker room after the match. Chris P and Martin discuss their views on the match, individual player performances and whether or not this game will force Patrick Vieria to make changes to the starting 11. We wrap up the episode peeking into NYC's next match on Friday against the Philadelphia Union and reminding everyone about the NYCFC Academy Match on April 22nd.
