An International Football Scout on The World of Lord Russell PodCast Talk Show, with Bruno Costa, is a truely exciting Show.

What huge experience Bruno Costa has had in the Brazilian Serie A with top clubs as Fluminense and Figueirense, plus of course the biggest rivalry in Brazilian football being the so called 'Fla-Flu' derby between Flamengo and Fluminense. More about this on the show.

Two spells with the Brazil Football Confederation as Head Scout for the Brazilian men's youth national teams and as scout for the Brazilian Men's national team.

Not forgetting Bruno's scouting and recuitment work for the 2016 Brazilian Olympic Squad, who went on to win Brazil's first Olympic gold medal at the games.

Working in the USA too, at NASL's Fort Launderdale Strikers and San Jose Earthquakes in the MLS.

I'm looking forward to seeing you all on the inside.

The Journeymen debate who has the best rivalry in the league right now, Dax breaks down Nashville’s goal v. DC United, and why Gargs & Gordo think it’s ok to celebrate goals against former teams. Hint, the price tag is two kegs to the fans of your new team. 

It was bound to happen sometime. LAFC suffers its first loss of the 2023 MLS campaign, falling to San Jose at Levi's Stadium, 2-1, behind a brace from Cristian Espinoza. Hear all about it on Episode 247.

With Filly (and Panda) in the stands, LAFC traveled up to Santa Clara, CA to the home of Brock Purdy and the San Francisco 49ers to face the San Jose Earthquakes. LAFC was behind the eight-ball early, as an 8' goal from Espinoza gave the home crowd something to froth over. LAFC would respond behind, who else, Denis Bouanga, who pounced on a rebound to slot his 8th of the year past the San Jose keeper. 

In what was a relatively tame effort from San Jose, a moment was all they needed, and they found it in the 81'. Denil Maldonado committed a clear foul on a streaking Jeremy Ebobisse in the box, gifting a PK to Espinoza and the lead to San Jose. LAFC couldn't find an equalizer, and just like that, the unbeaten run to start the year was over. LAFC falls, 2-1. 

Also on this episode, Filly is staying in the Cabin in the Woods, Scarf bemoans the coverage on Apple TV, and a player on San Jose does his best Christian Ramirez impression. Enjoy Episode 247!

After a protracted discussion of California-grown produce, including young Mike’s avocado-stealing delinquency, Brandi talks about falling in love with soccer during an era when girls rarely played--and chasing Chad around Spartan Stadium during San Jose Earthquakes games, even as he made his way to the opposing team’s bench. Brandi addresses the importance of being driven by passion, rather than specific goals, in her athletic upbringing, and Mike segues from a discussion about juggling to a story about Natalie’s early driving atrocities. There are tales of Chad’s epic behavior during Big Game weekends past, including his taunting of Stanford-graduate Julie Foudy (while impersonating a Scottish football announcer) after a Cal victory, and of an infamous celebrity photo swap at Gibson’s steakhouse in Chicago. Oh, and Mike shares his Super Bowl XLV concussion story, ending with a classic line from Hall of Famer Michael Strahan.
