    Episode 201 - Messi Can't Win The World Cup Without This Player + The France Weakness Morocco Can Exploit
    Jul 8 2026
    Argentina survived Egypt, Switzerland ground past Colombia, and the World Cup quarterfinal bracket is set. Ted and Hayden Van Brewer break down all four matchups, plus two transfers to know before the weekend. They dig into Argentina's missing piece since Ángel Di María left the picture, and why Giuliano Simeone might be the answer against Switzerland. England vs Norway comes down to wingers versus fullbacks, with Alexander Nusa singled out as the player who needs to step up. On the other side of the draw, they explain why Spain should be favourites against Belgium despite lacking their usual cutting edge, and why Morocco's patient possession style makes them a genuinely dangerous matchup for France. Then it's transfers: Jed Spence's rumoured move to Everton, Newcastle's teenage Ajax midfielder Steur, and why PSG might be ready to sell 18-year-old Ibrahim Mbaye.
