For KC glory is back with the 69th episode of the series!
Sporting Kansas City there’s a lot going on this week, considering real football is still almost a month away. One topic that will break Sheena’s heart is if Kellyn Acosta, rumor has it he will join KC, is considered to replace Rémi Walter in the long term. He mainly plays in the same position and Rémi is at the end of his contract after the 2024 season. We look at Acosta’s cost and fit at Sporting KC.
We also briefly discuss Memo Rodriguez on trialthe 3-3 Sporting KC/Charlotte FC draw and all of Peter Vermes’ quotes from the post-match presser. Plus, our take on the leaked Sporting KC secondary kit, the other MLS kits leaked and Sheena does her first “bio” of 2024, covering Marinos Tzionis. Who else would you like to see a mini bio on?

THE KC current there’s a lot going on too. We review the publication scheduleall signatures (Bia Zanaratto, Desiree Scott and Bayley Feist), trialists and departures (Cassie Miller, Mimmi Larsson). And I have a radical idea that the NWSL should adopt: get rid of trades.
In the Digital Crawl, we cover the following topics:
- Felipe Gutiérrez retires
- Chance Myers is the Technical Director in Nashville
- PRO could strike
- Hector Herrera out for SKC opener
- This strange saga Jesus Ferreira/FC Dallas/Russia
- Rylan Childers signs for Denmark
- And the Inter Miami players are dropping like flies
Here’s a quick overview of the topics (and approximate start times):
- What do we think of Kellyn Acosta on SKC? – 5:41 p.m.
- Memo Rodriguez on trial with Sporting – 18:53
- Pre-season results and PV quotes – 22:28
- Thoughts on the MLS kit leak – 38:58
- Sheena does a bio of Marinos Tzionis – 47:51
- Current KC schedule – 52:26
- Lots of moves from KC’s current roster – 1:00:18
- Digital Exploration – 1:11:23
This is completely unrelated, but our Instagram is full of absurdity lately. You should follow us. Here’s a post of 10 kit concepts based on Sheena’s silly idea of ”sunflowers and barbecue” on a jersey.
