YES, WE ARE BACK. Not because of a 2-2 draw with Chicago, but because the prodigal Son Heung-min has come home (which also, is not Chicago). Darren and Vince analyze the highs and lows of the match, and look ahead to what looks like a very Sonny future. Can we make a beeline to The Cup? Should Son be our Captain post haste? Will we get a 3rd DP? Good art asks more questions than it answers.Join our Patreon and help us keep making this show.Merch and more at HappyFootSadFootPod.comYouTube: @happyfootsadfoot Twitter: @HaFoSaFoInstagram: @happyfootsadfootTikTok: @happyfootsadfoot Hosted on Acast.
