Hear Coach Bobby's Ideal Carpool Lineup.. (BTB, S2E18)

Behind the Beard, Season 2, Episode 17!
This episode covers two key matches: last weekend's game against Pacific and the upcoming clash with Cavalry FC on Saturday. Coach Bobby delves into how the team selects a captain for each match, the importance of home-field advantage, and the strategy behind optimizing the eight-day gap between their last match and the upcoming game against Cavalry. They also have some fun discussing the ideal carpool situation among the team.

Key Takeaways:

• Cisse is the one advocating for bonuses among the team after a win.
• Coach Bobby, despite not being a fan of days off, acknowledged that the recent break was much needed.
• Despite their championship season, Forge only secured four home wins in 2023. Coach Bobby emphasized that it was a major focus during pre-season to ensure every player was committed to improving that record.
• It was crucial to bring a different level of energy against Pacific, largely driven by Matteo’s first professional start and Amadou’s impact off the bench.
• Coach Bobby confirmed that Seba Castello has been cleared to play after two long seasons out with injury.
• Cavalry has been gaining momentum recently, sitting just four points from the top of the table. Coach Bobby noted that Forge will need to be mindful of Cavalry's set-piece opportunities.
