The Overlap: Talking Atlanta United roster and tactics ahead of the MLS restart

The Dirty South Soccer Podcast Network has a new recurring podcast called The Overlap featuring one part Mouths of the South (Josh Bagriansky) and one part Five Stripe Final (Joe Patrick). Together, they’ll focus on the tactical aspect of the game throughout the year, and try to project how the play seen in prior matches will project to the team’s upcoming game(s). Have a listen here:

In this episode — because we haven’t been able to see even a glimpse of the team under a new manager — there’s a lot of speculating as it relates to individual players, grouping in midfield, attack and defense, and we offer our best predictions for a starting XI we might see Saturday.
