Excellent women’s soccer coverage - I’ve been looking for a podcast like this for months! Keep up the WOSO commentary!

Episode 528 very disappointing. Dissolved into moon alignment with the stars. Weird. What’s this got to do with soccer? What’s happened to my favorite podcast?

Guy’s what are your thoughts on Gareth Southgate?

From 1 star to 2 stars bc Belz admitted to being a eurosnob. Once Greg stops shilling for mls I’ll revisit this rating.

Love the banter, analysis and overall vibe of the pod. Highly recommend.

Majority of what they say about women’s game is negative. Not just about players but about coaches etc. There’s little nuance. Appreciate criticism and feedback about women’s soccer, but there’s so much negativity I have stopped listening.

There were a lot of Panamanians, Honduras, El Salvador and other nationalities that do not support El Tri. In addition to dual citizens. Also, the crowd appreciates a good goal. Saludos

The Snarky US Soccer show never covered the USWNT until 2022, admittedly ignorant of the women’s game, perhaps reluctantly, and certainly unaccustomed to following winners. But a USWNT (4 x World Cup, 4x Olympic champs) on the rebuild perfectly suits their snarky take on the ugly game portrayed here.

The guys are shutting her down too much, too loudly. Generally love you guys but listen. For example, Crystal was bad this game.

My favorite podcast of any genre. Belz is an amazing interviewer and Greg an insightful analyst. The Monday reviews are completely hilarious, and the team is always looking for new angles and ways to keep things fresh. If you are interested in current and future US internationals then this is the gospel.

Vince talks about race a weird amount. While I even agree with the views, it’s just unnecessary and a bit awkward in a soccer podcast. Sadly, he’s the reason I cancelled my Patreon contribution. Greg Velasquez seems very knowledgeable. Belz is a solid interviewer! When it’s just those 2, it’s a 5 star podcast.

Scuffed is an extremely enjoyable podcast for those who like soccer and more specifically who follow US Soccer. The hosts do a great job breaking down games, scouting players, and producing truly enjoyable content. Highly recommend!

I don’t think you can find a group of people more interested in tearing players down, unless you’re a favorite of one of the hosts. Incredibly condescending, especially when speaking about the women’s players. I have tried and tried to listen but the negative attitude toward players because of what club team they play for or take the spot of one of their favorites is grating. They “grace” us by talking about the women once every two weeks but spend the entire time talking about the same three or four players, even when they aren’t on the field, or in some cases, haven’t touched a ball in 18 months. Production quality is extremely low and they sound like men who are recording in their mothers basement.

Listened to a dozen or more episodes. There appears to be a lack of experience on the Pod. I doubt any of the hosts have played soccer at a moderate level or higher. Playing or coaching brings a different level of understanding. I would be okay recommending this to casual fans or people who became fans later in life. But if you have played or coached at a high level, there is not much here for you. I would push those to Sam’s Army for a soccer bro take. Or I would recommend State of the Union for a more family oriented and polished POD. And ESPN FC has a lot of good content too. There is also biases that creep into the analysis. This further reduces the credibility of the Pod.

The Scuffed team has an extraordinary depth of knowledge and does excellent analysis. Must listen for US Soccer fans. That said, they really don’t seem to enjoy watching football, like the teams (less a few select players) and act like all the coaches are idiots. They also seem to feel that having to talk about the teams is a burden. Not much joy in it for them. A shame really. It is a very weird attitude to take when no one is forcing them to watch these teams or to make this podcast. I enjoy watching football, even when my team is not perfect, even when they cause me pain. I wish the Scuffed team felt the same way.

Belz, Greg, Watke and Vince are the best in the biz. Highly recommend!

I’ve been listening to the pod since 2019, Belz and Velazquez provide thorough, insightful commentary for the USMNT and USWNT. It’s my favorite US Soccer pod by a mile! Newer team additions Watke, Vince, and Tara are also wonderful and have great chemistry. The Scuffed discord is also a great community with lots of soccer discussions to be had every day. Join the Scuffed movement!

The Scuffed crew is both well informed and entertaining. Mainstream sports analysis has become more surface level, but Scuffed has not fallen in line. This is the best US Soccer-themed podcast by far.

If you want to dive deeper into your fandom of the US National Teams, this is the spot!!! They have a good balance in their coverage. Match recaps are a little more tactically curious and try to break down what happened and why. The Monday reviews and WoSo Wednesday shows are a little looser and try to have fun while reviewing what’s going on with the NT players at their clubs. Just a great group of people talking about the men and women who wear the Stars and Stripes!

The shows a much more tactically-focused and analytical than other USMNT/USWNT adjacent pods, while simultaneously not taking themselves too seriously and providing plenty of entertainment. Plus quantity to go with the quality during major tournaments. Pretty incredible feat to be all of those things at once.

Great pod. Knowledgeable hosts with good perspective that are consistently entertaining and insightful. Great interviews and content outside the games. Must-listen for US soccer fans.

I’m just really happy to find something that can be fun and a little silly and also have good thoughtful takes on the nwsl and uswnt, scuffed threads that line perfectly and I look forward to woso Wednesday releases :)

There’s not a better podcast on American soccer and I’ve tried a bunch of them. All of the hosts are informative and have great chemistry, which makes it a joy to listen even (especially!) when the on field results are frustrating. I particularly appreciate the player and team analysis of performance and tactics, not just relying on narratives or passions, but actually describing the good and bad of what goes on the field. Not to mention the interviews with players and other important figures, and the community around Scuffed is a blast too. Couldn’t recommend it more!

This is the best US Soccer podcast. Thoughtful. Honest analysis and a fantastic sense of humor and community. I love Scuffed!

This is my favorite soccer podcast. Love the commentary that Adam and Greg bring to the US Soccer landscape, and the Monday Review crew bring so much to the podcast as well. Keep these guys in your rotation.

Best usmnt coverage. Best uswnt coverage. Best podcast. Belz got the best voice in the business.

They take the fun seriously and have fun with the serious stuff. Belz has investigative-reporter instincts, Watke’s absurdist good humor, Vince’s emotional intelligence, Tara’s encyclopedic knowledge. A joy to listen to.

No one, and I mean NO ONE, provides the amount of measured depth and insight into the beautiful game liked Scuffed does. Even more impressive to do so in a grassroots way. Big ups to everyone who puts in the work to make Scuffed a must-listen!

Wanted to give a quick shout out to the Monday Reviews for patrons, such a great weekly recap and there are usually longer versions of interviews which can include questions submitted by listeners. Love the Scuffed Crew!

The best independent US soccer analysis I can find in podcast form. Over time they’ve added more content and cohosts so there’s a little something something for all types of national team fans. If you’re into independent US soccer coverage , this is the pod for you.

Vince has finally admitted his anti-Coffey agenda was a sham, so I have amended my review from negative ten to five stars

… and it’s not even close. Greg, Belz, Vince, Tara, and Watke give you actually good sports punditry (really! It exists!) while also being just hella funny and likable.

great chemistry, great vibes, provocative without being needlessly contrarian analysis. the gold standard.

Best US soccer podcast out there.

This pod is so good. I mean just top top top notch

This jabronis don’t know ball. Listening to them is like nails on a chalk board. They’re a couple of animals that don’t deserve your attention.

love the show fellas! just a thought. you can COMPLETELY stop using “man city zone” for a second cutback at the byline. love you all!! :) keep up the great work!

I never fail to enjoy the podcast. Insights are timely and on point. Great insight.

Between the recaps and WOSO Weds eps, I’ve really been enjoying learning more about women’s soccer. Thanks!! Save corncob TV!!!

I unfollowed the show, not super interested in hearing people trash on Morgan just because it’s trendy. Some of the episodes are worth listening to (the actual analysis of games). But the woso Wednesday hosts often devolve into parroting what’s popular to say on Twitter without providing any substantive analysis or justification for their opinions. (Leaving a 5 star rating because I can’t submit a review without rating the show. Half of the show is worthwhile, and there are only so many podcasts that discuss American women’s soccer.)

Thoughtful insight, witty comedy and honest discussion and banter about our squads. Indispensable for an ultra and welcoming for someone recently infected with love for the beautiful game.

The most intelligent, engaging, humorous USMNT podcast out there. Also Watke brings the real, real insights you won’t find anywhere else.

Love this podcast overall. But Vince is so cringe. Constantly pulling things back to race out of nowhere. Like a weird amount. And (as he points out himself a lot) doesn’t seem to have any background of playing or even watching soccer. What is he adding to the podcast?

Love you guys! Love what you do, your content and your brand. Hope you continue, don’t stop! Let’s go! WC! USA!!

Not only my favorite USMNT podcast, but my favorite soccer podcast. Actually, my favorite podcast…period. The Monday reviews are amazing and totally worth the Patreon membership. Keep it up fellas!

It’s so difficult to find podcasts that dive deep into plays for the WOMENS game. I’ll give 6 stars once they start covering the NWSL :)

Adam & Greg were quick to call for a youth revolution back in 2017/2018 and boy were they prophetic. They provide the very best US National Team coverage, from youth to senior men/women. Analysis is deep and yet they don’t take themselves too seriously. Everyone involved at Scuffed HQ is top shelf.

Bels and Greg are an absolute must listen for all USMNT thoughts, recaps and updates. They helped me deep dive back into the sport back in 2020 and I’ve been hooked since. Keep up the good work fellas, you’ve made me a proud Patron.

Belz and Velasquez are my go-to source for in-depth coverage of US pro soccer. They get granular, discussing the subtext behind the coaches' decisions and the players' performances. They get analytical, breaking down the play-by-play of entire games with a commentary that's clear and easy to follow. And they take interesting diversions into such topics as Belz's Tweeting habits. They do all this, while keeping the pace lively, so I can get in an episode in the span of a gym workout. I like how both guys take strong stances, yet neither is afraid to be wrong. When faced with a differing opinion, Belz and Velasquez aren't afraid to second-guess their own reads of a game, which makes them a solid team. It's always a good time when they have a solid guest, like Vince, on the show. I'm really looking forward to their coverage of the upcoming friendly match between the USMNT and Japan's Samura Blue. Can't wait!

This podcasts provides some of the best and most accurate soccer commentary I have heard. The hosts’ and guests are knowledgeable and the conversation is stimulating for the most avid enthusiasts.
