    PawedCast No. 463: Off-Season News and Friendly Rewinds
    Feb 11 2025
    Orlando City finally started signing some players over the past few weeks since our last show — recently, anyway — and between that and a few preseason friendlies open to fans, we have some things to talk about. We discuss Thomas Williams' new contract and the signings of Marco Pasalic and Eduard Atuesta and what they mean for the team. We also break down what Atuesta's arrival means in terms of Orlando City's midfield and the prospects of Wilder Cartagena playing before the end of the 2025 season. The mailbagbox is fixated once again on Apple TV+ shows and which ones we recommend. The short answer is that we recommend all the ones we've seen so far, but you can find some titles in this episode. We also got asked about some things that are a bit out of date now, but did that stop us from answering? Of course not. Remember, if there’s anything — and we do mean anything — you want us to address on the show, just ask us by tweeting it to us at @TheManeLand with the hashtag #AskTMLPC, or hitting us up on Bluesky Social with that same hashtag. Finally, we broke down Orlando City's lack of scoring despite some strong play in the home friendlies against Atletico Mineiro and CF Montreal. With a little more time, Pasalic may be able to provide some offense, but the Lions also need Ramiro Enrique and Luis Muriel on the pitch. Be sure to rate and review our show wherever you get your podcasts. Remember, we'll read any five-star reviews we get on Apple Podcasts on the next show. Here’s how No. 463 went down: 0:15 – Since our last show, the Lions released their preseason schedule and made a few signings. 28:14 - It's a robust mailbagbox after three weeks off. 53:02 – The two open preseason friendlies each featured a serious-looking injury and saw the Lions look good doing everything except scoring goals.

  • PawedCast Episode 462: Orlando City Off-Season Departures and an Arrival

    PawedCast Episode 462: Orlando City Off-Season Departures and an Arrival
    Jan 22 2025
    It's been almost a month since we broke for the off-season and as of our recording this episode, Orlando City hadn't yet used the open Designated Player slot left behind by Facundo Torres. The Lions lost another forward with the sudden retirement of Jack Lynn. We discussed how that leaves Orlando City quite thin at the top of the attack. However, the Lions did add a winger, although it's not necessarily the guy who will immediately replace Torres. Nicolas Rodriguez is a promising U22 Initiative arrival from Colombia who has the upside to develop into that type of player. Whether he plays a lot or even starts in 2025 remains to be seen. We also discuss what the reported possible transfer of Cesar Araujo would mean for the Lions as we are now just weeks away from the start of the regular season. It's not too late to get something done to help this team improve. It only feels that way. This mailbagbox for this episode asked about workout songs, our experiences with cold, some of our favorite Apple TV shows, and more. Remember, if there’s anything — and we do mean anything — you want us to address on the show, just ask us by tweeting it to us at @TheManeLand with the hashtag #AskTMLPC, or hitting us up on Bluesky Social with that same hashtag. Finally, we discussed a pair of friendlies at Inter&Co Stadium this week, including the USMNT hosting Costa Rica and Orlando City playing Atletico Mineiro in the FC Series. We should have reports on both matches for you at The Mane Land. And we end the show with news we didn't want to discuss — the departure of Homegrown goalkeeper Mason Stajduhar to Real Salt Lake. Be sure to rate and review our show wherever you get your podcasts. Remember, we'll read any five-star reviews we get on Apple Podcasts on the next show. Here’s how No. 462 went down: 0:15 – The Lions had one arrival to go along with the departures and we discuss the holes in the roster. 30:01 - The first mailbagbox of 2025! 49:16 – Upcoming friendlies in Orlando for the USMNT and Orlando City as well as another player departure we didn't want to talk about.

  • PawedCast Episode 461: Facundo Torres' Transfer, Orlando City's 2025 MLS SuperDraft Class, and More

    PawedCast Episode 461: Facundo Torres' Transfer, Orlando City's 2025 MLS SuperDraft Class, and More
    Dec 24 2024
    With Facundo Torres officially transferring to Palmeiras on Friday, we reconvened to discuss what it means for Orlando City this off-season and moving forward into 2025. The Lions are sitting pretty in terms of cash, but it remains to be seen how the club will approach having an open Designated Player slot, an open MLS U22 Initiative slot, plenty of General Allocation Money, and a good infusion of cash from Brazil. There are multiple ways the team can address the situation, but the front office has never been in a position where it's had an opportunity to stack the team with quality starters and depth. This week's mailbagbox asked which current Lion needs to step up most, which of our favorite current and former EPL teams' players we'd like to see playing for Orlando, and what we like to eat at Christmas. Remember, if there’s anything — and we do mean anything — you want us to address on the show, just ask us by tweeting it to us at @TheManeLand with the hashtag #AskTMLPC, or hitting us up on Bluesky Social with that same hashtag. Finally, we discussed Major League Soccer not broadcasting or streaming the 2025 SuperDraft and the players Orlando City selected Friday afternoon. We're not huge fans of the draft not being broadcast in some form, and it suggests the event may not have much more of a future. Orlando picked up four players out of college — two from the same school — and every position group except goalkeeper was impacted. Those who sign are likely to spend most of 2025 with OCB.

Here’s how No. 461 went down: 0:15 – The Torres transfer is official and Orlando City has some cash to splash. 17:54 - The mailbagbox wants presents in the form of answers to our listeners' questions. 37:28 – An overview of the lack of an MLS SuperDraft broadcast and Orlando City's 2025 picks.
