Kansas City Current sit fourth in the NWSL with a 15-5-9 record as Croix Bethune sets a new single-season assist record. This episode analyzes how Bethune's playmaking impacts Penelope Hocking's scoring opportunities and whether the team can overcome their nine-draw struggle. We discuss Kayla Sharples' midfield control, Lorena's shot-stopping against Utah Royals, and the defensive transitions that could cost them in the playoffs. Topics include the NWSL GM survey, Rodman Rule implications, and predictions for the quarterfinals against teams like Angel City and San Diego Wave.

In this episode: Bethune's Record & Hocking's Struggles · Roster Depth & Undervalued Players · Hypotheticals & Lightning Round.
