  "We Lost It" - Thomas Müller on Germany's Missing Mentality, Klopp & the Night They Beat Brazil 7-1

  Oct 1, 202626 min

  World Cup winner, Bayern legend and now MLS star Thomas Müller pulls up to The Late Run, and Ocho, who admits he went 14 years without a trophy, finally gets to live vicariously through someone who's won it all. Thomas takes us back to the countryside club where his cousins handed him a ball, why always being the youngest forced him to get creative, and the day Louis van Gaal looked down the bench and said, "you, you there - let's try this guy."Then it gets real: the 2015 Man United offer worth a reported €100M, why he was ready to follow his mentor — and why he was glad Bayern said no ("okay, you're our guy"). Ocho matches it with the two first-round picks Washington offered for him. Thomas explains why you can doubt your performances but never your base, what Jürgen Klopp has to fix in a Germany side he says has lost its mentality, and what it felt like to walk into the locker room 5-0 up on Brazil in a World Cup semi-final — before spending the last 15 minutes running away from David Luiz. And when Ocho asks the GOAT question, Thomas admits he was with Cristiano for ten years… until he looked at the bigger picture. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  "No Way I'm Going to MLS" - What Changed Son’s Mind + Kane's "Not Gifted" & the Ajax Miracle

  Sep 3, 202627 min

  Ocho finally sits down with his favorite player and COUSIN (at least according to the paperwork he brought) - Son Heung-Min. Sonny opens up about the call he almost ignored, “No way going to the MLS", and the years of LAFC persistence that changed his mind. He shares why the packed American stadiums still surprise him every single week. Then Son takes us back to leaving Korea for Germany at 16 years old, where he learned the language by watching SpongeBob, and the discipline that journey built in him.Son goes deep into the Spurs years: the best team he ever played on, the Amsterdam Miracle night Lucas Moura scored three goals, what the night before a Champions League final actually feels like, and Harry Kane's real secret - "it's not gifted." He remembers telling a 19-year-old Dele Alli he'd end up at Real Madrid or Barcelona, and how hard it was to watch his "little brother" go downhill. And when Ocho asks the GOAT question, Sonny gives the most honest answer the show has ever heard: his idol is Ronaldo… but Messi? "I can't disagree." Learn more about your ad choices.
