The Third Sub Episode 232: Jesper Sørensen is named Vancouver Whitecaps head coach (Ft. Toke Theilade)

from The Third Sub · host The Third Sub

Welcome back to another episode of the Third Sub Podcast! As usual, Alex and Sam are back, this time joined by a special guest - Toke Theilade of Danish publication Vilfort Park! Naturally, the three had one big topic to speak of - the arrival of Danish head coach, Jesper Sørensen, to the Vancouver Whitecaps.  Having arrived with a strong CV as a player and coach in his home country, Theilade helps Alex and Sam get a better understanding of what Sørensen will bring to the Whitecaps, as he arrives armed with a flexible tactical profile based around possession-play and a desire to develop youth - which he combines with dry humour off the pitch.  Amid a golden generation of Danish coaches, it's a fascinating hire, and Theilade helps show why, explaining that those back home will heavily follow Sørensen's journey due to the unique adventure he is about to undertake.  After their conversation with Theilade, Alex and Sam further dive into what they expect Sørensen to do with the Whitecaps, getting an idea of which players might benefit from his arrival, and who could be set to struggle.  Lastly, they set the table for what this means for the Whitecaps as they kick off their preseason, in which they'll have to adapt to their new manager while potentially making a few new signings, and they look at what the next few weeks of action could look like on both fronts.  Make sure to check out The Third Sub Podcast on Twitter, @thirdsubpod, as well as on Instagram, @the3rdsub_.
