Welcome to Treble Radio – a North American based radio show talking all things Premier League. We may not be European, but we think we know a fair bit about soccer (sorry, football) and even if we don’t we’re going to pretend that we do.
Join Arslan, Laura, and Eric every Week as we discuss the latest in Premier League happenings.
The Premier League is back from the International Break this weekend and so is Treble Radio. We review England’s performances over the break and discuss the progress of the English national team. Specifically, Arslan wants to know why the English youth teams often do so well and the senior team doesn’t? Are the players failing to develop from young prospects into world class players or is it a system problem?
Then, we preview this week’s biggest game, Arsenal vs. Liverpool. How confident are Eric and Arslan about their team’s respective chances heading into the match? Will Sturridge be healthy? Is this a must win game for Liverpool to stay in the Champions League race?
Finally, what are the other games to watch this week in the Premier League? We preview the rest of the league and discuss Greg Dyke’s homegrown player proposal.
As always, follow us on Twitter @TrebleRadio, tweet us your questions, thoughts, and reactions each week and we’ll discuss on air.
Treble Radio Previews Arsenal vs Liverpool and Talks England National Team
Born in Omaha, Nebraska, Laura was trained from birth to be a Nebraska Cornhusker Football fan. Unlike most Huskers, her dad played soccer and introduced her to that sport as well, which understandably stole her heart. Laura’s love for the Spice Girls and Harry Potter carried her love for soccer across the Atlantic to a team not unlike her Huskers, Manchester United. They were once great and believe they can be again, but it hasn’t really happened yet. Laura is also a fan of the MLS team Sporting Kansas City in the typical fashion of a Nebraskan: loving a KC team due to lack of anything at all in the state of Nebraska.
Eric Walcott is a Legislative Assistant in the Michigan House of Representatives by day, and a soccer fan 24/7. He’s played soccer his whole life and now covers MLS, Portland Timbers, and Arsenal for LWOS. Eric helped start the supporters group Sons of Ransom for NPSL club Lansing United because there’s nothing quite like standing in the crowd and supporting your local team every weekend. 4th place might not be a trophy, but THE FA CUP SURELY IS!
Treble Radio host, Arslan Siddiqui, is a Canadian who does not speak many languages, but he has definitely specialized in the language of the beautiful game. When his grasp of the language isn’t strong enough, he (tries) to substitute it with comedy. He is a Liverpool fan who started the ‘Anfield Alive’ column on Last Word On Sports, where he provides commentary and opinion on everything Liverpool and Premier League related. A university student and a young adult, he promises to provide entertainment and (a little bit of) knowledge!
