Seattle Sounders Head Coach Brian Schmetzer

Grant interviews Seattle Sounders head coach Brian Schmetzer, whose team has been to three of the last four MLS Cup finals, winning two of them. Schmetzer goes into detail about how he prepares his team for the one-and-done playoffs, why he thinks the Sounders have taken the next step in recent years and answers what he thinks lies ahead in his contract negotiations with the club. Schmetzer also goes into great detail about his intimate connection to the Seattle soccer culture over the years, from youth soccer to turning pro out of high school for the NASL Sounders to coaching the USL Sounders (while having two other jobs on the side) to taking over from Sigi Schmid as the MLS Sounders head coach in 2016 and winning the MLS Cup title that year.
