    9.5/10, Amazing

    This was definitely a splendid episode. To get it out of the way, my favorite characters in this episode were the Ted, Jamie, and Dani, and my favorite things about this episode were the Protagonist, the Dialogue, and the ending. I love shows like Mr. Robot where the seasons are always better than the last, so I have high hopes that this whole show will probably be the same, which means the third season is better than the second and the second it better than this one. This was honestly my personal favorite episode of the show as of right now, because the show brings us alot in this episode. So good.

    Annoyingly compelling

    You know when you don't want something to be good but you reluctantly admit that it is?

    I know it is coming through creative writing but I am now cheering on Ted and we all know that eventually the club chairperson will do too.

    Yes, as usual the show got it's one laugh near thd end of the show; a crescendo after a half an hour build up.

    Hannah is doing a great performance as the baddie and Higgins her put upon lapdog is brilliantly portrayed too.

    It's in a grand scheme of things and we are now over the half way mark in the series so things ars sure to pick up for Ted and the team.

    It's like seeing thd inevitable coming and you can't do anything about it.

    An excruciating but a tip of thd hat to the writers even if the acting isn't that great.

    Superstition

    Dani Rojas is the new guy from Mexico. He is a super talent and will challenge Jamie. They actually become friends. But it appears that a training room is haunted by soldiers who died in the first world war. Soccer players are really superstitious and so Ted sets up a kind of exorcism where the players bring important objects that affect them deeply and then burn them. This is such unifying episode which ends on the most sour note possible. Ted feels he is finally breaking through and the team concept is taking precedence over individual egos. But there is a fly in the ointment that ultimately surprises. It will be interesting to see where things go now.

    We Talkin' Bout Practice

    This show continues to impress and the Iverson Practice scene was absolute perfection

    Dani Rojas

    Nice to see this episode touch on the nonsense that is footballers being superstitious.

    It's weird how this show can cover a lot on nonsense but make it seem interesting.

    Good thing this is a 10 episode season as there hasn't been a bum one yet, typically american shows struggle when they're 20+ long a season.

    • Goofs
      When Ted supposedly misuses the German word "schadenfreude" in the term "this is a no schadenfreude zone", coach Beard corrects him, wrongly also, in saying that the correct term is "nein schadenfreude". It's neither. The correct German term is "keine schadenfreude".

      However, it is reasonable to think that "this is a no schadenfreude zone" is a grammatically correct sentence and that coach Beard only "approve" by jokingly adding "nein" (which is not grammatically accurate but not a goof).
    • Quotes

      Ted Lasso: Hey, Jamie. I heard you're not gonna be able to run with us today. That true?

      Jamie Tartt: Yep.

      Ted Lasso: Why's that?

      Jamie Tartt: 'Cause I'm hurt.

      Ted Lasso: Really sorry to hear that.

      [starts to walk away]

      Jamie Tartt: Relax, Ted. It's just practice.

      [Ted stops walking; locker room goes silent]

      Ted Lasso: Hey. If you can't practice, you can't practice. If you're hurt, you're hurt. It's as simple as that. But it ain't about that... at all. You're sitting in here, you're supposed to be the franchise player. And yet here we are, talking about you missing practice. We're talking about practice. You understand me? Practice. Not a game. Not a game, not the game you go out there and die for, right? Play every weekend like it's your last, right? No, we're talking about practice, man! Practice! You know you're supposed to be out there. You know you're supposed to lead by example. You're just shoving that all aside. And so here we are, Jamie. We're talking about practice. Not a game. Not the game. We're talking about practice, with your team. With your teammates. The only place we get to play together, we got control over. Rest of the time, it's us eleven against those eleven. We're talking about practice, man! I'm talking about practice! And you can't do it, 'cause you're "hurt"! Right? It's fine by me. Tell you what, do me a favor. When you get out there, set up the cones so the other reserves can do a little passing drill.

      [walks off]

      Jamie Tartt: You want me to set up cones?

      Ted Lasso: [over his shoulder] I really appreciate it!
