## Resource

In this episode, LDG breaks down every club's roster and chances this season ahead of the 2026 NWSL season. From offseason moves and key returning stars to tactical questions and breakout candidates, LDG answers lingering questions after a hectic offseason, which saw numerous coaches and players switching clubs (the former of which had many moves that made little sense) Which teams are ready to contend for the top of the table? Who could surprise the league? And which clubs might be in for a rebuilding year? LDG goes through each of the 16 clubs to evaluate strengths, weaknesses, star players, and the biggest storylines that will shape the season, while answering all of these questions. Throughout the episode, I also predict each club's final table position, starting with my 16th-place side and working my way up to the clubs that I believe will be championship contenders. As stressful as predicting the table was, I'd love to hear your predictions ahead of the NWSL season, and I hope that you enjoyed this episode! Thank you for listening!
