TV review: Ted Lasso is back with his gosh-darn optimism, but real soccer fans may find it unwatchable
Ted Lasso has meanwhile recast the Premier League – which Americans annoyingly pronounce without the hard “r” at the end of Premier – as a snugly sporting Disneyland. The premise is simple. A naive American college football coach , full of gosh-darn optimism, has been parachuted in as manager of the fictional soccer club AFC Richmond.
If you like feel-good comedy you’ll find it tolerable. If you’ve been to a soccer match you might find it unwatchable. For instance, as we begin series three and Ted sends his son on a plane back to the United States, the hot gossip is that Richmond are in trouble. A few subplots swirl around. Ted’s kit man turned assistant coach has been appointed manager of West Ham . Meanwhile to motivate his players Ted takes them on a trip to the London sewers.
