I watched the first season and a few episodes more, and I didn't like it. I kept waiting for the show to become worthy of its praise, but I really should have stopped sooner.

The on-the-nose writing did not work for me at all, and I didn't find it funny where it was trying to be.

The show uses a made-up soccer club as a backdrop, but it felt very arbitrary; it may as well have been set in any other sport or industry. Others may like this about the show, but it just felt careless to me.
