We look back on their soccer roots, playing for FC for over a decade, developing as a player and Mensch, their time in the US, injuries, playing for the national team, the current season of FC Köln, and their upcoming time with SC Freiburg Frauen!

Before leaving Cologne in mid August (after the second gameday of the Bundesliga), I had the chance to meet up with legendary commentator Phil Bonney at the Kuhle in the Cologne Südstadt. We had an almost soccer match long chat about local soccer, how a nativity play got him into commentating (eventually), his background in theatre, moving to Cologne, changes in German soccer, his love for Cologne and of course: SOCCER PASSION. I had so much fun doing this interview, editing it, and I hope you do too. Enjoy!

1. FC Köln has one of the best - if not the best - social media presence of all Bundesliga clubs. Time to look behind the facade and talk to them man who answers all your questions via twitter, who live tweets every game, makes sure there is photo and video documentation of every men's and women's team game and so much more. Of course there is a whole media team that works with him. But Jonny Walsh is an important part of FC Köln for every fan who doesn't speak german. So we wanted to give you some insight into his life and work for the club. Enjoy!
