Ted Lasso is back: the hugely successful Apple TV series has returned for a fourth season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sports comedy-drama \u2013 which follows an American football coach with zero soccer experience who is hired to run a struggling English Premier League team \u2013 has become a cultural phenomenon. It has won 13 Emmy Awards and was the most-watched original streaming show in the United States in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Season 4, Ted faces a new challenge: coaching a second-division women\u2019s soccer team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The show\u2019s popularity raises an interesting question for anyone involved in sport: would Ted Lasso actually be a good coach in real life?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
