“Ted Lasso” presents a consolingly rosy version of professional sport
Richmond, a struggling Premier League club. Fans and fellow players regard Zava as a footballing legend, an image he cultivates. He is a prolific goalscorer, producing powerful strikes, looping chips and gravity-defying bicycle kicks at will. He is also tall, tattooed, long-haired and extremely intense. In short, he is a fictionalised version of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, a Swedish striker known for his wondrous feats on the pitch and his ludicrous statements off it.
Take Ted , the titular character. An American coach largely unfamiliar with English football, he was initially hired by Rebecca out of spite: she had acquired ownership of Richmond after an acrimonious divorce and wanted to destroy her ex-husband’s beloved club. Of course, she is won over by Ted’s Southern charm and confesses her dastardly plan. She keeps him on despite the fact he still has no interest in the virtues of different playing formations and oversees various humiliating defeats.
Rupert is the show’s most unpleasant character, and a renowned lech. The players, meanwhile, are depicted as harmless. This being a lighthearted show, there are none of the troubling sexual-assault allegations that have dogged various stars at Premier League clubs in recent years. Under Ted’s leadership, everyone strives to be a better player and, more importantly, a better person.
