When the US and England meet on the pitch, some good things can happen. And one of these things is Ted Lasso, the TV show that debuted in August 2020, amidst uncertain times when people longed for some glimpse of normalcy and a bit of laughter to help them through.
This sports comedy-drama follows our titular main character, an American football coach, moving to England to coach a Premier League soccer team. But wait, wasn’t Ted Lasso a football coach? Do these two sports have anything to do with each other? Not much actually, and this gives life to the whole story. Despite the initial skepticism, Ted’s charisma and wit win over the team members, and he ends up winning over the audience too!
The entire series takes viewers on a journey through Ted’s experience in England, which turns out to be a concentrated juice of life lessons and blessed us with some impressive sports quotes. Ted may be new to soccer, but he’s still a great coach with an ability to connect with people like no other. Ted Lasso’s one-liners are as funny as they are profound, and while they may seem like the result of a spur-of-the-moment attempt to make people laugh, they always have an underlying point that makes us stop and reflect on those words.
For all you Ted Lasso fans out there who want to recall the greatest quotes from the series, this is the place for you! We’ve watched and rewatched the show and took note of Ted’s best lines that we think are worth remembering and sharing.
