Love the analysis of the fullback positioning and midfield responsibilities. Always feel like I understand LAFC’s tactical approach better after hearing from you.

LAFC has set such a high standard that I this week hasn’t been shocking, but for a USMNT fan, traveling to Costa Rica winning 3-0 and then following that up with a 4-0 win three days later against an above average club is truly mind blowing. I’m starting to worry that Steve is doing such a good job that he will go from in the conversation of the USMNT manager gig to the favorite.

It would have been nice to see Long finish the game he dominated Wood the whole game he deserved 90.

He's still working his way back to fitness. I wonder if he was taken off with a eye towards starting him on Wednesday.

All I can say they are playing like champions they are..! too early in the season to get too excited but is looking very very promising!

Thanks for bringing us your wise analysis! You and your fellow crew 110% were at amiss for celebration after the amazing game - it feels like a band splitting after just two great albums...

Appreciate the takes Vince! Also, enjoyed seeing Bouanga drop some passes off instead of forcing himself to dribble. If he continues to remain consistent and healthy, I agree. We will see an MVP season from Bouanga 👊🏽
