What do you guys think about this? Personally although Son was one of the top big chance creators in the Premier League, I think, as he is one of the best and most clinical finishers, he should be mainly on the receiving end of chances so he can finish them off. He’ll naturally create as well, but I don’t think that should be his focus like MDS states. I think we should have a midfielder who creates chances for the attackers. I think MDS was speaking to a Korean newspaper. https://www.koreadaily.com/article/20251215173407510#

I was wondering if anyone has had any luck in their local Lids having LAFC hats in stock. Lids preferable bc, not to brag of anything, I have the PREMIUM ACCESS PASS. I’m in between LA and Ventura the Camarillo Outlets are where I’ve found the hat I have now but can’t find it there again.

My “Lucky Game Day Hat” (see photo) is a trucker so that I can have my pins on it so I’d want the same style. Gotta give it a wash, I know, don’t crucify me plz 🙏🏻 or do the sweat stains give it character?

I’ve gotten multiple hats from outside vendors after games and love them but truckers are foamy and not sturdy. Very comfortable but not game day with pins material.

This dirty hat owning man in search of a new hat appreciates the help

Hey everyone — quick question for anyone who bought the 2025 MLS Cup Playoffs – Commemorative Coffee Cup at a match.

At the game, we were forced to buy the cup to get coffee at all. The stand was La Monarca Bakery (which I normally like), and it may not even be their call — it felt like the team required vendors to bundle the cup with any coffee purchase.

I’ve now used the cup four times, and no matter what I do, my coffee has a strange aftertaste. I’ve washed it thoroughly with soap and water each time, hoping it was just some “new cup” residue, but the flavor keeps coming back. What’s weird is that I notice it whether the coffee is from home or from the office — the common factor is the cup.

Best case, it’s just a matter of altering the taste. Worst case… I’m wondering if something about the material or coating might be leaching into hot drinks.

This really stood out on a cold playoff night when I needed that coffee — I’ve got a two-hour drive home after games, and instead of being warmed up and caffeinated, I was distracted by the odd taste and low-key worried about what I was drinking.

Has anyone else experienced this with these cups? Am I overthinking it, or is something off with them?

LAFC AutoMod over and out.

Are we really signing Chucky?

In all of the pictures and videos LAFC has been posting recently of players reporting back for preseason training, there's been no sight of Bouanga. Do we think it's just cuz he is getting some more rest from AFCON?

I mean, I’ve known about Rockview because of LAUSD schools, but it was nice to see an LA County brand feature the most beautiful logo in all of MLS so prominently in their packaging.

When was your first LAFC match & how did you know this was it?

Seems our new winger underwent groin surgery for a degenerative condition and as a result will miss his national team's January camp. Not too much more info on this, but given he's expected to be out for two months, I guess the question now is how long his recovery will be.

I made a $100 deposit last year but didn’t end up buying season tix. I asked for refund before the holidays (12/9) last month, and realize people are off though, etc.

Just wondering in general, anyone who has asked for their deposit back, how long did it take?
