Welcome back, LAFC fans. Sorry, we're for a later-than-usual podcast this week. But we're coming at you with great analysis of the match in Portland and a preview of LAFC's trip to San Jose. Vince was in Portland for the Timbers match. He shares his experience amongst the Timbers fans and throughout the city. Max and Vince break down a match they thought LAFC had no business losing. The Black & Gold looked almost as good as they have during this entire run of good form. They simply didn't finish their big opportunities. The guys give their takes on that and the great play of Chicho Arango. Is the Colombian a Newcomer of the Year candidate? Max and Vince discuss. Then it's on to San Jose. All is not lost after the defeat in Portland but LAFC has to be nearly perfect to end the season. The guys talk about what they feel LAFC needs before the upcoming international break and if the playoffs are in the cards. All that and the usual off-topic tangents and sidetracks music, movies and more on another episode of the MVP. Please rate, review, and share. And thank you for listening!

LAFC has followed up its eight-match winless streak with two wins on the bounce. The Black & Gold now have the playoffs in sight but the matches are going to start coming fast and heavy from here until the end of the season. Max and Vince have a full breakdown of the 3-2 win over Real Salt Lake. Bob Bradley rewarded the team that beat Sporting KC last week and it paid off within 20 seconds. Chicho Arango has found his scoring boots. Bryce Duke continues to power the team forward from an interesting role. While Eduard Atuesta has grown into his role as LAFC captain with Carlos Vela still nursing an injury. The guys talk about the best performances from the match and why a little luck isn't such a bad thing this time of year. We then turn our attention to Austin FC and the tough road schedule that awaits LAFC. And the guys go on plenty of tangents and diversions about their weekends, music, movies, etc. Pretty much what you expect from an episode with all Max and Vince in it. Please subscribe, rate, review, and share the podcast wherever you can, and thank you to all our loyal listeners as we come into the home stretch of the season.

Hope everyone had a fantastic and safe holiday weekend after LAFC kicked started things into overdrive on Friday night. Four goals against the second-best team in the Western Conference is a great result even before you consider all the extras around this match. Mamadou Fall has officially made himself known in the league with an MLS Team of the Week performance and two goals. We had the pleasure of having Mamadou join us to talk about both goals and his incredible celebration amongst the 3252. Max and Vince dive into the tactics that helped LAFC control much of the match and another star performer on the night - Bryce Duke. Playing in a free role behind the strikers, Bryce was pivotal on the night. Max and Vince bring the midfielder on to talk about his play against SKC and how the Las Vegas Lights has kept him sharp. All that and more on a new episode of the Inside LAFC: Max + Vince Podcast. Please share, rate, and review!

LAFC capped a huge week in Los Angeles football history with a derby against the Galaxy on Saturday. The Black & Gold faced an uphill battle as another error led to a goal they shouldn't have conceded. But Bob Bradley's team responded on numerous occasions to peg back their rivals. Brian Rodriguez stepped up in the biggest moments, scoring what might be the best LAFC goal all-time and adding another after the Galaxy equalized. However, it wasn't enough in the end. The Galaxy found a late goal to steal a point and spoil the day. Max and Vince break it all down including the good and bad of the match against the Galaxy. While their despair turned to cautious optimism after thinking more on the match. And how LAFC can claw its way back into a playoff spot but is running out of time. Special guest Rodolfo Landeros of Fox Sports and Fox Deportes joins the show to talk about a historic MLS All-Star Game at Banc of California Stadium and how Mexico is taking notice of American soccer even more so after the match. All that and more on a new episode of the MVP.

Description: There are no easy answers when your team finds itself in a rut. LAFC is in the midst of a six-match winless run - the worst in club history. Max and Vince give their honest takes around the loss in Atlanta and share their frustrations watching the team do things well nearly everywhere but the scoreline. The guys also get their obligatory VAR complaints out of the way after Mamadou Fall was denied his first MLS goal in poor fashion. But after that, it's what you all came for. LAFC Co-President & GM John Thorrington joins us for over half an hour. Max and Vince get through a slew of questions, including how the transfer market looks as the European deadline approaches, will LAFC be looking to use its Allocation Money sooner rather than later, and John's perspective on LAFC's struggles this season. All that and more on another episode of the Max + Vince Podcast. If you love it, please subscribe, rate, review, and share!

It's a Transfer Deadline Day Extravaganza! Max and Vince are here to bring you everything they know - unfortunately, it isn't much. The MLS Secondary Transfer Window is coming to a close while the guys are recording this podcast. LAFC has already made one big move earlier in the week, signing Cristian "Chicho" Arango. Are there more moves to come? Max and Vince discuss why LAFC could still add players after the deadline and their thoughts about why they possibly should. We also discuss some of the moves around MLS, including a rival getting stronger. But first, the guys break down the debacle that took place at Banc on Wednesday night. What went wrong against SKC and is there an easy fix? Max and Vince have ideas and help soothe some of your worries. All that and more on a new episode of the MVP podcast. Please rate, review, and share!

The show is just a little bit different this week. Max is joining Vince via Zoom on a special Thursday edition of the Max + Vince Podcast. As some of you know, Max missed the last two LAFC matches after testing positive for Covid-19. Thank you for all the kind messages and well-wishes that Max received while he was out. The good news is he recently tested negative and the vaccines kept him from having more severe symptoms while also keeping his family safe - please, if you are able to get vaccinated, do the same. We had two matches to talk about this week. Both ended in somewhat similar circumstances. Max and Vince talk about the changes in formation in the Vancouver match, what they thought of the comeback, and then turn a majority of the attention to the stunning ending against Minnesota United. What went wrong? Is this something LAFC should be worried about long-term? Do they need more leadership? Maybe a change in formation? Max and Vince tackle all these questions and more from the match. And finally, we talk about the blockbuster trade that sent Mark-Anthony Kaye to the Colorado Rapids. Max and Vince share their thoughts on MAK, the player and the man, and where LAFC goes from here with all that allocation cash. All that and more in this episode of the MVP.

When you're right, you're right. And we're definitely feeling like we're coming correct these days. After a rough patch to start the season, LAFC looks like they are back on track with three wins in a row. The Black & Gold are making their way back up the standings and are now just three points back of their rivals to the south. Max & Vince toot their own horns a little bit by talking about how they knew this team wasn't far off and what they think has been the reason by the recent results. They also talk about the absolutely world-class finish by Carlos Vela to secure a win over Real Salt Lake and why Kim Moon-Hwan's pass was just as nice. We look ahead to a rivalry match with Portland. And to close the show, MLSsoccer.com's Matt Doyle joins the guys to talk about the USMNT, LAFC's early struggles, why Eduard Atuesta is worth a fortune, and if Diego Rossi should be close behind Gianluca Busio. All that and more on the latest episode of the Max + Vince Podcast. Be sure to share, rate, and review the podcast on your favorite podcasting platform.
