00:00The very best team in MLS, and we have to talk about Nashville before anything else, Camila, because their season,
00:06it was legendary.
00:08One of the best seasons that I've seen in MLS, and the team looks unstoppable.
00:14Yeah, absolutely.
00:15I think, you know, coming off winning the Supporters' Shield, this is going to be a massive confidence boost.
00:19I'm really excited to see, you know.
00:21Let me make the point.
00:22Look at the stats.
00:24I mean, stats a lot.
00:2517 points.
00:2617 points of difference with Miami.
00:28The team that has the Golden Boot winner on Messi, and it has great players, and it's still 17 points
00:35of difference.
00:36It's crazy.
00:37And points plus 46 differential, this is a machine.
00:40Absolutely.
00:41I think the points speak for themselves.
00:43Also, when we saw, you know, some classic games against Nashville and Inter-Miami, things got heated.
00:48And Nashville, I think they showed a lot of composure throughout the end.
00:51And the thing that Nashville has that Inter-Miami doesn't have, we've been talking about it the entire season.
00:56They have, you know, an evenness across the board, across the field, as our Inter-Miami, very strong up top,
01:04but defense lacking.
01:05Nashville, as we can see, obviously the defense is holding it down.
01:10They have strengths across the board, and I think that's why they're, you know, leaps and bounds ahead of everybody
01:16else.
01:16I do want to take a moment to see the Supporters' Shield standings, where you can see who are the
01:22best teams in the MLS right now.
01:24Nashville at the top.
01:25Vancouver Whitecaps, that we have to say, the best team in the West.
01:28They have been superior to LAFC for a number of seasons now.
01:33I remember early when they start winning against us, I was like, ah, this team is dangerous.
01:38And little by little, they got LAFC number, for me, very well-deserved, the West representative.
01:44Inter, the Miami, New England Revolution, FC Dallas, Chicago Fire, Charlotte, St. Louis, winners of the Open Cup, and San
01:53Jose Earthquakes.
01:54And topping the, you know, rounding the top 10, Houston Dynamo FC.
01:58Cami, donde están nuestros black and gold in 13th place, Galaxy in 20th place.
02:06Look, look, I'm scrolling, doom scrolling to the end, where we see Montreal, Kansas City, DC United, and Atlanta United.
02:13These two teams, Camila, they invested over $25 million just this season in players to get this team going.
02:20Y nada de nada.
02:23Absolutely.
02:23But, you know, something that we're talking about on the Latin Nation sports team, players don't mean all, right?
02:29You need that cohesiveness.
02:30This is, you know, such an old tale.
02:33It doesn't matter if you're on the top players.
02:34If you don't have this cohesiveness, if you don't have the chemistry, if you don't have the drive, it's just
02:38not going to happen for you.
02:40Let's look at the upcoming games and see maybe some quick predictions of who's going to come out on top.
02:45Well, we have to see the playing matches that are going to be.
02:50Let's pull those up because I feel like those are the most important.
02:53Orlando versus Cincinnati and Seattle Sanders versus Southlake.
02:58Those are the teams that are looking for one last spot into their conferences to see who makes it.
03:04And then we have some of them already decided.
03:07New England versus Philadelphia, Dallas versus Portland, Miami versus Columbus, Chicago versus Charlotte, and St. Louis versus LAFC.
03:15At a deficit, trying to get some points before getting eliminated, Kami.
03:19It's going to be sad to go out in the first round, but I think that's going to be the
03:23case.
03:24Do you think that's going to be the case?
03:25What's going on with LAFC?
03:27Your analysis of what's going on.
03:31Kami, okay, here we go.
03:35LAFC is in a complete changeover.
03:38This is a team that is no longer new.
03:40We are closing into 10 years of existence, and I feel like the balance of number of trophies with expectations
03:47and the hype are not really quite matching.
03:50I feel like at this point, we should have multiple MLS Cups that we don't have, have been wishy-washy
03:57on our playoff participations,
03:59and we have been unable to get the best out of many superstars.
04:05We have Giroud that couldn't perform at the highest level.
04:07We see Sonny not performing at the highest level.
04:10And we see that they let go of players that really understand the mystic of the team.
04:16One of those players, Eli Sanchez.
04:17I think that that departure was a sign of the times to come.
04:22And now we just have like a revolving door of very young, unproven talent from different parts of the world
04:28that lack connection with identity of the supporters.
04:32And so I feel like the product in the field is not matching the product in the stands, which was
04:37kind of like the prophecy that everyone in Los Angeles was calling for.
04:40Little by little, we're fading out of the top of the tournament, but we're not as bad as Galaxy.
04:46So that makes me happy.
04:48So that's okay.
04:49And that's okay, because at least Galaxy, they couldn't even make it to the playoffs.
04:53They got eliminated in the very last decision day, match day.
04:57Pero bueno, Camila, in the reality, LAFC is in a disappointing moment for the team.
05:04And I feel like as a fan, it is tough because I've seen many, you know, day one fans kind
05:12of cooling off in their passion for the team, not giving up on the team, but also feeling a little
05:18bit neglected, not represented, not catered for, if you will.
05:23I think the team deserves to give, you know, the people more.
05:27And when I say more, I feel like it's a better, more exciting idea of football, a proposal that teams
05:37see and they're like, ah, LAFC.
05:38You know, you remember back in the day, you will see LAFC.
05:41I remember back in the day.
05:43And they will have a very clear, defined DNA when they play.
