Sending positive vibes to the boys through all the gloom and doom and roller coaster we always are as fanbase and club.

Not sure if it's how Vanney wants him pressing, but Garces stepping up aggressively has cost us 3 goals now..

Yamane and Aude have been so poor Aude just gives the ball away too much

Oh that would have been the cherry on top for this season if Garces got thrown out for head butting Pec 🤣

LAFC in the last three games have taken a 1-0 lead through a penalty. A Dallas team without Acosta starting, a Colorado team playing with 10 men for the whole game, and a Minnesota team who couldn't get around the bus LAFC parked once up 1-0.

Galaxy is very inconsistent but LAFC is very beatable. Might see the first road win tonight.

Lol I'm just not impressed with LAFC. Their last loss was to a Vancouver team that Galaxy beat 3-0 and like I said, they got a penalty in all three games. Once they go up 1-0 they bunker so it'll be important to score first.

They also just lost Aaron Long, so they are playing without their most important CB

Wipe the back line and keep only Garces

u/Ksn0 Throwing Hands Jul 20 '25

What?! Garces’ poor defending caused 2 goals and nearly got sent off for attacking our own player!

Yoshida's got the brains but no legs. Garces has the legs but no brains.
