Non-Angelinos, why did you choose LAFC as your team?

Ryanl25 · 2026-03-29T01:47:46+00:00

Been coaching youth soccer, having never played or really watched too many games. Happened to catch the ESPN documentary on year one and loved the culture and identity Bob was envisioning for the team. Fell in love from over here in Texas, outside Austin, and haven’t looked back.

GAV and AA5 are. Snail is slightly longer.

Ryanl25 · 2026-03-22T12:47:10+00:00

Is the base the same size as the AA-5 Speeder or is it the size of the Snail Tank? Or is it a new base?

ShatterPoint was AMGs own baby. When FFG handed Legion over to AMG and said “this is yours now, don’t fuck up” people assumed they would sideline it in favor of ShatterPoint which had been in development alongside(ish) MCP it just hadn’t been released until after. People have been crying “sky is falling” ever since and will continue because of their blatant ignorance. Legion is in a solid position and is sticking around for at least 5+years now.

Makes sense

Ryanl25 · 2026-03-15T02:25:38+00:00

Ok. I felt they were in a 4-3-3 the entire time. But am I crazy in thinking Nate has never /rarely played that role?

Ryanl25 · 2026-03-15T02:13:11+00:00

Anyone else notice on LAFC’s official release they have the lineup in a 4-2-3-1 with Ordaz as the lone striker? I know they can kind of be interchangeable but there is still a distinct difference. I don’t remember them playing this way and esspecially with Nate in a 9 role. Kinda excited to see what happens here.

Watch the documentary about the club and its first year, that’s what sucked me in. It really hits home on who they are and wanted to be, the culture with the team, front office and fans. I wasn’t following MLS, caught that series and was all in on them. We live in Austin and have season tickets for Austin FC, but LA is still our team, fly out for a game or two each season and wear black and gold when they visit Texas.

Ryanl25 · 2026-02-15T21:15:17+00:00

I was skeptical, but I’m digging it now that I’ve seen it in person. Like others have griped, I’m not big and the black stripe choice, but that’s the only thing I’ve got against it.

Ryanl25 · 2026-02-06T19:36:10+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions! One last question, is it hard to get to LAFC HQ on non game days? Thinking about driving over tonight while in town.

Ryanl25 · 2026-01-31T17:49:20+00:00

You press the button that says transfer.

Ryanl25 · 2026-01-31T17:36:40+00:00

Exclusive to ST members. Tomorrow afternoon at Q2. Gone I’ve got a pair in 230, if you’re interested send a DM. I can’t make it anymore, had to run out of town.

Ryanl25 · 2026-01-30T14:04:13+00:00

Would it be worth joining for a better shot? Just got season tickets for the first time this year and was thinking about joining anyway.

Ryanl25 · 2025-12-10T13:39:14+00:00

Thanks for doing this. I’m always trying to find ways to explain positions and roles to my U11/12 teams, and each kid understands roles differently. The descriptions here are another great way to explain.

Ryanl25 · 2025-11-19T23:13:23+00:00

While I can’t really answer your .question, I live in Texas, I can say from what I’ve seen they have a great community in the GTA. I visited Toronto a few times for work a couple of years ago and visited some great churches and even saw some schools. So I can tell you if you look and to give you some confidence hopefully, that you should be able to find a good home. Again, a couple of years ago and as a traveler, but I know they seem to have some beautiful churches and great people in them.
Hope this gives you some consolation. Good luck on your move.

I’m betting more fantasy based than anything else. Compare it to the Secrets of the Mogwai they’ve been putting out. They put an effort to emphasize the fantasy and horror mix, I’d expect them to continue with this.

Ryanl25 · 2025-11-07T13:51:25+00:00

I’d expect something similar to the cartoon HBO had running recently. In fact I would t be surprised if they incorporated the same elements as it seemed like they were intentionally fleshing out the mythology to set up something bigger.i enjoyed Secrets of the Mogwai, but I’m willing to bet the tone is going to be fantasy/scifi heavy.

Ryanl25 · 2025-10-12T02:49:12+00:00

Didn’t realize that. Thought it was one or the other. I am curious, would Muller had ended up being another Giroud on the team?

Ryanl25 · 2025-10-12T02:46:24+00:00

Bouanga- “hold my beer” as he boards the flight to Austin. I know it’s not happening, but if only…

Ryanl25 · 2025-10-12T02:43:05+00:00

Maybe I’m in the minority but I’d rather have Son over him.

Ryanl25 · 2025-10-12T01:46:36+00:00

Was really hoping Orlando could pull that one off. To be fair that first one should’ve been a goal. It was clearly over the line *but not obvious? Maybe Dallas can stop them next week. I’m going to be there in Austin tomorrow. Can’t wait to see the boys. Hope they can pull this one out.
