Can Son Heung-min Contend for MVP? | LAFC v Vancouver Whitecaps Preview

from Happy Foot Sad Foot: An LAFC Podcast

Darren and Vince preview LAFC’s Saturday match vs the Vancouver Whitecaps at BC Place, with key storylines from Travis in front of a SICKENING Hawaii sunset. We debate whether Sonny’s recent scoring run and league-leading assists put him in the MVP conversation already, how LAFC’s shift toward a deeper, transition-heavy style is unlocking Sonny and Bouanga, and what that means against a possession-oriented Vancouver side. We also dig into the evolving starting midfield (Tillman, Delgado, Choinière, the return of Igor Jesus) and what roster flexibility could bring in the window. AND MORE!!! Oh, you want more specifics? Here, here's every single thing with the exact timecode for when we discuss it.
