For the Glory KC is back with the 124th episode of the show!

Sporting Kansas City dropped their most recent match with LAFC 2-0. It was their 11th loss in their last 12 games with the only other result being last week's draw against Minnesota United. Of course, we have to discuss what happened in the game and what needs to change. But the biggest question, other than the job security of Peter Vermes (which we address), is 'When will Sporting KC win again?'

The upcoming schedule has games that appear more winnable than others, but nothing about recent trends suggest Sporting KC are in a good position to win. Here are the next 10 games and the team's current point total:

  • @ FC Dallas (7 points)
  • vs. St. Louis City (8 points)
  • vs. Portland Timbers (7 points)
  • @ San Jose Earthquakes (6 points)
  • @ FC Cincinnati (7 points)
  • vs. LA Galaxy (2 points)
  • @ Portland Timbers (6 points)
  • @ St. Louis City (8 points)
  • @ San Diego FC (8 points)
  • vs. New England Revolution (1 point)

When do you realistically think Sporting KC can win a game? Let us know in the comments.

Beyond the abysmal current state of Sporting Kansas City, Sheena and I delve into the results of the US Open Cup against the Des Moines Menace, talk about the Johan Ortiz signing and Alenis Vargas finds a new home.

Finally, the KC Current had themselves another delightful week. They went on the road and beat the previously perfect Washington Spirit, leaving just KC and Orlando Pride as perfect teams. We delve into some bright spots in the game that included VAR (seriously), Lorena and of course Temwa, including a fantastic Temwa Chawinga stat. Then we talk about the low key signing of Friday Mukoma.

In the Digital Crawl, we touch on a few more topics, including:

  • CF Montreal fire their coach
  • Exciting MLS kit news
  • USMNT's double loss
  • Pro/Rel in the USL
  • and Denver NWSL's stadium plans

Here is a rundown of topics (and approximate start times):

  • Sporting KC return to their losing ways - 3:47
