A slightly different feel to the Agenda this week for a couple reasons. The big one being we're leading with our interview this time around. How could we not when it's Da Boy on the guest list. Sebastian Lletget joins the Agenda for the first time this season to talk a myriad of topics, including (somehow) a potential new nickname for Dallas' erstwhile midfield statesman.

Then the main Agenda gets rolling with a substitution, as the FC Dallas insider Garrett Melcer was a late scratch due to illness. That means Ryan, Steve, and producer Sam take up the mics this week to talk about the Burn's revolving door in midfield, why it has/hasn't worked, and what they think might be the best practice going forward for the Toros in the pitch's center.

It's game preview time after that and what a game is coming to Toyota Stadium. LAFC makes their only scheduled stop in Frisco Saturday featuring newly signed star Son Heung-Min. The lads talk about the impact Korea's top athlete will have in his first Frisco trip while also touching on a low key stellar MLS matchup that fans will see between the lines.

The vibes are immaculate on the Agenda this week after FC Dallas picks up a 2-nil win at Toyota Stadium over the Portland Timbers. Before that however Ryan, Garrett, and Steve break down the huge news from late last week: Lucho Acosta is no longer with FC Dallas. They break down why it didn't work, how the team can move forward, and whether they should fill the #10 spot at all in the summer transfer window.

After that the lads talk through Saturday's home win. They get some field sound from Timbers manager Phil Neville, talk about some underrated aspects of the win, and celebrate a pair of unlikely goals.

Then it's interview time and who else but the Man of the Match from Saturday Lalas Abubakar. Lalas talks about growing up as a soccer fan, what it means to score his first goal in Dallas colors, and much much more. It's a super engaging interview everyone should check out.

Lastly the Agenda talks about this weekend's Copa Tejas showdown with rival Austin FC, including the first time former FCD manager Nico Estèvez faces off with his old club.

The Agenda got thrown for a bit of a loop this week as there's breaking news regarding a long time FC Dallas player. Left back Marco Farfan is on his way to Liga MX as he's been transferred to historic Mexican first division side Tigres. Ryan and Garrett react to this big news, what it means for Marco himself, and where this leaves the Toros when it comes to left back down the stretch in 2025.

After that the man himself speaks for the final time as a member of FC Dallas. Ryan sat down with Marco to get his thoughts on the transfer, what it was like being traded to Dallas in 2022, his favorite memories in Frisco, and the impact he's left on his position group.

Thanks for the memories Marco. Buena suerte!

They then took questions from the STMs in the audience. Topics include Lucho Acosta, Marco Farfan, and the potential future for some of FC Dallas' youngsters down the stretch.

After the Q&A the lads discussed a big time milestone for starting goalkeeper Maarten Paes in the upcoming Portland game. They talk through his growth since arriving from FC Utrecht, and break down their personal favorite saves from Indonesia's #1.

To finish out this special edition the lads did a player draft of all time FC Dallas players. Not for a standard squad however, for a five a side team. How many current first teamers made it among the various club legends? Only one way to find out.
