Chivas USA 2012

Today's item in my MLS collection is the CD Chivas away shirt from 2012. Chivas are actually from Mexico, they have a team that plays in the Primera Division but also have a MLS franchise team.  Unfortunately they didn't have a great campaign, finishing bottom of the western conference.

Chivas play their home matches at the Home Depot centre in LA, which is the same stadium as MLS champions LA Galaxy. The "goats" as they are known do have a good history of producing US national team players, Jonathan Bornstein, Sacha Kljestan and Brad Guzan who's currently at Villa.  Also a certain ex Villa striker Juan Pablo Angel turned out for Chivas in 2011.

This was probably my favourite shirt from the MLS last season, so when I saw it in the sale on the mls web site I couldn't resist....
