The Los Angeles FC star has been one of Mexico's best players during its strong World Cup run, and that form is making Major League Soccer look good
Carlos Vela has been one of the key contributors in Mexico's impressive start to the 2018 World Cup, with his strong showing against South Korea on Sunday following up a pivotal performance in the 1-0 upset of Germany.
Vela's efforts have made it easy to forget that it wasn't too long ago that there were real questions about what sort of form he would be in after making the surprising decision to leave Spanish side Real Sociedad to sign with Major League Soccer expansion team Los Angeles FC.
