Chicharito & Efrain Alvarez @ L.A. Laxatives

He's finding plenty of space and time on the left side today for the Galaxy. https://t.co/DpUzRaQ8lK

El hombre de la noche fue Jonathan dos Santos. Dinamismo, fondo físico, vital en lapsos de presión alta, se estrenó como goleador en el fútbol internacional, asistió y aportó fluidez en el mediocampo. Si mantiene este nivel, será una opción muy válida en la era del Tata. MVP. pic.twitter.com/1Jk1rsBlDf

MLS - April 24, 2019:

Dos Santos played the whole game; Antuna played 82 minutes and was replaced by Servando Carrasco (30 y.o. MF) while Julián Araujo played 71 minutes in a 0–0 draw with Minnesota United.

 

Say what you will about MLS, but at least the LA Galaxy are giving Uriel Antuna valuable and regular minutes. He struggled to get very many starts with Groningen during his time there in the Eredivisie.

— Cesar Hernandez (@cesarhfutbol) April 25, 2019

Obviously MLS strives for big El Tri names like Chicharito, Guardado etc, but I think certain young Mexican names like Antuna that struggle for minutes for their current clubs could really benefit from loans to MLS.

Who's this Julian Araujo and how good is he?

 

17 y.o. Mexican-American defender that slowly, but surely has been winning first team minutes. He's been playing for the US U-20, but has maintained that he's open to a switch to Mexico.

And it seems he's doing well at LA.

MLS | In his first MLS start, 🇺🇸 Julián Araujo (17) was rock solid vs. a potent Houston offense ⤵️

✅ 90 minutes
⚔️ 5/6 duels won
💪🏽 4/4 tackles won (100%)
🎯 81.6% pass completion rate
🔑 1 key pass
🚀 2 clearances

Has not lost a tackle yet in his MLS career! 🙌 pic.twitter.com/DQf7DXRoYG
