    Galaxy Highlight Reel


    I want to see as soon as possible the following lineup

    --------------Ibra
    Pavon-------------Llegett
    ------------Favio
    Corona-------------JDS

    I want Pavon Favio and Legett to be able
    interchange based on opposition with 2 dmids
    managing possession. We should start winning games we should win and outlasting teams that are up to our talent level. If this team over achieves by winning the cup and Pavon becomes a DP; the chances of us signing Messi (if he ever decides to leave Barca someday) actually increases bigtime.

    God, I'm out of it. I don't know who those mysterious men are! I will assume Pavon #10, Alvarez in middle and I forget the name one of our new center backs #3. Geez, it's moments like this when I know I don't pay attention to my team anymore. :(

    I think we have our quota met. But now we are low on Africans. Let’s get on it, DTK!

    A while back I pitched the Galaxy on a "The Men of BigSoccer" calendar. They still haven't returned my call....

    Watching the Pavon vs Haiti clip (and others) I see a more athletic version of Antuna. He's technically skilled and a surprisingly hard worker. But he also looks a bit predictable with his dribble first mentality and exhibits some questionable decision making. He seems like a player who will feast against less athletic MLS defenders but may struggle against the better ones.

    Overall I'm sure he will make us stronger since he looks better than Antuna and Boateng and he has a much more lethal shot (admittedly a low bar). He will give us a 2nd scoring threat (which is a big deal) and his athleticism addresses a midfield weakness on our team.

    But from what I see don't expect a savior a la LD or Keane. I think GBS will still have little margin for error with our team. Lineups will have to be right and our midfield defense will have to improve for us to make a significant playoff run.

    I hope he will help us to spank Shitvas 2.0 asses on 25th, and wipe them with their own jerseys.

    OOOHHH....That would be da shiznit !!! What ive read on alot of Boca message boards is that Cristian is a really good defender and that people dont give him enough credit for having that in his game.

    You can see him do a lot of work trying to harass and dispossess opponents in the Haiti clip above. That will help because we need more of that.

    He is, but the transfer window in Sweden (where Hammarby plays) ends August 13. There's still time. Norway goes until August 31 if you want to keep hope alive even longer.

    I'd like to officially revive the "that's what the people in Bird Box were seeing" joke.

    They're cute. Add in a Lletget, Ibra, JDS and a couple others and I think you're on to something. @ShortyMac ?

    But if they needed to make this deal to be salary cap/roster compliant wouldn't it have to happen before Pavon can be officially added?

    I don't think it was necessary for that. According Corner of the Galaxy, they were discussing it as a separate deal. It might free up some TAM that could be carried over for next year even if it was a free transfer.
