P/I/P Game 16: L.A. Galaxy vs SKC, SATURDAY 6/24/17, 7:30pm PT

Arguably the best team we’ve played since Chicago. It’ll be an interesting barometer, though Sporting aren’t great on the road.

 

Would be nice if Steres was available to either give Romney a break or to allow him to slide over and take Smith's spot, but I doubt it. Up in the air on Friday for a Saturday game when you had a hamstring pull means you aren't available most likely. Hard to risk putting him out there and needing an early sub.

 

Wow we are playing again?!

 

Hey, do they not do those "Insider" infographics about the upcoming match anymore? Did we make fun of the typos too much.

I'd like to see Mendiola get good minutes if he's available. Maybe start for Zardes, who just went 90 at altitude? I get the feeling Curt, despite everything else, will want to beat this team; I sure do.

 

I'm hoping to find a stream for this one. Looking forward to it.

Go Galaxy! It's time we get 3 points at home.

 

Absolutely no reflection on you, but I am really tired of the Galaxy Front Office misrepresenting when players are likely to return from injury.

 

I'm interested too see who starts up top, whose behind said striker and who starts out wide on the right.

I'd like to see the same line up with as Wednesday but with Romain in place of Zardes.

 

Dang, missing my 3rd game of season.

Gonna be tough, but who knows what's gonna happen?

Alessandreamy is hot and...

Romain is fantastic.

Go Galaxy!

 

Starting XI
Clement Diop; Nathan Smith, Dave Romney, Jelle Van Damme ©, Ashley Cole; Rafael Garcia, Jaime Villarreal; Gyasi Zardes, Romain Alessandrini, Emmanuel Boateng; Jack McBean.

Bench
Jon Kempin, Hugo Arellano, João Pedro, Bradford Jamieson IV, Jose Villarreal, Ariel Lassiter, Jack McInerney.

 

Come on Gyasi, put one in tonight!

 

Be interesting to see how Jaime Villareal does tonight. He could work himself up the depth chart if he has another good game.

 

Diop mistake and we get extremely lucky.

 

Fantastic touch by Alessandrini but couldn't get a clean shot off.

 

Cobi: If the ball had dropped further and the defenders hadn't gotten in the way then Alessandrini would have gotten a better shot off.

 

Zardes needs to be playing wider when we are on attack.

 

Good call Van Damme!

 

I found one. Beware the 18 second ads

Great tackle by Villareal but he needs to release the ball more quickly

 

Diop gives them a goal. Absolutely horrible mistake.

 

????

 

It's official : start Kempin over Diop.
