Sure would be great to keep our record perfect at home before heading out for a few tough road games. Would love to know the status of some of our injured/missing players. Rolff - they had indicated might be back for this game. Seemed optimistic at the time Alesandrini - I assume is out. Them not releasing his MRI results from Monday is no bueno probably. Araujo- Really wondering about the kid. Can't imagine he'd be back on Friday despite what GBS said post game. Alverez - not injured but will his international commitments allow him to participate in this one? The mixture of injuries presents a perfect chance for him to play. Crappy timing that he's been away with a u-17 mexico team. And Ibra...can he really play this many minutes effectively at his age? Would be nice to give him a breather at some point. Maybe Antuna up top and start Pontius and Ema like we did vs. Minnesota in game #3.
Alessandrini will be out. For this game and most of the season... https://www.lagalaxy.com/post/2019/...ain-alessandrini-undergoes-successful-surgery
Romain is out for the season. Te Klose is just being optimistic. No way will he be in any shape to contribute after half a year off. Romain is done. That is a big hit to the team no matter how much he was contributing lately.
Unfortunately you are probably correct. The Galaxy have a tendency to just print happy news. I will be really impressed if the Galaxy bring in a injury replacement player before the Transfer window closes on May 7th. Maybe Landon would like to come back and attempt to pad his stats.
Porter, Olave, and Will Johnson may be gone, but I still don’t like these guys. We have to start rotating, and a home game on short rest should be a good time. Bummer for Alessandrini. I’m still waiting for Corona to show more. I believe he can. I’ll be at the game, once again, hoping for goals to cheer. Go Galaxy!
Jamison is playing for SAFC. I don't follow them, but I was able to find his stats on scoreboard.com. He appears to have been a sub to start the season, but has started the last 4 and scored 3 goals. He hasn't played a complete game yet but got to the 79th minute in SAFC's win today. Who scored doesn't rate USL games. I believe the Galaxy have the right to recall him at any time but I don't think that they will in the short term.
I forgot to post that BJIV played 74 minutes and scored in the game against Galaxy II. LEM-LAG posted a summary of that game in the G2 thread. He said:

The W today is doable. Injuries, travel, fatigue and all. Hidrate, stretch, pace yourselves Galaxy. Let's get the 3 in the books.
A win today combined with the mid-week tie would make for a very successful week. But gotta take care of business today for it to be a good week. I'm working today (yay tv pilots) so I'll heading offline at game time until I can watch it this evening. Hope everyone going to the game has a great time. And hope everyone watching it on tv has just as much fun. And I hope we win...
Traore rewarded for a good GII game with a start over Skjekjlkkvk. Your #LAGalaxy XI for #LAvRSL 👏 @ModeloUSA pic.twitter.com/3WJXaAsDuE— LA Galaxy (@LAGalaxy) April 28, 2019 And now I log out. Have a fun time everyone - I like the lineup for this one!
Can't make it to the game, so I get to watch with the BS Galaxy crew and the sterling play-by-play of @skydog. I'm pumped! (plus my beers are way cheaper)
Where is Giancarlo? When will he be ready to start!?! Maybe we can sign Gio back at league minimum to help fill in for Romain? HAHAHA!
Something to watch: Pontius on the right does a ton of work covering for Feltscher's lack of defensive ability/willingness to track back after attack, and in many ways is a better partner for Feltscher than Alessandrini.
