Can the team build momentum off their match against Portland and get on a win streak? Will Rayan or Vazquez score another golazo? Race for Seis (and not place) is On!
Let's F-ing GO! Our National Teamers are back. Efrain is 100% game ready as he wasn't even used except in the 1st game. Jona and Seb might be game ready depending on if they got a long enough break. Big Question is Chicharito, any word on his injury recovery?
Chicha and Vasquez are “questionable” but Vanney basically admitted that Chicha is out still. Maybe Sunday we will be at full strength.
Sebastian Lletget discusses beating Mexico twice in one summer, his most influential national team captains, how the #USMNT has evolved under Gregg Berhalter, and a whooooole bunch more! -T https://t.co/bBmuqFOi0J— Total Soccer Show (@TotalSoccerShow) August 4, 2021 https://t.co/bBmuqFOi0J?amp=1 According to Seb, he has already trained with LA and will be available.
I think Jona might be in Mexico with his family. He might be missing for a game or two. Hopefully we can find some time to rest Seba.
I don't think Lletget starts this nor do we really want him to imo. He has played a lot this past month. Hopefully we are winning and don't even need to sub him on. Alvarez though...I don't think he even got minutes for mexico since the beginning of the gold cup. He should be in contention to start especially if Vazquez is out.
He came on their first game when Lozano had that horrible injury to his face. It was the only game he played.
I'm a little cagey about this match. No more altitude excuse. No more tired excuses as RSL played this weekend also. No more on-the-road excuses. No more bare-bones excuses as we have guys coming back to add to Sega. But, I just don't know. Which team will show up? The one from the first twenty minutes of the Portland match or the one who woke the hell up and took care of business? Are they going to play down to RSL? I just don't know. This should be another 3 points in the bag. GALAXY!!!
Clean sheet and a win. That is what would be a perfect evening. Then team at full strength for Sunday vs. Vancouver.
Got an opportunity to bank some points before we face Colorado in a game that will be decisive points wise. Considering we tied them in Utah, I'm expecting a win here.
Only question mark is up front. Starting to wonder how serious the Chicharito injury is and he has been out so long, how much time does he need to regain form. Go Galaxy!
According to Vanney, who is pretty transparent (and medically specific!) about this stuff, Chicharito had a setback, which is why he is questionable for tonight rather than farther along. http://cornerofthegalaxy.com/2021/08/03/notebook-vanney-says-galaxys-good-but-can-be-great/
It's a serious injury. More than a month out and counting. That's not just being cautious. I think we see Dejan debut before we see Chicharito back.
Cabral as striker, better than ethan I guess. and I was right, Efrain starting, Ravel and Saldana as our CM's with Klejstache at the tip of the midfield in the #10 role. That starting back 4 though.
No Vasquez or Zubak in squad. Zubak must have picked up an injury. no Dos Santos either. Hope he’s taking care of family stuff.
I'm hoping for the best, but I can't recall a strong Galaxy defensive performance that didn't include either Steres or DePuy, in the last few years.
