Yes, it's very disappointing and frustrating and "stupefying" that our LA Galaxy was not able to win. The win could have helped eased some burden off our backs. I swear - I hope Ruud, Cobi, Trevor, Chris, Armando, and Paul truly understands and accepts how URGENT & CRITICAL it is to get "rock solid" performances from ALL of our LA Galaxy team members. This year - our LA Galaxy team cannot afford to be lax or be hap-hazard about the games they have to play. I believe the great majority of MLS teams have greatly added talent to their teams and solidified it. Please, we cannot spend anymore time in the bottom "recesses" of the MLS Conference table. We need more talent & depth in the Midfield! Our back line is getting better. Sean Franklin & Julian Valentin are a GREAT presence at center. What about our Left & Right wings? Chris Klein (to my amazement, surprise, and happiness) is holding his own in the Right Defensive side. But, can he be doing that each & every game for the rest of the MLS season??? I'm sorry - as much as I like Micheal Gavin & Mike Randolph (both, speedy & quick players) - they just have not had the experience & seasoning to FIRMLY, CONVINCINGLY, EFFECTIVELY, and CONTINUOUSLY hold the Left-Wing Defensively. Ely Allen is trying his hardest to wiggle through and help out from the Left Midfield. Alvaro Pires is truly a BULL & a much needed ball-winner in Midfield. I am so happy to see him win balls back for us! Great job, Alvaro!!! But, as both Landon & David has said - to win games is to PUT in the goals. To secure a 2 - 0 lead by the end of first half. And, keep structure, firmness, shape, and posession in the second half! How is our LA Galaxy going to achieve this? Please coaches - do the homework... Take a deep look at other MLS teams to find out how much each team has spent on deepening their Midfield. In MLS, Minute 25 - 45 & Minute 65 - 90 MUST be decidedly won in the Midfield!!!charlesj27https://www.blogger.com/profile/12057293703738468345noreply@blogger.com
