Well talk about a team that blows up......

Ruud Gullit resigns and the GM Alexei Lalas fired........

1 player does not a team make......

Good luck with that.
I suggest your wife ships her wardrobe via container ship, it will work out a bit cheaper.

The Galaxy, led by English star David Beckham and Landon Donovan, are on a seven-match winless streak as they play Chivas USA on Thursday night.
wouldn't that be a losing streak anywhere else?

After Ruud's dreadlocks and Alexei's ginger beard and hair there can only be one man for the job. It has to go to Carlos Valderama.

Cobi Jones is no Valderama, but it is certainly in the right spirit.

I went to my first MLS game at the weekend. NY versus DC. It was really bad. I'm glad that they are trying, but they have a LONG way to go.

Re: LA Galaxy
 
That's a shocker, I was expecting one or the other to go, not both. Cobi Jones is an interesting choice, has experience in Europe plus knows the MLS well. How he will do translating that to a managerial role will be interesting. Ruud didn't do himself too many favors by coming in with a completely new and not well suited system. The league seems to be going back a few steps recently, hopefully it will take a jump forward soon.

Only if they didn't draw any games during that time...

LOL - hilarious.
How long until beckham follows ??

Ruuuuddddd was always a strange choice in my book - he never really convinced at any point during his managerial career, and Lalas also appeared to be a bit of an impostor as the man in-charge.

Hopefully the whole outfit doesn't implode, but no doubt the dutchman will have helped himself to a few quid on his way out the door.

Whoops.....missed that one. Probably due to the fact that I don't give a Rat's Ass about MLS or Beckham.:eek:
