Los Angeles Galaxy Playing well this Season

Los Angeles Galaxy has not been that bullish at opposition’s ground this season and Steven Gerrard blames the defence for that.

As per Gerrard, in the home games, Galaxy nets so many times that the flaws in their defence remain hidden, but, when they travel and do not strike quite as heavily as they do at the StubHub Center, the defence is exposed and they lose points.

Losing points doesn’t mean that Galaxy has been defeated a lot. It’s actually only one game which has seen them end as the second best.

All the other games, it’s been either a draw or a win, but, it’s that no. of draws that Gerrard has a problem with as he reckons those draws could well have been the wins if not for those soft goals that they have let the opposition add to their names.

Speaking in Chester after Galaxy played their 4th draw in the season; Gerrard was quoted as Saying, “The aim was not to draw the game. It was to win the game which we could not.”

“It’s not to stress that this is a bad result. Of course, this is not because the opposition was of some quality, but, the point is that we have a quality team as well. So, from that perspective, we would have wanted full points.”

“The lesser a team concedes, the more it gives itself the chance of toppling the other team. This is not good enough for silverware to be honest with you. There must be more steel down the backline and there has got to be more no. of clean slates.”

The next visit for Galaxy is of Saputo Stadium where they will be playing Montreal Impact, the Eastern Conference’s top team.
