LA Galaxy started the season in a great way, however, their recent form does not guarantee a good continuation in the table. LA Galaxy have not won a single game in their last 3 games which includes 2 losses and a draw in the MLS. Moreover, their last win in the league was against their next opponent, Austin FC, as they won the game with a score of 0-1 playing away. The American manager, Greg Vanney, should take control of his team and use his stars to make the necessary adjustments and put his team back on the right track.
