Galaxy have a Jonathan on top the whole way down

They added two players to the roster this week and look to be adding a couple of more in rapid succession. So what can we deduce from their move so far? On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira battle sunspots and internet outages to bring you the latest news surrounding your favorite team. Are you starting to feel the excitement? Would you too like to be rolled down a hill in a barrel? Josh and Eric will start with the latest developments on Cristian Pavon and the allegations surrounding him. The Galaxy remain interested, and there's some good reason why. Plus, Pavon went out on a limb, which may mean he can't go back to Boca Juniors. So where will he go? And who had the leverage? Then the guys will discuss the signings of Jorge Villafaña and Jonathan Bond to tell you how the Galaxy got the deals done and why they had their eyes on these guys. Of course there was a list involved, and of course the Galaxy were keeping track of them. The guys will also discuss the futures of Jonathan Klinsmann and David Bingham and what effect that might have on the roster. Eric will close things out with some Kit news and tell you why you might want to save those pennies. Don't be slow on this. You're going to regret it. (CORRECTION: JOSH MISTAKENLY SAID THE GALAXY WOULD BE GETTING TWO NEW KITS IN 2021. THIS IS INCORRECT. THE GALAXY WILL BE GETTING A NEW 2ND KIT SUPPOSEDLY IN THE COLOR-WAY WE DESCRIBED ON THE SHOW). Finally, there's some roster talk as the Galaxy still need plenty of reinforcements. But there's reason to believe that they have the room to get it all done! We've got a packed show for you, and we're so glad you joined us! Another show in the books! Even if Eric did his best Elsa impression multiple times.

Problems with Pavon, Araujo moving, and shaking - not stirring - some Galaxy announcements

- SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST: http://cornerofthegalaxy.com/subscribe/ - COG LA GALAXY DISCORD: https://discord.gg/drr9HFZY2P - COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy and their pursuit of Cristian Pavon just hit a significant roadblock. And it's time for the club to hit pause on trying to bring back the best player from the 2020 season. On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter discuss Pavon's future with the club and why it might be a considerable gamble to bring back the team MVP. The guys start with sexual assault allegations that rocked the camp of Pavon over the weekend as the Argentine star was accused by a young woman of sexually assaulting her in the offseason of 2019 in Argentina. Josh and Kevin discuss the difficult situation the club is in now and why the Galaxy can't afford to get this one wrong. Their reputation rides on so much with how they handle this. And is Julian Araujo ready to head overseas? Not so fast, my friends! But don't expect him to be around forever. The heat is ratcheting up around one of the Galaxy's top prospects, and we'll tell you what is happening behind the scenes. Plus, get your tuxedo out. The Galaxy are bringing Jonathan Bond to Los Angeles. We'll talk about the West Brom goalkeeper, and why he's more than just a secret agent -- in fact, we know relatively little about his play! And couple there be more than just a single announcement this week? You bet! Finally, the guys tell you why there might not be any hurry to kick this season off and why the end-of-January start date for camp seems like a pipe dream at this point. Could the MLS season be delayed significantly? We've got a packed show today that gets you up and running on the Galaxy's offseason acquisitions. The roster-building continues, and Greg Vanney has a lot of work to do!

Podcast: Interview with Galaxy head coach Greg Vanney

- SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST: http://cornerofthegalaxy.com/subscribe/ - COG LA GALAXY DISCORD: https://discord.gg/drr9HFZY2P - COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- 2021 has already gotten off to a rough start. On the show, we fought through some audio and video issues, plus we had to figure out a new way to stream the show. It wasn't pretty, but somehow we got it all fixed before we had a great guest on the show. On today's episode, hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira are joined by new LA Galaxy Head Coach Greg Vanney. Vanney will discuss some of his thoughts around his coaching style, why he'll be ready for El Trafico, and where he sees areas for improvement on the Galaxy. And, with a team that has missed the playoffs the last three out of four years, there are lots of suggestions! The guys will also discuss what Vanney's introductory press conference was like and what big things stuck out to the guys about his addition to the team. Does he have the capital to demand he gets his guys? And does he really want Cristian Pavon back? Plus, what's with defenders always becoming coaches? Then the guys will talk about the never-ending contract of Jorgen Skjelvik and why he might actually be gone this time before moving on to Julian Araujo and Sebastian Lletget's international calls. We've got a packed live show to kick off 2021, and hopefully, we can be the distraction everyone knows we all need!

Vanney announced. He's ready to rebuild the Galaxy

- SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST: http://cornerofthegalaxy.com/subscribe/ - COG LA GALAXY DISCORD: https://discord.gg/drr9HFZY2P - COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy have finally announced that Greg Vanney will be their next head coach after several weeks of speculation. And that means the rebuilding can finally begin. On today's show -- held specifically for the Galaxy announcement -- hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter discuss the addition of Vanney to the club and why he made a lot of sense. And we'll get to talk about Vanney's first interview with Kevin just hours before the club made his announcement official. There's a discussion about Vanney wanting the challenge of rebuilding a very broken club and why he sees California as a place to come "home." Plus, there's some good insight into how he could be spending the Galaxy's money in a very uncertain 2021. Additionally, Josh and Kevin will discuss the addition of Dan Calichman to the no. 1 assistant job and why Dominic Kinnear's involvement with the Galaxy might continue but not as a head coach. Would you stay if you were Kinnear? Would you want him if you're Vanney? Plus, there are updates on Cristian Pavon, Jorge Villafana, AJ DeLaGarza, and a lot more. We even made sure to update you on the MLSPA and their problems with MLS and the ownership group. Will the 2021 season also be significantly impacted by Covid-19? Will there even be a season? We've got a lot to discuss in our first show of 2021. And we're glad the Galaxy could finally make the announcement many have been waiting for. If there's a typical start to the 2021 season, the players will be reporting to training camp by the end of the month. Does that make it feel real? Thanks for kicking off another season with us! We're glad you could join us!

Holiday Moats, a Galaxy Coach, and Pavon's Messi Situation

- SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST: http://cornerofthegalaxy.com/subscribe/ - COG LA GALAXY DISCORD: https://discord.gg/drr9HFZY2P - COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy really want Cristian Pavon on their team in 2021. Fans want Pavon on the Galaxy in 2021. And Pavon wants to be on the Galaxy in 2021. But with the official expiration of his loan on December 31, both sides are feeling the pressure. On today's show hosts, Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter, discuss all the details around Pavon's many avenues of staying in LA and why the pressure might continue to rise for both Boca Juniors and the Galaxy as the loan expires. And most of that pressure has to do with both sides feeling a financial pinch from the global pandemic. But first, the guys are diving into the discussion surrounding Lionel Messi's comments about wanting to eventually come to Major League Soccer and why that time is definitely not now. Would the Galaxy even be players in a race for Messi? Or would he instead go to Miami? And Josh and Kevin discuss some fun hypotheticals that take into account Pavon's situation as well. However, the main focus is on Pavon and why the end-of-the-year deadline is far from a deadline. And why the Galaxy may actually want to continue this game of chicken with Boca Juniors as Pavon's wages start hitting the Boca checkbook. Could that get some movement out of this deal? And why should the Galaxy be willing to walk away? Finally, Josh and Kevin discuss when the Galaxy should make their coaching and player announcements and why there may be a small surprise or two along the way. We've got a great podcast ready for you during this holiday moat, and we're glad you could join us. Everyone at CoG is wishing you an excellent 2021, and may you and your family stay safe and healthy during this pandemic! We'll be here to bring you all the Galaxy info you can handle!

Will it come before the Christmas Holiday break? Or could we be looking at something in 2021? On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter discuss the latest news, rumors, and information surrounding the Galaxy and why we all may be waiting for a while for them to deliver our gifts! The guys start with the latest reports that put Greg Vanney on the cusp of becoming the Galaxy's head coach. Could Dominic Kinnear still find a way to get in front of Vanney? Sure! In fact, let's not count any chickens before a Laker game, right? If this doesn't remind you of the Caleb Porter situation from 2018, then you haven't been paying attention. Plus, Josh and Kevin will tell you why it will absolutely not be the guy who just got fired from Club America. We're not even going to mention his name! Finally, the guys talked about Julian Araujo and how Italy may be calling for the defender this winter. And why the Galaxy lost out on some money when they brought Araujo up to the senior team. We're keeping you updated during the slow time! Welcome to our only podcast his week!!!

Coaching news, player moves, and Galaxy dudes

But don't worry, we're not going anywhere! And on this show, we're getting you an update on the coaching search -- a big update -- and touching on some players that could be finding their way into an LA Galaxy kit in 2021! Hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira are back to celebrate with some holiday cheer and talk about the Galaxy's latest news, moves, and dudes! We promise the show will better than that last sentence. The guys will start with the departure of Joe Corona in the MLS Expansion Draft and give their verdict on why he was a good player for the Galaxy, but it was predictable that he was going to Austin. And if we knew that, then you could bet the Galaxy knew that as well. The guys will touch on the rumors of Jorge Villafaña and Miguel Ibarra to the club and tell you why they seem similar, but one makes more sense than the other. But are the Galaxy just going after 30-year-old players now? But the big news on tonight's show is what the club is doing to find their next head coach. We'll discuss the breaking news and tell you why things may be more put together than you're being led to believe. And the timing of these things is important. Very important! Josh and Eric will also give you the best goal in MLS history, some trivia around it, and highlight one of the newest contributors for CoG, Ramiro Lopez. Ramiro has a new article out with some analysis on who the Galaxy might target as a backup striker -- and he's offering it up for FREE! It's a great way to close out the live shows for 2020. Our next live show is scheduled for January 7, but we'll have Monday night shows ready for you throughout the holiday break. So grab some eggnog or your favorite adult beverage and join us for some fun Galaxy-talk!
