But we weren't expecting anything so soon. We're just expecting them to take their time, check off the interviews they already have on the books, and make a decision between two guys who you can't go wrong with, right? Well, maybe not! On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter discuss why the Galaxy may not have even contacted Greg Vanney yet, and why that all makes some perfect sense. Plus, did Vanney hold off on signing a contract with Toronto because the Galaxy made some coaching moves? Josh and Kevin will dive into the U.S. Men's National Team call-ups for Julian Araujo and Efrain Alvarez and discuss why both players seem to be taking it in stride. And why a Mexico and USA tug-of-war might be great for the Galaxy. Then the guys are off to scoff at rumors that have Jonathan dos Santos moving to a team that his brother might be on his way out of and why Memo Ochoa is suddenly a guy who could be in line for the Galaxy goalkeeping spot -- but not really. And would you want Patrick Viera as your head coach? Why the man who would command attention in the locker room should be on the Galaxy's list. We've got a quick 60 minutes of Galaxy-talk, and we're glad you could join us. Now stay inside, and enjoy your Galaxy-less MLS Cup the way 2020 would want you to -- alone!

On this week's episode, Sounders midfielder Cristian Roldan joins Brad Evans and Steve Zakuani to help preview on the squad's upcoming western conference clash vs Minnesota United. The hosts rewind back to Tuesday's big semifinal win against FC Dallas, and give their takes on what to watch for at Lumen Field in the conference final.

One candidate for their head coaching vacancy, and he's a former Galaxy player. What made Greg Vanney leave Toronto after a very successful run, and what could detract from what seems like a perfect person to fill the role for the struggling Galaxy? On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira discuss the Galaxy's clear target for their coaching vacancy. Does he check all the boxes? Or does Vanney have some things working against him? After all, he got one MLS Cup with the most expensive roster in the league over multiple seasons. And did Vanney have a ton of help from the General Manager's side of things? We'll discuss Tim Lieweke's involvement with MLSE and why that certainly has something to do with his success. But the bottom line may be that Galaxy fans will need to have patience with a coach that loves to build things. And with the Galaxy, he'll need to make them back into an MLS dominant power. Plus, the guys discuss AJ DeLaGarza's future with the club and why he might be another piece to add in the offseason. Does the locker room need help? Is DeLaGarza that guy? And finally, the guys discuss some roster-filling signings of youngsters and a rumor that could see another Galaxy DP get erased from the 17 names already cemented on the team. It's a packed show for an offseason without much movement. Let's get to it before we all remember that the Galaxy should still be in the playoffs.

This is definitely the worst episode of ACES Radio ever. Seriously. Our recording bot jacked the audio up, and we repaired it as best we could. It sounds like a junior high AV club spliced it together while on a Mountain Dew bender. There's a lad check-in, recap of Crew vs. Nashville, talk of underdogs, YOUR questions of the week, score predictions, and Sean and Bront trying to cheat the prediction standings again. Get stoned off your ass and give it a listen, you might like it.

Musa and Ryan reflect on the midweek round of Champions League fixtures via the mailbag. Before they do, they big-up Stephanie Frappart, who became the first woman to referee a men’s Champions League fixture, after she took charge for Juventus vs. Dynamo Kiev on Wednesday (04:55). They then discuss a wonderful assist in the Lokomotiv Moscow vs. Red Bull Salzburg game, as well as the other game in the group, which saw Atlético Madrid draw with Bayern (07:10).

But to start things off, hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter, are talking about the US Men's National Team calling-up three Galaxy players. And while Sebastian Lletget is the most seasoned of the players headed towards the December 9th matchup with El Salvador in Miami, the real focus is on Efrain Alvarez and Julian Araujo. Both Galaxy players are now in a tug-of-war between the United States and Mexico. What could this mean for both youngsters as they head into 2021? And what does the schedule congestion look like with the Olympics being thrown into the mix? The guys will then talk about some MLS rescheduling, and what matchups have Galaxy ties as the playoffs come close to reaching their conclusion? Could a Bruce Arena and Caleb Porter matchup show Galaxy fans what could have been? Finally, Josh and Kevin discuss the roster overhaul that started today with some decisions on options. They'll discuss what changes, if any, the Galaxy have already committed to and why one name is left off this list but is still technically a Galaxy player. Plus, an update on where the Galaxy are in their search for a new head coach. Will interviews this week lead to a final answer for the club? We've got a great show lined up for you. A lot of Galaxy-talk headed your way!
