A lot is happening right now in the administration of the game of football. There's a proposal for a Premier League salary cap, and we discuss what exactly this means, why it's so very different from PSR, and whether it stands any chance of succeeding. And there's the government regulator, which we have both become convinced will not happen in the UK government has any sense. And there's referee discourse, which has sufficiently annoyed us that we have to talk about it again. Support th...

BUY NOW! http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP - SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST: http://cornerofthegalaxy.com/subscribe/ - COG LA GALAXY DISCORD: https://discord.gg/drr9HFZY2P COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- What happened when the LA Galaxy ended the Kevin Cabral project? And how much money did it cost the team, and will it cost the team? On today's show, host Josh Guesman talks about the Galaxy's failed Kevin Cabral project and why the money they spent to call it quits was a significant amount of money. Plus, what's the added part to the deal that will still cost the Galaxy going forward? Josh will dig into the salary cap implications, talk about how this helps to offset the fine MLS levied on the club, and explain why the Galaxy still owes a considerable amount to the league before they can call it all square. What does having an open Designated Player spot mean for the Galaxy heading into their only international window of the year? Josh will also discuss the Galaxy's trip to Vietnam and why Victor Vazquez was on an airplane today. There's a good chunk of news to cover! So thanks for joining us!

But what changed in the second half that made the Galaxy the better team? On today's show, host Josh Guesman is here to talk some Galaxy, and MLS Soccer School is in session. Josh will start by diving into the 1-1 draw with Minnesota United on Wednesday night and talk about a lineup with Douglas Costa, Sam Grandsir, and Kevin Cabral should have been more dangerous. And where did Costa go in the first half, and why was he so much better in the second half? The offense also showed its first signs of life in a couple of games. Can that be attributed to Victor Vazquez and Sacha Kljestan? Or is that about Cabral and Rayan Raveloson leaving the field? But unless you've been living under a rock, you know that the Major League Soccer Players Association released the first of two salary dumps for every player in MLS. That means we can take a look at the Galaxy roster and give you some background behind a plethora of raises and why we can't calculate the salary cap (budget) for any MLS team. And the league likes it that way. Finally, Josh will look ahead to Sunday's game with the Houston Dynamo, which has the Galaxy as HUGE favorites, according to our favorite website. So do the signs of life from the offense carry over to Sunday? Will Kljestan and Vazquez be back to spur on the offense? And does Vanney need to make a decision on Costa, Cabral, and Grandsir?

And when we didn't get the chance to do this show last year, we know a little piece of you died! Well, today is your lucky day because it's the MLS Salary Show! On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira are getting you ready for another big weekend for the LA Galaxy as they get ready to welcome Austin to Dignity Health Sports Park for the very first time. Can the Galaxy, as favorites, get the results at home against a good team that they should beat? Are you nervous about pretending to believe that statement? Josh and Eric will start with a bit of nod to last week's El Tráfico before diving headfirst into both the 2020 and 2021 MLS salary release that happened early this morning. What are the big surprises when it comes to the 2020 team that maybe you're glad you didn't know? And how much was Yony Gonzalez's one-year contract worth if he would have stayed with the club? Plus, Jorgen Skjelvik finally disappeared off the 2021 list. Plus, when you look across the league, who are the biggest spenders? And where do the Galaxy fall when comparing positional investment? Will there be too many numbers to handle? Can you guess who spent the most money in MLS so far? Josh will fill you in about the Galaxy's media call on Thursday and what we learned about Derrick Williams and Los Angeles. Plus, injury updates and great tidbits from Greg Vanney and Julian Araujo. Finally, Eric has your dramatic game preview, and he got this one right! Right on the nose! Thanks for joining us for a very long episode of Corner of the Galaxy. And we'll see you at the stadium on Saturday! For those watching from home, you'll be back inside very soon, and we can't wait to see you!
