And is this the game they get it all right and steal some points on the road? We've got a packed show for you today, so you can excuse us for going around 90-minutes. There is tons of Galaxy news, and it's stuff you need to know before this weekend's game. Hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira talk about all things Galaxy, including why two former players ended up in the Premier League Hall of Fame, looking back on Mike Magee as a goalkeeper and Landon Donovan as the Galaxy's best goalscorer. The guys will also discuss the signing of Rayan Raveloson and why that has the Galaxy shuffling some roster pieces, and what that means for Giancarlo Gonzalez going forward. Plus, are the Galaxy still hunting for more players? We provide some clarification on the Galaxy's "Mystery Man." Plus, how are the Galaxy preparing for international absences, and what tournament have Greg Vanney and his staff been preparing for since the start of the season? And when we have time, Josh will tell stories for money and why he once had Twitter beef with a well-known broadcaster! But the main focus of this episode is getting you through Kevin Cabral's first media availability and learning what Greg Vanney wants to see from the team against Portland. Can Josh keep his prediction streak rolling? Or will Eric crush it with his prediction? We've got a packed show for you, and we can't wait to tell you all of our secrets!

We'll discuss what the defender can bring to the club and why Giancarlo Gonzalez might have some issues. Hosts Josh Guesman and Larry Morgan get you through the glut of news that seeped from the Galaxy this week and get you clued in on where they might be heading for their next signing. Josh will start with his weekly kit update and tell you why an authentic kit should come with all the things the players wear. That includes the sponsor logo and an MLS patch. We'll let you know what the Galaxy are expected to do to fix the problems they've been having with patches and numbers! Then the guys breakdown the contract length of Derrick Williams and talk about how his signing is starting to indicate a trend for Dennis te Kloese and perhaps how Greg Vanney wants to run things. A team that relied so much on International players in 2019 and 2020 suddenly is doing the exact opposite. And did you want to know the Galaxy's preseason schedule? What if we told you it involved Landon Donovan, Bruce Arena, and a trip to Tucson, Arizona? We've got the news details for you that might have you trucking for the southwests deserts. But if you want to know who the Galaxy will face when the season opens up, then you've got some waiting to do. But that might include fans, so get those community kits ready! Finally, Josh and Larry discuss the Galaxy's pursuit of a French winger and why he could check many boxes off for the Galaxy in 2021 and beyond. Is he a diamond in the rough? Or is he just a French Giovani dos Santos? We'll discuss!
