The Galaxy have yet to win a match this season
After winning the cup last season, the Galaxy haven't been able to replicate their success from last season. It's early, but it's still very concerning. So far this season, the Galaxy has yet to win a match. They are 0-2-4 and are just coming off a loss vs Orlando City 2-1 on Saturday. They are at the bottom of the League as of this article.
Head coach Greg Vanney is under some pressure and is facing increasing scrutiny. With high expectations for a franchise like the Galaxy, who have the most cups in the MLS at 10, their early struggles could put his job in jeopardy despite winning it all last season. His tactics have come under fire. The team has looked disorganized defensively, often conceding late goals due to poor positioning and lack of communication. His reluctance to make major adjustments has only worsened the situation. If the poor results continue, Vanney could find himself on the hot seat sooner rather than later.
One of the biggest issues plaguing the Galaxy has been their defensive struggles. The backline, featuring veterans and younger players alike, has failed to maintain structure, allowing opponents to capitalize on mistakes. Set-piece defending has been particularly woeful, with the team conceding multiple goals from corners and free kicks. Without significant improvement in this area, LA Galaxy’s problems will persist.
While the defense has been an issue, the attack has also struggled to find its rhythm. Riqui Puig, the team’s creative engine, has shown flashes of brilliance but lacks consistency. Dejan Joveljić has been unable to convert key chances, leaving the team without a reliable goal-scorer. New signings have yet to make a significant impact, raising concerns about roster construction.
