MLS Footnotes: Winless LA Galaxy not sweating historically slow start
The LA Galaxy is still looking for its first win of the season. Meanwhile, St. Louis City SC is enjoying a dream start to its debut MLS seas...APRIL 1, 2023
Dejan Joveljic - Three shots in return Joveljic generated three shots (zero on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 defeat versus Seattle Sounders FC.
Impact Joveljic started in his first match back since spending the international break with Serbia. He has failed to score a goal since the first game of the season. Because of his struggles, he will likely return to the bench once Chicharito returns from injury.

Marky Delgado - Four shots in loss Delgado generated four shots (zero on goal), six crosses (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 2-1 loss against Seattle Sounders FC. In addition, he was given a yel...
Impact Delgado recorded a season-high of shots, but failed to get one on target Saturday. He is, however, averaging 2.2 shots a match with 11 crosses in the last five contests.
APRIL 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Douglas Costa - Eight crosses in return Costa registered eight crosses (two accurate) and five corners in Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Seattle Sounders FC.
Impact Costa made his season debut after missing the first four matches with a calf injury. He was extremely impressive in his return, totaling eight crosses and five corners in just 12 minutes of play. The forward will likely return to the lineup for next weekend's game against Houston, given his experience and the team's current struggles.
APRIL 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jalen Neal - Nets first career goal Neal scored one goal to go with three shots (one on target) in Saturday's 2-1 loss versus Seattle Sounders FC.
Impact Neal bagged his first career goal with the team, which is rare coming from the center back position. He has a total of 18 clearances so far, which brings his average to 3.6 a match.
APRIL 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jonathan Klinsmann - Allows two in loss Klinsmann recorded one save and allowed two goals with a clearance in Saturday's 2-1 defeat against Seattle Sounders FC.
Impact Klinsmann was back in the lineup after dealing with a finger injury earlier in the week. He was only able to make one save while allowing two goals Saturday. With Jonathan Bond dealing with a shoulder injury, the keeper will babysit the goal until he returns.
APRIL 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jonathan Klinsmann - Starting Saturday Klinsmann (finger) is in the starting XI for Saturday's clash with Seattle.
Impact Klinsmann returns to the starting XI for Saturday's clash despite picking up a late finger injury. Evidently some protective equipment is enough for the goalkeeper to test his finger in a rare start with Jonathan Bond (shoulder) sidelined.
APRIL 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Douglas Costa - Returns to bench Costa (calf) is on the bench for Saturday's clash with Seattle.
Impact Costa was upgraded to questionable earlier in the week and now returns to the bench. The winger will look to test his calf with a late cameo, likely competing with Memo Rodriguez for the starting role moving forward.
APRIL 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jonathan Klinsmann - May have picked up an injury Klinsmann might be questionable for Saturday's clash against the Sounders due to an injury, The Striker's Alex Ruiz reported Friday.
Impact According to Ruiz, the Galaxy made a loan move for Serbian goalkeeper Novak Micovic Friday because of an injury to Klinsmann. That has not been confirmed by the team yet, but if true it would be a huge blow for Klinsmann as he just kept a clean sheet in his first start of the season last weekend while Jonathan Bond is out with a shoulder injury.
MARCH 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Novak Micovic - Loaned to Los Angeles Micovic has joined the Galaxy on a season-long loan from Serbian side FK Cukaricki, the club announced Friday.
Impact Micovic has kept 14 clean sheets in 36 appearances across all competitions for Serbian SuperLiga side Cukaricki, and the 21-year-old goalkeeper is now joining the Galaxy on-loan for the 2023 campaign. He will likely be competing with Jonathan Klinsmann to be the backup to Jonathan Bond (shoulder) in goal once he obtains his visa.

Morris and the Seattle Sounders visit the LA Galaxy

Douglas Costa - Upgraded to questionable Costa (calf) is listed as questionable in LA's injury report for Saturday's clash against the Sounders.
Impact Costa is yet to feature this season for the Galaxy due to a calf injury, but he will be facing a fitness test in order to be available against Seattle this weekend. Efrain Alvarez and Memo Rodriguez have been filling in on the right wing in his absence.
MARCH 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jonathan Bond - Still out against Seattle Bond (shoulder) will not be available for Saturday's clash against the Sounders.
Impact Bond was initially expected to miss 2-4 weeks after suffering a shoulder injury against the Whitecaps on March 19, so he's still on track with the recovery timeline. Jonathan Klinsmann should continue as the starter in goal until Bond can return.

Gaston Brugman - Takes three shots against Portland Brugman took three shots (two on target) and created two chances in Saturday's 0-0 draw against the Timbers. He also made three clearances, three interceptions and won four of six...
Impact Brugman was excellent on both sides of the ball against Portland on Saturday, but his side had to settle for another scoreless draw as the Galaxy are still yet to win a game this season. Brugman has tallied seven shots (three on target) and five chances created through four starts in defensive midfield.
MARCH 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Tyler Boyd - Creates two chances in draw Boyd took a shot on target and created two chances in Saturday's 0-0 draw against the Timbers. He also made a clearance in the match.
Impact Boyd got a second consecutive start on the left wing Saturday, and he's tallied three shots (one on target) and two chances created across the two games. He could continue competing with Memo Rodriguez in the position for the time being, but should eventually return to the bench once Chicharito (hamstring) and Douglas Costa (calf) return from injury.
MARCH 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Raheem Edwards - Keeps clean sheet in draw Edwards made three clearances, a block and two interceptions in Saturday's 0-0 draw against the Timbers. He also took a shot and won three of four tackles in the match.
Impact Edwards helped the Galaxy to a second clean sheet of the season on Saturday. Edwards has started all four of his team's MLS matches this season at left-back, but new signing Julian Aude could challenge him for the position.
MARCH 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Riqui Puig - Takes three shots in draw Puig had three shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Portland Timbers. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 49th minute.
Impact The former Barcelona prospect controls the tempo for the Galaxy in midfield, but he was unable to make a significant impact in this contest. Puig has yet to score or assist this season, but he has registered 11 shots (three on target) and four chances created through four outings thus far.
MARCH 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Memo Rodriguez - Active despite draw Rodriguez recorded three shots (zero on goal), six crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Portland Timbers. In addition, he was given a yellow card...
Impact The game ended goalless but that didn't prevent Rodriguez from being a fantasy asset due to his strong contributions across the board. He is firmly entrenched as a starter for the Galaxy and should remain in the XI when they take on the Sounders this weekend.
MARCH 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Preston Judd - Takes five shots in scoreless draw Judd recorded five shots (zero on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Portland Timbers.
Impact Judd made the first MLS start of his career, but it was due to the team's lack of depth upfront since Chicharito (hamstring) was ruled out and Dejan Joveljic is away on international duty. Judd looked active in this one, but he's expected to move back to the bench for the weekend matchup against the Sounders, as both Chicharito and Joveljic should be back by then.
MARCH 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jonathan Klinsmann - Keeps clean sheet as starter Klinsmann recorded one save and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Portland Timbers.
Impact Klinsmann got the start between the posts due to the injury sustained by Jonathan Bond (shoulder), and he responded well to earn a shutout. His role for Saturday's matchup against Seattle will be tied to Bond's recovery, but if the latter ends up being ruled out again, Klinsmann could find himself in the starting XI again -- though Seattle represents a tougher test than Portland.
