Portland Timbers Briefly

Manager Phil Neville is looking for answers to stop his team’s skid and is looking forward to a better season at Providence Park and on the road. Still, this team is looking forward to making amends with its fan base and to get back into the win column.

With the state of disarray, the team has been playing poorly, lately. The mood isn’t positive, and for manager Neville, if wins don’t come soon; he may be leading his foot out the door.

LA Galaxy Briefly

Manager Greg Vanney isn’t a happy man after the team opened the wallet, but the team still hasn’t delivered, and it is looking for answers, as the absence of Ricky Puig is making the team lose hope and prompting questions about when the Spaniard will return to the lineup.

As the team readies for a trip on the road, the way this team can deliver will be seen come this Sunday, March 22^nd, for a match scheduled at 1:45 pm PST, and the way this team is playing lately, with just four points, is something to be seen.

Man, this team needs Ricky Puig for sure!
