It's hard to tell how negotiations with the mediator have gone the last couple days, but both sides have agreed to keep talking. It is also unsure when talks will resume, but the regular season is nearly here. One player, Toronto FC's Nick Garcia, intimated a strike could be near if there's no deal by March 25, the date of the season opener."We are united as a union and if we need to strike, we will," declared Garcia, one of TFC's two union reps. Garcia added later: "We're anticipating not having the season starting [on time]. As of now, for...
Seattle Sounders 3 hours agoLos Angeles Daily News — For several years, the Chivas USA midfield has been the most stable position. With Sacha Kljestan, Jesse Marsch and Paulo Nagamura holding down their spots, it was also a tough task for a young player to break through for playing time.

Los Angeles Galaxy 5 hours agoSounders FC Blog | Seattle Times — I caught up with invitee Tye Perdido after training on Wednesday to see how things are going. The physical forward has certainly done well so far to impress the coaches and extend his time with the team for as long as possible. The 6-foot-1 Hawaiian is not hard to find out on the pitch either with some impressive hair. * * * (What's your training schedule like for this week?) I'm going to be here for just this week. I'm on spring break so I was able to get out for this week. I'll probably be back in school for the next two months just until I graduate and then hopefully be back here tr...

United 7 hours ago100 Percent Soccer | Los Angeles Daily News — Galaxy 1 Puntarenas 0 The second 45 minutes was better than the first and the Costa Ricans probably had the better of the chances with speedy counter attacks that caught the Galaxy back four flatfooted on several occasions, until Chris...
Los Angeles Galaxy 7 hours ago100 Percent Soccer | Los Angeles Daily News — Galaxy 0 Puntarenas 0 Well, that was a fairly ghastly 45 minutes. To say the Galaxy dominated the half is an understatement; Puntarenas managed to get over the halfway line all of three times by my count. The closest the...
Los Angeles Galaxy 7 hours agoSounders FC Blog | Seattle Times — My little digital camera's battery died halfway through practice, so I was only able to get a couple semi-usable shots. The team did an unconventional scrimmage to start training with some make-shift goals in the middle of the field. There was a fifth goalkeeper in camp but I completely forgot his name -- I heard he trained with the club a little last season, but I wouldn't expect him to contend for a roster spot. Next up the team practiced finishing and defending corner-kicks from Freddie Ljungberg (above), who whipped in crosses from both sides of the field. Training wrapped up with some ...
