Will Chivas USA make the playoffs?

By: Alex | Comments 2 Comments

Twelve points available. Seven points guarantees a spot. Zero points eliminates the team.

Progress

By: Alex | Comments 5 Comments

Chivas USA took three points at the HDC against the Wizards Saturday.

The good.
Alecko Eskandarian. Four goals in seven games, only four of these seven games were starts.
Maykel Galindo played. Even injured and rusty, the guy is awesome. His attacking runs and style of agressive play is missed. I can’t imagine what this season would [...]

Success in Salt Lake

By: Alex | Comments No Comments

Chivas USA walked away with a victory on the road against Real Salt Lake.

Not the prettiest game, but a win none the less. It was a tough fight for both teams, as both teams played tight defensive soccer. The game could have gone either way, with neither team controlling the pitch.
The Good:
Lots of friendly faces [...]

By: Alex | Comments 5 Comments

Wow, here we are. Real Salt Lake and Chivas USA, 6 pointer on our hands.

First question is “Who is available?” Looking on the injury list, It looks surprisingly light. Four people out and three more maybes. What? Does that mean we can put a decent team on the field? One that could compete with the [...]
