- Galaxy head coach Frank Yallop announced recently that the squad will be switching from a 4-4-2 formation to a 4-3-3, with Alan Gordon, Landon Donovan and Nate Jaqua up top. When David Beckham arrives this summer, he is expected to be slotted into the center of midfield.

Great news about LA and Toronto season ticket totals. This was an incredibly successful offseason and one can really feel the momentum gaining.
