Frank Yallop Already On Hot Seat?

I was just reading an Andrea Canales article on LASoccerNews.com about Galaxy head coach Frank Yallop and what is expected of him this season. After only two games, the team already has to dig themselves out of a small hole.

When asked about Yallop, Galaxy general manager Alexi Lalas said, "He'd be the first person to tell you that he understands the expectations and he understands the job of head coach of the Galaxy is very different than any other team in the league in terms of the pressure and in terms of the high standards that we've set here... I fully expect him to live up to and surpass that (high) standard."

Lalas has fired two coaches in his three stints as a general manager, including current USMNT head coach Bob Bradley, who lost his job with New York/New Jersey MetroStars when Lalas was sheriff in town.
