What do You Think the New Galaxy Jersey will Look Like?

The LA Galaxy announced Friday that, in collaboration with adidas, they will debut a third jersey in July. The team will wear their new jersey for the first time on Monday, July 4 against Seattle Sounders FC at The Home Depot Center (the match kicks off at 7:30 p.m. and will be broadcasted on ESPN2, ESPN Deportes, and ESPN3.com).

The third jersey will be revealed three days prior to the game on July 1st. Fans will be able to begin pre-ordering the jersey exclusively online via www.teamlastore.com.

The official unveiling of the Galaxy’s third jersey will be held at an exclusive VIP event in downtown LA July 1st. This will be the first opportunity for fans to view the new jersey. Additional details will be released in the near future.

What do you all think the new third jersey will look like? Since they already have a white and a blue, maybe the new one will be gold/yellow to follow through with the team colors... that's my guess!

Rumor of the Day: David to Stay as Galaxy Coach After Contract Ends this Year

By Tom Hopkinson of The People

David Beckham will be offered the chance to stay on as a player-coach at Los Angeles Galaxy when his five-year deal expires in November.

Becks, 36, reaches the end of the huge contract he signed when he left Real Madrid for LA in 2007, at the end of the current MLS Season.

The Galaxy will offer Beckham the chance to play on for another term, while also taking more of a role in Bruce Arena’s backroom team.

And the new deal would allow Beckham to return to European football from January to April next year.

Beckham spent three months training with Tottenham last season and had spells at AC Milan in the previous two seasons.

Beckham and his advisors have had initial discussions over his future, but nothing has yet been finalised. As People Sport revealed back in 2009, Beckham has a clause in his MLS contract which lets him buy a franchise once he hangs up his boots.

And he and Simon Fuller – who looks after Beckham’s business affairs – are still keen for that to happen.

Becks is Disappointed with Scoreless Tie Last Night

Last night, the Los Angeles Galaxy took on DC United at the Home Depot center. The end result was a disappointing tied score of 0-0.

Even though David was appointed Captain in last night's match as Landon Donovan was away with USA duties, he still was extremely dissatisfied with the way the team played. "We have to forget this performance," Beckham said. “It was a disappointing performance, no matter who's not playing."

Head coach Bruce Arena wasn't thrilled either: "I think our performance tonight was totally poor," Galaxy coach Bruce Arena said, adding that Donovan's absence had "nothing to do with" the team’s poor display.

The Galaxy defense did its job once again though, posting the team’s fourth consecutive shutout and earning a point for the MLS leaders (8-2-6, 30 points).

"Shutting them out was probably the only positive tonight," midfielder David Beckham said.

David Beckham to Wear Galaxy Captain Band Tomorrow

The LA Galaxy will host D.C. United tomorrow (Friday - June 3rd) and they will also honor local Southern California military men and women with 1,000 free tickets.

The Galaxy will once again be short-handed this season with Landon Donovan and Donovan Ricketts participating in the Gold Cup this weekend. With Landon Donovan out of the picture, the captain of the Galaxy will be David Beckham. With Ricketts also playing for the United States, the Galaxy will lean on Josh Saunders to pick up the slack between the sticks as the Galaxy goalkeeper.

This is the second meeting between the D.C. United and the Los Angeles Galaxy. The first match resulted in a tie when the two played in Washington D.C. With this match taking place at the Home Depot Center in Carson, the Galaxy will still have an edge despite missing two of their most important stars.

Juan Pablo Angel will have to step up in this match and give support to Beckham. Chad Barrett is another Los Angeles Galaxy scorer that will need to come to the fore front.

The Galaxy-United tilt is the featured MLS game of the week on the Fox Soccer Channel and the star of the show will undoubtedly be David Beckham. With Landon Donovan away at the Gold Cup, it is the perfect opportunity for the Galaxy to promote some of their other incredibly talented stars.
