The fact that Alan Gordon has made 245 MLS appearances, since making his debut with LA Galaxy in September, 2004, is testament to his character, and one which he displays every time he steps onto a soccer field.
For Gordon, life as a professional soccer player was not handed to him on a plate. Everything he has achieved has been due to grit, determination, drive, passion, loyalty, and an inner belief, and it is those qualities which have served him well these past 12 years.
He was originally selected by LA Galaxy in the 2004 MLS SuperDraft.
