CARSON, Calif. – The adage ‘less is more’ seems to be paying dividends for Jonathan dos Santos.
With 10 games under his belt, the central midfielder is beginning to find his stride with the LA Galaxy. Against Real Salt Lake, dos Santos enjoyed one of his better outings alongside central midfield partner Jermaine Jones as he completed more than 90 percent of his passes – creating a team-high four scoring chances.
Head coach Sigi Schmid credited dos Santos success with his decision to place the Mexican international deeper in midfield, allowing him to use his sublime vision of the game to exploit pockets behind the 10-man Salt Lake defense.
