Trust me, I get it. The last thing anyone really wants to hear right now is more hopeful positives about the “potential” of the future. Another, ‘we’ll get them next year’ rah-rah column to help swallow the bitter pill that was the conclusion of the 2022 season. This isn't that, all least not really. In terms of securing their sixth MLS Cup, the LA Galaxy failed.
A club with the standard that they have is expected to be better than semifinal exits, or multi-year playoff droughts. While if many are honest with themselves, they probably didn't see Galaxy finish this well back in July, it doesn't make it any less bitter having to watch the squad go out in the semifinals, especially to the rivals.
