According to my sources and media outlets, Tim Leiweke is close to firing both GM Alexi Lalas and manager Ruud Gullit. Several players of the team's roster is likely to quit at the end of the season.
For me the problem is, AEG is looking at building a superstar side, but the thing is they can't afford to bring them to LA because of the salary cap. MLS if they want to improve the quality of the league, have to raise the salary cap and roster spots in order to see LA Galaxy really be the flagship franchise of the Major League Soccer. The way things goes now in Los Angeles, MLS might want to expand but they have to look at their GIANT franchise.

Getting rid of Lalas is a great idea, getting rid of Ruud is moronic. He's done wonders for that teams offense, the problem is that they don't have great defenders. They are the worst or close to the worst defense in the MLS, how can you blame Ruud for that? He can only do so much with what he has.
I'm pretty sure Ruud won't get canned and this two week talk is directed to Lalas who has failed everywhere he has been. LA desperately need to get rid of Ruiz to free up some money to get some half-way decent defenders.
