Toronto FC’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alan-Gordon-c4252 eyeing special Los Angeles Galaxy scalp – Major League Soccer news
Toronto FC striker, Alan Gordon is looking ahead to the upcoming game against Los Angeles Galaxy, set to be staged on April 13th at BMO Stadium. The match means more to the player than just a mere statistic. Gordon was a part of the California-based team
from 2004 until 2010 before he was transferred to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chivas-USA-c38798.
The player had spent most of his early days in the western state and a better part of the 7-year career with Los Galacticos, but David Beckham’s acquisition severely restricted his first team chances at the club.
After spending just a solitary year at Chivas, the forward was transferred to the Canadian outfit earlier this year. Gordon is still bitter about the transfer and shows little hesitation in expressing his feelings. Despite avenging his forced move with an
equaliser against Chivas on April 2nd, the player is far from settled, and has set his eyes on the standoff with LA Galaxy to complete the revenge mission.
Competing against LA has always been an important and tough call for every Major League Soccer franchise. However, this time it would be a bit different for the player and Aron Winter, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Toronto-FC-c40744 manager, will hope the Reds benefit from the player’s flame.
According to the player, he has been waiting for the moment to face his former team. “You know that I have that game circled on my calendar – along with Chivas USA – every year.”
After grabbing one point against the Goats earlier this month, the player hopes he can repeat the feat in the Wednesday’s encounter against the Galaxy. Even though the player still feels disappointed regarding http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Los-Angeles-Galaxy-c39818’s decision of letting him
go, he has a soft corner for his former teammates, but winning with TFC is more important to Gordon than anything else.
Currently at 4th position in the Eastern Conference, the reds will move to second in the standings, behind http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Philadelphia-Union-c40231, should they notch three points at home in the upcoming tie. The team has never made it to the MLS playoffs and this
year might be the lucky break the team needs.
Both the teams go into this encounter after having travelled extensively for their previous fixtures. Bruce Arena’s Galaxy travelled to East Coast last week while the Reds had to make a round trip to Western part of the country to face http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/San-Jose-Earthquakes-c40434.
While many players have complained about the travelling involved, Gordon believes it’s all a part of the sport and the teams which make an effort to improve will reap the rewards.
