Returning Donovan Ricketts is LA's renaissance man
Lost in the fanfare that surrounded the arrival of Steven Gerrard and the signing of Giovani dos Santos last month was the way the defending MLS champion L.A. Galaxy handled a potentially devastating loss in goal.
Starting goalkeeper Jaime Penedo was demanding a contract extension, so coach and general manager Bruce Arena had a difficult decision to make: He could either force the Panamanian to keep playing under the deal he'd signed in February and keep an unhappy player in the net, or appease Penedo and possibly set a dangerous precedent.
