Bad news on the injury front for the LA Galaxy. It seems that the horrible year for the defending MLS Cup champs just keeps getting worse. They reacquired Edson Buddle before the season after he was released from his German side. It's been a tough year, as he's only scored 2 goals.
He missed the Galaxy's US Open Cup loss to the Carloina Railhawks despite making the trip. Yesterday the Galaxy announced that Buddle will miss the next 3-6 weeks after having knee surgery. Oops. They are know without both Buddle and Robbie Keane at least until Ireland is eliminated from Euro 2012. Plus it honestly doesn't seem like the Ireland Captain is that enamored with MLS in the first place, so I wouldn't be surprised to see him exit in the summer transfer window.
I'm not a Galaxy fan in the slightest, but the Puddle wishes Buddle a speedy recovery. He is a very good player, and the league is at it's best when the best players are on the pitch. On a side note, Galaxy midfielder Dan Keat (who?) will also miss up to six weeks with a knee injury.
