Welcome to today's episode of Soccer Morning on Backheel.

Eric Gomez then comes on the show to look at Mexico's latest roster & the epic Super Clasico from last weekend.

It's another packed show talking about your LA Galaxy. Your hosts Josh Guesman and Wendy Thomas will walk you through the disappointing result in Denver. Was the defense to blame for their almost perfect performance against Colorado? Or was leaving Marco Pappa unmarked a sign of bigger issues for this LA Galaxy back line? What did you think of Brian Rowe's goalkeeping performance? And what did you make of the LA Galaxy's offensive numbers? Is one shot enough? Or should we throw out the numbers in order to understand that LA did create some chances? The game vs Colorado probably opens up more questions than it answers. Then Josh and Wendy will turn their focus to the California Clasíco. It's the very first rivalry matchup in 2016 and San Jose is coming off two home wins that has them sitting atop of the Western Conference. With some dangerous players will the LA Galaxy's defense be stretched vs the Earthquakes? Or is the home form of San Jose just a fallacy? And what formation will Bruce Arena trot out against San Jose? Will Zardes finally get the start up top that everyone wants? Who's going to create in the midfield? And will Steven Gerrard be able to replicate his performance against Colorado? It's going to be a great game. Your hosts will also update you on injuries, team news, and all the new parking information the Galaxy have just released. We've got nearly 60 minutes of LA Galaxy talk and we can't wait to get to it!

New York is shut out and shut down for the second straight week. Can the Red Bulls turn it around against high-flying Houston? Felipe is our guest. Super emails and one super call-in to finish up.

We've got another great CoG: From the Box and we'll be re-living the bad portions of 2015 as the LA Galaxy gave up a late goal and found zero points on the road. It's a question that was asked throughout the season last year, and it's come back to life quickly in 2016. To help us talk about the mentality that is needed, we're joined by LAGalaxy.com Contributor Larry Morgan. The guys will discuss whether a different attitude is needed for this team. They talk about if the Galaxy are too timid when playing 90 minutes away from StubHub. They'll also discuss what would constitute success for the LA Galaxy on the road in 2016. Does the team switch tactics when on the road? Should the Galaxy approach games with a "3 points or die" attitude? And how does Bruce Areana approach road games? Does that differs from how Robbie Keane would approach them? It's a great show discussing a topic that is on everyone's mind. What do you think? How many wins on the road is preferable for this 2016 team?

Houston dropped a nickel on Dallas, NYCFC managed to almost lose, but somehow didn't, and LA definitely did. Oh, and have you seen these new Nike kits that have leaked? Spare yourself: they're atrocious. All that plus your regularly scheduled dose of trades (Mattocks to Portland) rumors (Julian Green to AC Milan), and nonsense (Alex not believing in Tennessee) in the latest Straight Red.

For 45 minutes the LA Galaxy failed to do anything remotely dangerous with the ball in their season opener vs DC United. However, thanks to a injury to Giovani dos Santos, Bruce Arena was forced to make a substitution bringing on Mike Magee. What happened next was an offensive explosion from a single man in a route of DC United. So has Mike Magee solved the Galaxy's offensive issues? Is Bruce Arena now forced to sit Giovani dos Santos? What is the answer for the LA Galaxy's goal scoring issues? Your hosts Josh Guesman, LA Galaxy Insider Adam Serrano, and special guest, LA Times Sports Reporter, Kevin Baxter go over the details, as they see them. When are Steven Gerrard and Giovani dos Santos going to contribute or gel with this team? Does Bruce Arena need to implement some changes in positioning? It's a great, quick, talk on the LA Galaxy's struggling offense. Yes it's early in the season, but it doesn't mean that certain patterns haven't begun to emerge.

MLS is back, baby! And Alex is back from Chicago. So two things happened.
