However the offense hasn't been the issue for the Galaxy (3-6-1), who have netted six goals in their last three games yet lost each by a 3-2 score. Schmid agrees with his critics that the team's defending has been lax yet fixing that Monday won't be easy since the team is also without captain and left back Ashley Cole, who is serving a one-game suspension for yellow card accumulation. Right back Rolf Feltscher was already out with injury, weakening what already was the weakest part of the team.
