Chicharito will want to forget his 2020 MLS season, where he has only scored 2 goals in 11 games. Nagging injuries and very little service have been the causes of such low production, but there have also been rumors of in-fighting within the Los Angeles Galaxy locker room.
The Los Angeles Galaxy on the other hand was officially knocked out of the MLS playoffs after their draw with the Seattle Sounders. The Galaxy has only won 6 games the whole season and as a result, fired their coach Guillermo Barros Schelotto.
As one of the league’s highest-paid players, Chicharito has come under scrutiny this season for not living up to his billing. Last night fans poked fun at the forwards’ recent struggles, one that will have to be corrected as Chicharito has two more years on his L.A. deal. Here is how social media reacted.
Chicharito scores his second goal for the L.A. Galaxy
Social media was ruthless on the Mexican international, as many fans took his second goal with a grain of salt. Chicharito on the other hand celebrated in LeBron James style, something he has done before since he admires the NBA superstar.
After the game, Chicharito spoke to the media and gave a cryptic message regarding his poor debut season: “This year has been completely negative from all sides…There have been many factors that have contributed to me not being able to show my best form… We have a second chance starting next season, this club has given me everything since I arrived, and I have been the one to not confide in them, they have trusted me.”
