COG STUDIOS, Calif. — The LA Galaxy got to face the fans for the first time in 2026 as they took on the Chicago Fire on Sunday at the Coachella Valley Invitational. And CoG was there to capture the post-game vibes and talk to the Galaxy about the preseason as a whole.
Hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira held a post-game live podcast from the Empire Polo Grounds to talk to Head Coach Greg Vanney, General Manager Will Kuntz, Team President Tom Braun, Defender Jacob Glesnes, and Midfielder Eric Thommy.
This hour-long show dives into how the Galaxy are handling the preseason and what they see as the team’s ceiling in 2026. How important is a fast start? How did the team go about constructing this roster? And will Cristiano Ronaldo be coming to the Galaxy (lol)?
Plus, very important name questions for two of the Galaxy’s recent additions!
No matter how you spell “Eric,” come along for a quick trip to the desert and the Coachella Valley Invitational!
