"Just over 48 hours after arriving on the west coast of America and with just one training session under his belt with his new team-mates, Robbie Keane marked his MLS debut with a goal for his new side in their victory over San Jose at the Home Depot Centre on Saturday night." Of course, the Robbie Keane buzz made it back to his home country of Ireland.

"There was one point that the Galaxy brain trust took care to be perfectly clear about: They know the pressure is on, and they're ready for it." And for another local perspective, but on the rest of the season.
