Erik Thommy - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

On bench Wednesday Thommy (foot) is on the bench in Wednesday's contest versus San Jose Earthquakes.

Impact Thommy completed his recovery earlier than expected and could be an option to see reduced minutes in upcoming matches. However, he won't have an easy path into the main lineup, as the Galaxy now have elements like Joseph Paintsil, Robert Taylor and Hirving Lozano strengthening their attacking power on the wings. In any case, Thommy's comeback adds a valuable depth option to the squad.

On bench versus Atlanta Thommy (thigh) is on the bench for Saturday's matchup against Atlanta.

Impact Thommy completed his recovery from a muscle problem that has sidelined him since mid-April, but he barely regained enough fitness to play a backup role. He notched his first goal of the campaign in his most recent outing before the injury, and he was a consistent contributor of offensive stats when on the pitch. His return will threaten Harbor Miller's and Gabriel Pec's playing time on the wings.
