CARSON, CA - JULY 22: Tristan Bowen #17 of the Los Angeles Galaxy controls the ball near the touchline in the second half of their MLS match against the San Jose Earthquakes at The Home Depot Center on July 22, 2010 in Carson, California. Donovan scored

The 19-year old LA Galaxy forward has received a call up three times to the USA youth teams and should receive a call to play in the 2012 Summer Olympics.

Bowen has been overshadowed by the numerous talented scorers on the Galaxy roster, but look for Bowen to have a breakout 2011 season and make Bob Bradley call him up to the national side.

Cody Cropper

Cropper, 17, signed with Ipswich Town of the English Championship during the summer transfer window. He could be the goalkeeper of the future.

Listed at 6'4" 215 pounds, the Minnesota native is playing with the reserve squad for Ipswich Town.

Cesar Zamora

After spending time in the Chivas USA Developmental System, the 19-year old California native was signed by Chivas USA in 2009 and made his debut in a SuperLiga match in the same year.

Zamora will look to be a main contributor to Chivas' midfield next season.
