Sebastian Lletget has enjoyed a stunning beginning to his life as a LA Galaxy player.

The 22-year old California native has slotted in perfectly to the Galaxy line-up since arriving from West Ham United, scoring four goals in six outings, including three in MLS.

Following Lletget's scoring performance in Wednesday night's 5-0 drubbing of Portland Timbers, Galaxy captain Robbie Keane heaped praise on the talented attacking midfielder.

"He has got some quality. He's very, very comfortable on the ball, and sometimes he just has to learn how to get rid of the ball a little quicker, which I've spoken to him about," said Keane.

"He does some great stuff at times. He holds the ball up so long, and then, before you know it, you're absolutely shattered [as his opponent]. They found out.

"He's young, he's learning, he's just been great; he's scoring a few goals, which is very important to us. He's a lad that listens, and already he has been a big addition, and going forward he will be."

Next on the agenda for the Galaxy is a clash with San Jose Earthquakes at Avaya Stadium in Lletget's home town.
