Toward the end of the 2012 season, Donovan declared that he would reassess his options for the coming season, citing fatigue and burnout. “It's just been a long two years," he said after the Galaxy's MLS Cup victory in December. "It's not a woe-is-me story, but I have to listen to my heart and my gut, and right now my gut says to get away for awhile.”
