View Full Version : Where are our New players!?

If I'm not mistaken, it's transfer season, and one big question comes to mind: WHERE ARE OUR NEW PLAYERS!?

Mo specifically said that if the JDG deal breaks down then he's got a couple other players he'd like to bring in. Yet we've heard absolutely nothing except for the dutch kid. Last season there was a new rumoured player every single day, now it feels like one would be a blessing from heaven. So, my question is, where do we stand on filling up our roster? Why haven't we signed new players yet?

If I were Mo, I'd get together with the Real Madrid coach and see if we can snag a young reserve player off them for a couple seasons. But seriously, no moves at all. We had Poz, didn't sign um, we almost had JDG and nothing. I was expecting a couple new faces to lift this squad into playoffs, but beyond Gerba there's nothing. And if Velez leaves, we'll have like...19 out of 24 players. I think we should be filling our roster if we're not paying for the salary don't you?

In closing: Gimme more footballers Mo!

No I mean the other 3 prizby was talking about, just to get an idea. For example if they're African, European or local.

August 14 is the last day:

(B) TRANSFERS AND LOANS
An MLS player may be transferred or loaned at any time to a team outside the League (subject to that team's Federation's transfer window). The registration windows - the dates between which MLS may request the transfer certificate of an international player - are as follows:


January 21 - April 15 (Primary Window)
July 15 - August 14 (Secondary Window)

I do believe there is a news conference with TFC and RM today at 7:30 pm. Perhaps more will be revealed about our trialists then?

Otherwise? Fuck, Mo, you gotta hurry it up. Just 8 days left and counting!

You're right. I had the day wrong. This is from the Real Madrid web site:

"It will be Real Madrid’s first visit to Canada. The squad will rest in a hotel before attending the game’s presentation and press conference at the BMO Field at 19.30 local time."

To be honest I'm kinda glad that we don't have to hear about a million random names who have no chance of joining the team like we did in the seasons past.
