Chad Barrett:

Basically, a player, a pick and an allocation for free. If Johnston can sign somebody with the allocation money the striker rotation down the stretch is Dichio, Barrett, Random Foreign Devil and Ibrahim. Hopefully that's enough for a playoff push.

anything is an upgrade from Cunny.

Hmm, didnt expect both a 1st rounder and cash....not bad for getting something outta nothing

^ who cares, relax people multiple threads arent going to hurt anybody

[James17930]

I'm not worried about it. Just sayin'.

With a DP Striker this will build a good enough selection of Strikers.

[CretanBull]

Now that we know how much money we have to play with, the allocation will likely be used to pay for Dickov and Cunny will be released.

[Draracle]

nice! Did we get their conditional pick? Or did the MLS give us an actually number? Either way, we should end up with the #2 pick and two more first rounders. Barret is at least competent, while I hope he isn't the final solution, he will fortify our are weak striker core.

"I have it on good authority that Chad Barrett has been traded to Toronto FC along with another player to Toronto for rights to sign Brian McBride. The deal may also involve another player, possibly (Calen) Carr"


Commissioner Don Garber stated at halftime during the MLS All Star game that a deal with Toronto was brokered and would be announced Friday.
