That sir, is how you make a trade. Bet Columbus are looking like idiots now after that trade for Noonan.

As i said previously.
Im glad to see a team lacking in every department will finally be getting a talented signing.

It is certainly a challenge to predict if the next world player will be worth taking for immediate improvement or wait for an exceptional team leader.

I'm confused about how this whole allocation thing works. Shouldn't the weaker teams get first dibs on incoming talent. That being said, how much scarier will NE look with Feilhaber in the mix.

I don't think its a fluke that Eddie Lewis, Cory Gibbs and possibly Feilhaber are returning. MLS is small and I'm sure people new about this for quite some time. Feilhaber probably wouldn't have come back to play for Columbus anyways but the Revs are different story. Helps him develop.

I'm guessing TFC knew nothing about these other returning players or none of them wanted to come to Toronto anyways. Gibbs would have lasted a game on our turf. Lewis has to compete with Robert. But Feilhaber would have been a great addition

That makes sense, but the league allows to trade allocation spots. Part of the reason why certain front offices are better than others: foresight.

I'm sure some one will tell us but I hear you. There needs to be a "now serving..." sign saying

The present team with first dibs is...

WE had it for McBride, passsed
Columbus had it for Noonan
when did San Hose get Huckerby?

san jose got our discovery signing claim on hucks, and then signed him.
this is not related to the allocation order for returning americans.

If the Revs weren't the favourites to win it all before...they are now!

Feilhaber is not going to sign with MLS .... he is going to Denmark to play. The MLS thing was just another agent ploy to get his European contract.
