Goodbye to the dream.
Will they try to get him back?
Ah crap. With some development he could have been Morrow's heir.
Thanks for your efforts Raheem.
He could still come back...
I suspect he'll be back just like the Irwin situation last year when Atlanta drafted him in the expansion draft.
For Cooper+TAM?Quote:

Say it isn't so Raheem :(
I still can't believe they left him unprotected. Jesus. We better trade back for him. He has a future.Quote:

Calculated risk. Osorio probably less likely to be taken if left exposed (much higher salary on top of being international), but bigger loss if taken. Edwards, more likely to be taken, but less of a loss. They took the safer approach and I'm sure they wouldn't do anything differently even if they knew what was going to happen
Osorio would have been flipped to Vancouver or Montreal, guaranteed!Quote:

Edwards and Raitala to Limp act for Ciman
Raheem in Impact colours is a mockery. Fuck you Braz.
Well that settles it.. we must burn down LA.Quote:

On positive note, he probably be getting consistent minutes with Impact which is good for national team.
Anyone but fucking Montreal. Fuck.
Well it is exactly what happened with Raheem being pegged for a move up the 401/20.Quote:

It's a sad day... It won't be the same seeing him in blue next season. I hope he does well but Montreal doesn't
Edwards has more upside than Osorio and Zavaleta so yeah I would've done that.Quote:

If you lose one of Hagglund and Zavaleta at least you have the other if you lose Raheem then.... I just dont get it tbh
As bad as it is for us as fans think how awful it must be for Edwards.
top of the world one day with Champions league to look forward to then being shipped to your rivals, a team hated by basically everyone you know, that has got to really suck. If I was Edwards I'd try to look for a European option rather than ever suit up for the Impact
Rt and he has the talent to do itQuote:
