Agreed. They are simply positioning themselves for hand outs or strong arming the players in negotiations.
I can say with certainty, this league will not fold. If the owners didn’t have deep...
I think MLS is kidding itself with this strategy and this is bound to fail. This is a league driven by the gate and entertainment value. Grooming or scouting the future is not their forte, especially...
You know, that might actually not be the case. They are grooming Baldisommo who is similar and younger....
Someone pointed out on Twitter that Osorio switched agents which is often a precursor for a move. Let’s hope it’s not, I don’t need any more bad news this off-season.
Edit: looks like I’m late, lol
Well, in fairness other teams swooped in for those players and we weren’t quite ready to part. If anyone swoops in for Altidore, I’ll be shocked.
Translation: I made a mistake extending the contract and rather than acknowledge this to my bosses and awkwardly acknowledge how this was the wrong choice, I will pretend it’s not an issue for as...
True, but keep in mind it’s still going to be temp accommodations and not on a NBA-like budget. Not terribly ideal.
In all honestly that would probably be a deal breaker for me as a player with...
Point raised on Twitter (and i think it’s a valid one) 2021 for Canadian Teams means hotel rooms and extended travel.
It’s going to be really hard to find new players.
This sounds harsh but I would buy out Jozy even if it means we don’t get a replacement DP for several years. You just have to do it.
This has to be priority #1 in the off season
But you raise an interesting point. Not that I want to lose Vanney but from a roster standpoint, now is actually not a bad time to have a new manager. He’s getting a roster that he can have a say in...
Well, I think you can throw in a few items on the low end as well. He should get credit for Laryea and a few others.
Pure speculation but my gut feeling here is Curtis is not a good negotiator and...
Uggh, that’s just tough to swallow right now. Just another thing we have to deal with in the off season.
Regarding Piatti: I don’t particularly have a preference as to whether he stays or goes but...
I’d be okay with bringing back Morrow on a lesser wage. He’d be handy to have while we groom a replacement (don’t think Gallacher is it).
There have been a lot of domestic fullbacks hit the...
This is great. Now if he can roundly suck too the cycle will be compete. So much material here.
^ Thanks, I think that’s a good summary.
If I could add: practically, the implication is if you have someone on a low contract with a high market value, other teams are incentivized to bid. The...
I noticed that too. Seems odd that it’s not done at this point.
As a side note:

There is a decent chance other teams make bids for...
My torch is still burning on that one. We waited a year for that signing and they roundly struck out.
A few people have made this point but I think we (myself included) spend too much time...
At some point (and I’m not sure if that’s next year) you’d want to put someone line Dunn or Romeo in Zavaleta’s spot.
I’m the mean time, I’m not too fussed. He’s far down the depth chart and when...
If it was just this year in isolation with other occasional hiccups I would understand it. But it’s just entirely on going.
There are examples too, of people impacted by today’s world who have...
I would go with an out-and-out target man. Someone who can hold up the ball, be a point of reference in the box, and is good in the air or just outright scores garbage goals. If he has the speed to...
I understand the concern but isn’t the practicality here that he’s rarely been on the field over the past two seasons and there probably isn’t too much more we really do to keep this guy healthy /...
Perruzza scores again on the weekend.
I hope when he gets to the first team in January the experience has helped him be ready. No slight against him, I just question if the USL is not much of a...
^That’s all good news. No rush with Dunn in my books, always takes CB’s a longer time to develop. As long as he’s getting games somewhere I’m happy.
Agreed. He’d have to shine to keep that spot in my books. MLS doesn’t seem to have issues producing fullbacks these days so why tie a second international slot on one?
