Well when everything went down last July we were taking on water but we surprisingly still that play in spot not completely out of sight even though we sucked. Then we tossed Ibarra & Dunfield in the...
It's not like Insigne has been garnering returns in many facets of the game minus rehab visits.
True but he has also only played a couple matches so far. Even MAK looked good in his first few matches the summer he arrived. Even if this was connected to Ibarra, which there's no way to know, the...
Possibly but he was also a bad fit and never panned out there. The supporters turned on him too. It was just a bad scene, something they seem to have a lot of these days.
Honourable mention #2 - As of today they've spent approximately $25m on Insigne for 12 goals and 6 assists in 23 months.
I'm not worried about standings or anything for the first half of the season. For me, we already surpassed my expectations based on our minimal roster changes. I just hope we stay competitive, keep...
Exactly. That move was 100% a new, inexperienced GM put in a tough spot and trying to show he doing something to fix the team without thinking of the long term implications. Add in that he chose...
Of the pure Hernandez moves; Blessing bad. Ibarra bad. Mailula bad. Owusu good. Etienne Jr. seems good. Drafting Spicer at #1 definitely good but sort of obvious even though we passed up obvious a...
If this guy is the "core starter" then Hernandez has to go before he fills us with enough "core starters" to win back our spoon.
This guy has Chicago Fire overpaying written all over it.
Bernardeschi has turned a corner and I think he could work with another player who likes the ball. Insigne not so much but if it were me, I wouldn't make too many roster decisions based on a guy with...
He could but even when he was cold he held the ball up, made runs, was a bit physical in the box. He relies on service though and that won't always come and could be shut down. I always liked having...
Starting to think Owusu might be good enough as the target man/cleaning up the junk/getting on the end of things type of CF so I would rather us aim for a Cucho or Arango type forward that can make...
And the Ayo to Galaxy rumors have already started.
And Insigne. Can't see the point in him coming back for 6 months and zero chance they re-sign him.
Impossible to say until MLS decides how they want to proceed in 2025. Lots of pressure from powerful sources to bring in more high end talent and open up the wallets.
I would 100% buy him out this winter. What's the point of having him at DP for 6 months.
Maybe they have two U22 targets and they either fell through before our window closed or else they're on deck for July and we'll let Ayo's deal run out instead of using the buyout. Can't think of any...
If I were Hernandez I would start throwing names like Coello, Mabika, and Stefanovic around to test Joey's resolve when confronted with cheap useful players.
Only a DP in 2024 and there will be new salary structures in 2025.
I figure it wouldn't be loan but a straight up buyout. The way I see it MLSE is eating that 750K either way so might as well free up that spot to give Mailula a chance and let Ayo try to catch on in...
It would make sense to buy him out now so he could go sign to a CPL team and because we get an additional buyout in July.
Maybe the CSA will hire him to manage Canada so I can finally see how Jonathan David and Cyle Larin do at fullback.
Well sure but was he any good at fullback? I don't think so...
Last thing a team like ours needs is a player that can only score a lot of goals.
I don't think he is a project though. He is what he is now; a speedy inconsistent player that will probably be a back up in the long run.
