I was just looking at Galatasaray's roster (trying to figure out how Adekugbe fits in) and I hadn't quite appreciated the caliber of players there generally:
Fernando Muslera I knew, but... Mauro...
Greg Vanney brings in every single guy that he used to work with, if he is at loose ends, for a look.
Bob Bradley, not so much (although Romero and Diomande are in that bucket).
Just observing....
Re Messi, if he is going to play in a lesser league, and it's not Saudi for the cash... why not Newell's?
I mean I know the security situation there isn't perfect, but he can hire guys. From a...
I would like to see Messi at Toronto FC. Failing that, Sporting KC. Failing that, Barcelona.
Those are my views.
“MLS office campaign to show Apple suits that their big pitches that Messi and Ronaldo are serious targets, continues….”
(Neglects part where Saudis will offer 5x what Miami will.)
If I were...
OK since no news, digression time. Cronin. OMG I loved that player. You are understating this. Cronin was the biggest roster mistake in TFC history. Preki sold him for nothing the year after he went...
Cover in MF in case they don’t get Messi
The Athletic has a big story today on all the ins and outs of CR's decision to go to Saudi.
Pretty in depth piece, runs to 18 pages if you print it. Lots of sourced discussion on his...
You watch. He will play, a bit anyway. League Cup or something. This is business.
The Qataris paid $150M or some such to Beckham for a half-assed ambassador gig at the WC.
If Brentford get...
Also… Miami , hmmm… could we somehow be in the mix for Campana here? Meant to ask that when the Cho rumours were floated a couple of days ago… at least we know Campana can play in MLS.
You sure he would get DP money? The Altidore deal in NE last year was a TAM deal, and that didn’t go very well…
This would finally be Miami bringing in somebody smart from a marketing pov in that...
Let's rename the tunnel in his honour.
The “younger quality European” is an extremely tricky channel of the market, one that we have tried to navigate, and one that we have never succeeded in (Stefanovic, Bostock, Aketxe). It's not easy -...
??
Wiki says he is 188cm, 6 foot 2 inches. In person he looked taller. He looked great in the air.
My question would be, looking at his wiki, that he may not have done enough over time to...
I disagree with the speculation that MLS will give Messi or anyone hundreds of millions in franchise value.
On the Beckham deal. At the time franchise expansion fees were $10M, and they gave hime...
OK this is becoming completely #$&@ing absurd. Can these reporters not do math? How can they let Vermes get away with this crap?
Whatever it is that MLS and SKC are trying to do here - some of us...
I agree with this.
I also agree with the opposite, the city doesn’t attract people who don’t have a connection to it (and I think this is a surprise to many Torontonians).
This is truly an offseason digression ... Drazen Petrovic does not get his due. I lived in NY during his prime, saw a lot of him. No player was shooting the three for real, as the primary weapon,...
I don’t know where it went, but Croatia's 55 man squad was stunning to me. The depth and quality there was on par with anyone in the world. We should absolutely be looking at the young guys knocking...
I think sometimes you you have to use a grey cell or two and figure some things out on your own.
Insigne broke by a wide margin the MLS salary record, and plays for a bigger club … and he makes...
Og, with respect, I don’t think that can be right. Even if I bought the idea that a, say, $40M offer is “very close” (it isn't).
This is a big boy serious billionaire's game. Is there one...
I don’t believe a word of this, SKC did not come “ very close” to this Saudi offer, don’t make me laugh.
MLS has to fix this discovery rights and allocation order nonsense, which is choking the...
Interesting CB signing by a better team than us has just happened…
