Tim x 2 (with the blessing of MLSE) brought in the core players leading to those championships and finals appearances from 2014-2019. The Giovinco + Defoe (Altidore) + Bradley signings that put us...
I feel your frustration. I’m not mad that Altidore + Piatti are injured, I am frustrated at the process of acquiring injury prone players. Very sad offseason, management has to be called out for what...
Would a 4-2-3-1 would work? But Ideally we could turn Osorio's 750 k and Gallardo's contract into a productive winger. That money could get us a Katai tier winger... Another player I liked that...
What about Osorio?
At 750 k and 10 goals and 7 assists in 2018 I think this player needs to be starting. Can he play out wide?
For context with the salary given to Gallardo and Osorio we...
ya true
Nothing against Mullins but if we can’t develop one forward better then him we don’t deserve success. Akinola or Achara or Perruzza or someone need to develop into a 15 goal guy. Hopefully we can...
Yes.... Maybe they are preparing for a 2021 CCL run with Piatti and Bradley on TAM. Pozuelo as a DP and 2 more new DPs. Sell Altidore and use the money for a young DP then bring in a Giroud/Willian...
Ignacio Piatti and his brother are different players but it's encouraging that Ignacio lit up the league between the ages of 30-34 and Paoblo was always considered better. The VV comparison is legit...
Pozuelo can play false 9 because he’s an elite talent but he should not be playing false 9 he needs to be in that CAM role with Piatti at LW, Deleon/Gallardo at RW and Altidore up top that’s my...
I like it.
Piatti at 2-3.0 Million will be much better value then Altidore at 6 +.
I’m hoping by 2021 Piatti is the cost efficient #3 DP, Pozuelo is our #2 DP and Altidore is replaced and we...
We got Vazquez cheap because of his injury maybe we can get a bargain on Piatti's. His value has to be somewhere between Victor Vazquez 2017 TAM salary and Gaitan/Nani current salary (2.2 and 2.46...
Piatti is no doubt a starter and main piece to this team, just don't know if he will be our third best highest player or our fourth.
I actually really like Piatti as a signing in that right scenario but context is important.
If he's our third best player and he's on a D.P deal, I like it.
If he's our 4th best player and he's...
we should have found a way to get Cavalini at 1/4 the cost and bring in another electric DP using Jozy's 6 million. Gurantee Cavalini gets more goals then Jozy
Yet he will have his cheerleaders regardless, dude is a walking bandaid can't even play 70 % of games, misses finals, maybe it COST us the final, imagine we had an actual DP who played in the final....
I'll settle for Rafael Santos Borré...
24 years old.
18 goals in 54 games for River Plate
To be fair, we aren't in champions league this year and It's not like having a star player debut in negative 10 weather or a snow storm is an ideal scenario either. If we get a DP signed and ready...
This could literally mean anything. Gosh I hate when he does this. I do think he's a good CB for us though. I hope we keep him.
Alright you Reds, Christmas and New Years is in the books, back to the grind. camp starts in 3-4 weeks. Hoping for a very active next 2 weeks.
Yes I think so. We can guess the details but I’m thinking something around allowing MLS teams to capitalize on player transactional profiting ie: they allow teams to buy 1(?) young player(S) aged...
That's pretty reasonable. We have never signed a teenager like this before at that age and that price tag.
It's unlikely he would be a big difference maker in MLS though at least for a little...
He looks closer to a Barco tier prospect or Brian Rodriguez more so then a Gallardo level.
Rodriguez has showed more (he's a bit older and more national team caps) but Pellistri looks close to...
It would be nice if MLS allowed for a young DP spot that would not effect signing a prime DP.
We could still sign another DP at forward, sign Pellistri and keep him with Penarol for another half...
MLS put TFC, Pellistri rumour/interest on the main site.

That would be...
Giovinco for his 33,34,35 year old seasons vs the field.
At this point, I just want the best player/investment, I don't care about history or the player specifically. If Giovinco is better then...
