Five players on TAM and three DP's seems inconceivable. We've also traded away TAM both the last two seasons. Then You add in Bono, Osorio, Delgado, Morrow, Zavaleta, Hagglund, Hasler, Ricketts are...

That's also my biggest question. I don't see how this fits.

Was just about to post this. My spanish is rusty to say the least, and basque is fucking impossible, but the jist i get is that his his contract is about to run out and we're taking him on a loan...

^^^^ best way to book-end this argument I think.

This, more or less. Might include a couple other (thinking Edu, Cronin, Frings OTTMH) but even then I'm stretching. All these guys have been and continue to be incredible assets who can play multiple...

I'm very confident our starting 11 would hold up just fine should we meet Tigres. The problem would be if we aren't able to field our best 11 due to suspension or injury or whatever.

our starting 11 is certainly up to scratch with the best in the continent.

nah. Not at all. W'ere just super deep so a lot of guys will be battling for places.

But have him sit on the bench 99% of the time when we don't use wingers? if Vanney really wanted to swtich to a 4-3-3 at some point in some game he could go with Endoh, Akinola, or Ricketts. Not tam...

we're supposedly offering between 5-7 million. Plus we have 5 forwards and don't play with inverted wingers. No chance this happens.

I think their is a very good chance we bring in Brad Evans and or Sean Franklin on small contracts to fill holes and add depth/experience at multiple spots. We've had lots of new signings come in and...

Yeah me neither.

Supposedly we're in for Darwin Quintero, Ecuadorian forward who's plied his trade in Mexico for the past decade. You'll remember him from absolutely fucking destroying Ashtone Morgan in the Champions...

Have you ever delved into the contract rules in the NBA? They're fucking insane. The NFL has it's own problems regarding guarenteed money and labor laws. MLB created the arbitration fiasco. I could...

These rules are no more absurd then rules in other NA single entity leagues.

It means we have a surplus of funds required to sign the Vazquez, VDV type signing but we need some cash to pay down the contract on guys like Bono, Zavs and Delgado.

In his lim ited minutes there with us he's been surprisingly very,very effective. Plays a different role in that spot but still does a job. I'm not worried.

Bradley is the best and most durable...

Well, better teams than ours around the world seem to manage being competitive and blood in their youngsters simultaneously. If the team is confident the kids can step up and play at this level they...

He'll play Canada cup games and the occasional midweek game. We gotta play our kids at some point. No point spending all that money on the best Acadamy in the league and not play the players it...

Like Delgado?

I suspect they'll pick up a very cheap domestic who can do a job, but Cheyrou's minutes very clearly sound like they're going to Fraser this year. They're very high on him and his...

Almost all transfer fees are amortized. MLS has just set it so that the transfer fee is amortized over the course of the contract, with that yearly fee going towards the players cap hit.

*Que restless TFC fans overloading his message box*

Univision reporting we were willing to part with Jozy for 4 million but America balked at the figure. I highly doubt any of that happened but whatever.

Metro has a huge report about MLS likely opening up a new TAM type mechanism with an eye towards focusing it on 18-21/22 year old players. Each team gets roughly 3 million. Not clear how many years...
