Johan Smith released = ALI GERBA #13
Johan Smith released = ALI GERBA #13
To be honest, I liked Smith's play last year. His pace caused problems and he could play in some decent crosses. Unfortunately though the arrival of DeRo and Vitti made him surplus to requirements.
And while Gerba isn't going to suddenly make us a good team, he's a prolific striker, which is what we need.
Wouldn't it be cool if they never announced anything, and they just put Gerba in the lineup in MTL??
It'd be pretty funny and it'd throw the Impact a curveball, but it'd be impossible. We'd know somehow, it'd be impossible to keep secret unless they just flew him in an hour before kickoff.
What is Mo waiting for, the off-season?.... again.
Well Cummins just said that Nothing is done in regards with Gerba yet so who knows, might not happen at all
Could also be the league not wanting to pay what Ali G is asking for since all that shit has to be cleared by the league and we know damn well they aren't quick about that kinda stuff.
P.S. Johann Smith has been officially "waived" goodbye. If so, there must be a signing coming in to replace him.
ya with Smith Gone, if they don't sign Gerba, then it seems kinda a waste to release someone, unless you were sure he was going to sign. If Gerba dosen't sign, then Mo should be waived.
The way I look at it, is that they will do what ever they can for Gerba, with Greg Sutton released, and now a lightly played striker as well, we are down a striker position, and a Canadian. And have 200k in salary freed up. plus we still have two spots open on the team, This kinda suggests an opening for Gerba plus a DP slot if they choose to go for one. (which I'm not convinced is needed)
DP would be nice, but we'd have heard something if they were planning to bring in a big name.
The Morientes to MLS rumour is back (not just on MLS rumours and Tribal, but in Marca in Spain as well)
Toronto FC baby...best team everrrrrrrrrr -Jozy
can we get JDG..for a one game LOAN vs MTL..
Or maybe a striker........?????
I just wish something would happen already . . .
Don Garber is closed for business today Mo.......call back tomorrow!!!

I think it will get done with Gerba....however I was hoping this would get done sooner than later.....all this roster shuffling is just making me more frustrated.....sign his ass already!

New addition to Wiki;
Despite his proflic strike rate in a Dons shirt and his status as a firm fans favourite, Milton Keynes announced they would not be offering Gerba a new contract for the 2009/10 season. Gerba has been much sought after since becoming a free agent, and has since been liked with moves to MLS with Toronto FC[4] , a return to his hometown Montreal Impact and also with English sides, Millwall, Stockport County, Oldham Athletic, Brentford and Burton Albion.[5]
Interest from English sides is not good ( for us), signing with Impact even worse. It may just be his agent trying to stir shit up.
I read that as well today.......the plot thickens....and even after he ate all MLSE's food in their box!

Trane, those clubs were up last week, before he even flew in for talks.
Probably doesn't mean much.
