Article saying that TFC will need to clear cap room again to make this work.
the link says nothing about jdg just the dichio situation
hmmm drop Dichio for the cap space for Deguzman? Maybe that's what's been going on?
so...who can we move?
DeRo - JDG in the TFC midfield. End of last year, who even thought DeRo was a possibility. But this!? This is too much!
In MLSE speak, pay the man a million bucks to squeek in the playoffs. Not sure if its a short term gain. Becuase playoffs is only going to be mean one extra game for us.
It was the CCL that really brought in the extra home games.
Dare to dream, I think DeRo-JDG would tear this league apart.
bye bye Robbo???
Hume next, please.
This (the signing) would be the big news that Robbo twatted earlier
If and when we sign him, when would de guzman be able to play for us? Immediately or maybe next weeks game? two weeks from now?
MoJo needs to leave the Moxies patio to fax the papers to NY; the league office needs to approve, and Garber's on a yacht somewhere already, so realistically, next week at the very earliest.
Wow....
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?
This cannot be.... I am telling you this cannot be...

I'll beleive it when I see it! Would be great though. Although, I hope TFC lowered the price a little see as JDG had to come crawling back??!!
I've had info from a very good source that he was signing elsewhere... and this was not too long ago.. 5 days ago in fact!!!!

after over a week over negative doom and gloom around the club this sounds real positive..can TFC play over the salary cap to sign him then trade off players to fit within the cap? what penalty would the league invoke for playing over the cap? Who to give up to help make room...
Barrett,Gala,Dichio? one thing for sure season seats will be going up if this and the grass for next season happens.
Who cares , not me, especially under these conditions, whats that line, Once bitten twice shy? Especially under the instance that he might have only agreed since nothing happened in Europe. And if you are reading this FO and think geez we cant please them one way or another, you had ample time to prevent the feelings that most of us feel. Dont kid yourself, This is going to take a bit more than a piece of gum called JDG to fix the mess you are creating. Slap the band aids on boys!!!!!
WTF?
Was Mo just keeping this ace in the hole to distract us when the going got tough in relation to Dichio and other issues?
It won't work, but this is completely awesome!
Sadly if this is true, this probably means Robinson is done if JDG is going to be used as a DM, rather than the box-to-box role he typically plays with the CMNT. If he's asked to play the latter role, who is likely going? Still Robinson or someone else?
P.S. While I'm quick to say Robbo is likely gone, I (like many others) would say goodbye with a heavy heart because of his dedication and professionalism and he's been here since day 1. But like many others, I too say the steep decline in his play and in terms of making the team better, it would be acceptable to me.

JDG was never off the table for Mo, JDG himself was determined to play in Europe. Looks like that isn't happening, the money just isn't there for him I'd guess. This might tie-in to the Dichio situation if they were sitting him to prevent injuries while they sought a buyer, but that would pre-suppose that they expected JDG would come calling.
But if they need to clear cap space, which player is expensive and worth something to other teams? Is there any doubt?
