    We're going to lose at Columbus by an NFL score aren't we?

    Retarded...both meanings apply here.

    What is most disturbing to me is how absolutely amateurish this organization is in building a team...no vision, no plan, just moves, noise, lies and god willing a sex tape soon.

    Understood.

    It's not really Preki I have a problem with. I like Preki.

    But fuck off MO. If he can't get his shit together by the home opener then all bets are off.

    classy. Marvell has been with the club for a long time and has done many great things for TFC and has been one of our better players over the years.

    A simple "good luck to you" would have sufficed

    Its not just that. Mo is not making moves that make sense.
    We release players without replacing them. Our team is so thin. Our midfield isnt creative enough, we have a shit defence, no depth and only DeRo to score.
    This all falls on Mo. How many other teams have trailists in the last days of camp. We should be up and ready to go.
    This season will be woefull and I hope that if (When?) We dont win any of the first 5 games, Mo gets his ass fired and we get a decent person to run this. This isnt year one anymore.
    I have been a Mo supportera and argued he needs time.
    Clocks done Mo, fuck off.

    Preki (and by extension Mo cause I imagine, ok HOPE, he's listening to Preki here) are getting the benefit of the doubt for now

    Mo should be fired anyway. He should be fired for everything that has happened to this point, let alone anything that happens in the future. He should have been fired at the end of last season, but as we all know, he had secretly signed an extension months earlier.

    I disagree. Ever since year one he's just tailed off into something so despicably bad.

    But yes...I was harsh. Good luck to Marvell elsewhere. With our luck he's going to develop into the star we wanted him to be by joining another team.

    From what I heard Preki couldn't stand Wynne as he is defensively useless and couldn't do anything except run fast.

    On that note good luck Wynne

    I don't think the Edwards move is to save money, I just don't think Preki has any confidence in him when he knows Conway is a dependable keeper.

    This is roster-building stuff. It's good. It should've happened weeks ago, and it still doesn't solve our striker situation (shamless related column plug : http://www.rednationonline.ca/The_So...0_column.shtml) but it's something.
    Thanks for the info, I didn't know he was a wide player, all I remember seeing him play was CM. If I didn't know this, I would of thought...why are we bringing in another CM....but if he can play wide, and also at LB....that helps.

    well good. we need guys like him.

    maybe i'm just disappointed that we can't get any better players than LaBrocca for Wynne.
    Yeah, most fans think in those terms but most coaches think in terms of either holder or two way, and he's definitely a two way. But his defensive skills are greater than his offensive, basically, same as Sam Cronin.

    You just described Garcia, minus the run fast part.

    This is MLS, rebuilding teams can make the playoffs. The difference between first and last (okay, second and second-to-last) isn't that much. Was RSL rebuilding last year?

    Because Preki has to retool the roster with very little cap room, I think it'll take about a season (this plus next off season) before we get 'Preki's team'. Esp with new CBA making thing even more difficult to move players.

    I'm almost, ALMOST writing this season off and rather pessimistic about making the playoffs. but since this is MLS, anything can happen. lol

    The bye week next week actually might be a blessing in disguise so Mo has 2 weeks before home opener to sign some players...
    (not that is an optimist thing to look forward too...)

    Sad to see Marvell sent off in this way. He has so much potential, I just don't think the team ever figured out that he isn't a defender. They started playing him higher up near the end of last season, but too little too late.

    He's straight up a casualty of lack of depth. You watch. Colorado is going to play him in an attacking midfield and he'll start producing.

    Cheers, Marvell!

    Also, so long Brian. Good luck!

    I understand your frustration.

    But I don't really understand your comments in a thread about a trade regarding Marvell Wynne for Nick Labrocca.

    I wish people would comment on the trade in a thread about the trade, rather than using a thread about the trade to comment about everything else. That's why I responded with my comment about what you thought about Marvell Wynne.

    I don't see anything wrong with trading Marvell Wynne for Nick Labrocca...

    There u go! Nigel is just as fast as Marvell.

    Good luck in Colorado MW.

    Not sure why everyone is so upset about Edwards. I don't see him being picked up by anyone.
