La oferta x Lucas Melano del Toronto FC (MLS Soccer) x el 70% del pase es la que + seduce a #Belgrano. Pero el delantero no está convencido.
google translate: The offer x Lucas Melano Toronto FC (MLS Soccer) x 70% + pass is what seduces # Belgrano. But the striker is not convinced.

I know he's young, but 7 goals in 44 appearances doesn't inspire me with too much confidence, mind you he could be coming on as a sub as an impact player...Originally Posted by ag futbol
They play on Sunday. Nothing on the Inter site suggesting he isn't currently with the squad though.
Announcing a DP after a game on a Saturday evening?
No way Lieweke announces this any way then the biggest possible.
I'd be looking to Monday thru Thursday for an announcement on a DP.
Friday's are for subs, journeymen and squad fillers - and for when players leave.
No interview, no trial, Nelsen just lines up the prospects, asks them to boot the ball as far as they can, the winner is given a contract.
Now that's its out, Neill was the Friday surprise. I heard about this move since end of last week and (un)fortunately it can very well be signed and sealed before the week is out.
Only place I can see him is Central D. Very strong physically but consistently slow. Reminds me of Tchani a bit when he played for us. Slow movement but would shield the ball well and diffuse situations of pressure by holding on the ball and moving it around.
Know nothing of the Melano deal, anyone seen him play? Those stats scare me...
The rest of the twitter feeds state the Melano doesn't want to continue his career in north America. He would rather play in Europe. Seems we could get a disgruntled player if TFC buy him. Rather get somebody that actually wants to play for TFC than provide minimal effort and then leave.
If Niell is a done deal, he better be in the 100K range for this year and next...otherwise I will lose confidence that there is a strategy and it is more like who from his buddies can Nelson convince to come over...its a throwaway move and a waste of resources...
I would not be surprised if it is a done deal and they do not want to announce until a bigger deal is done...as this deal on its own will raise more questions than answers...
Just heard on the radio that Nelson said today, "when we get our salary cap situation sorted, the league will be scared" something along that line...omg its gonna be kaka....omg omg omg omg
What will we do to get our cap sorted?
This is how I feel..
Ha ha...exactly.......I guess we just close our eyes and pray.

no clue just heard it on the fan 590..put it on they are going to speak about it now
Kaka's here. I head he was on his way to BMO for a medical.
We are going to be so scary that we will start to actually take advantage of playing a man up for 70 minutes.
Is this the new "he's going to tear this league apart" ?
Yeah, but where are the Lucas Neill sightings?
Is Eckersley getting tossed to sort out the cap? Hmmm
Nelsen just can't say that stuff given our history. It's just a facepalm moment.
Yeah, but where are the Lucas Neill sightings?

I wish they would shut up with the running of the mouths. Just do the friggin work and sign some players that will help the team instead of gabbing about how 'scary' we will be.
We are scary now.....scary bad.

BOOM!
The
Friends
Club
This is tfc's history. We dont sign just any player. We sign former teammates. Good old friends. Friends who passed their prime.
The season is over. Let Henry get the starting experience.
Is this the "A-List" players leiweke promised? Fucking joke.
Good luck getting rid of players like Braun and Lambe. This is why tfc is selling the top players. Because they can't get rid of the rest of the garbage. No team is stupid enough to take them off our hands.
+1
Sometimes it's better to just take the pressure from the media and fans and not continue down the path of promises that your not sure if you can keep.
Both Payne and Nelsen should have from the beginning said. We will continually evaluate our team and if we can make moves to get better in certain positions ect we will do it. That's all that should be said.
kaka in the news.

I guess Payne and Nelsen feel they have to throw the fans a bone so to speak during this time of us sucking ass and dumping Silva & O' Dea. It's all meaningless drivel to us because we follow this shit more than we should, sanity-wise, but the average joe fan from town would be oblivious to most of these discussions,rumors, and 'sightings'. They will probably buy that shit.
No where the bigs joke in the MLS last seven year .Groundhog day over and over!
i heard it on the radio, i cannot confirm if its 100% true
TORONTO -- Manager Ryan Nelsen says once Toronto FC sorts out its salary cap issues, it will make its presence felt in MLS.
In fact, Nelsen says there will be -- in his words -- "a few frightened teams" around the league.
The 2-10-7 club has been shedding salary cap obligations in recent weeks to free up money to sign new players.
