    A first rounder? For Oduro?

    Gosh I hope not. We need to stockpile those to get depth to deal with the expansion draft.

    Same with Hall going - he should be kept around to give Orlando somebody to take.

    I still think its Rey, because Weideman would leave us with only 4 forwards.

    Random thought:

    Gilberto for Oduro, straight up.
    Laba as "future considerations" in the Laba trade, +1st spot in allocation ranking for Vancouver to take Camillo.

    Wishful thinking though

    I don't think Rey fits any need of Columbus. But who knows.

    Kurtis Larson ‏@KurtLarSUN now Dominic Oduro is a U.S. green card holder and was not an international on Columbus Crew's roster.

    That is an ominous tweet by Rowaan.

    Judging by the online comments from Crew supporters, Oduro was very well liked in Columbus. He was also their leading scorer last season.

    This is a significant move.

    Yep, I think the cost might be a bit higher than we're guessing.

    If it's Gilberto, heads are going to explode.

    I gave him a beard stroke (mine that is) when he was coming out of the tunnel, pointed at him and said "for you". Not sure if he understood, but he laughed.

    That is not a head exploder, so that is a relief I guess.

    Given that leaves us with

    Defoe
    Moore
    DeRo
    Weideman
    Dike


    as forwards, yup.

    Mind you, it will give MLSE 3 weeks to change all the advertising with his face on it around BMO.

    It's either Osario and a 1st or gilberto. My guess.

    I have a feeling it's Gilberto.

    Not sure how I would feel about that...

    It will depend who we bring to replace DP slot in the summer time. It's possible we could sign another "big name" DP if manage to get one of DP's.

    I'm not a huge fan, and I think that would be incredibly foolish. Really bad business.

    If management feels like Gilberto is a flop, why not pick up a solid proven career MLS forward that can put up better numbers?

    I like Gilberto, and the optics might be questionable, but if this is the precursor to making better use of a DP slot, I think I can get on board with it.

    We gave up Laba and Gilberto for Oduro? That would be the reality of it.

    Looks like it's a moot discussion anyway. For the record though, it would have been for Oduro and a new DP...

    I was about to go out, but now I think I should stay home. Can Oduro play tomorrow?
