Ancelotti to TFC.

"Timmy...bubala, uh I mean, Mr Leiweke, go out with a bang - give Mr Ancelotti an offer he can't refuse."

[Ivy]

We have the most expensive Italian, why not the most expensive coach?

Wait until the next major Argo announcement and then BAM.........

Wait until the next major Argo announcement and then BAM.........

You just know that this is lying in wait. Or the president. Saving it up for PR effect.

"We are pleased to announce the new era of TFC with Ancelotti as manager and Gandini as President ​and also field turf"

A slap on the back while they slip a turd in your pocket, I can see that.

Ashley Cole to TFC?

"According calciomercato.it Ashley Cole would be next to the starting point: the direction MLS. Just in the last hours he is working with the termination of his contract, given the bad season and the limited use of the fullback.The most popular destination is the Toronto FC , ​​Major League Soccer in which militate Bradley and Giovinco, and who in the past had tried Cole."

Doubt it unless we have space for another DP being opened up by the league or hes on something slightly under DP salary

I.E. he's played in Italy so he's one of our target's, supposedly.

If he's going to MLS he's going to NYCFC. Only team that fits.

[Areathrasher]

Yea, that's not happening.

[Still Kicking]

Don't have any info to disagree about Ashley Cole, but I think it may reveal TFC summer signing strategy. Could they be seeking somebody that has six big months left in the tank because with the Argo groundshare clouds over the renewal process , TFC success might be now or never...

John Molinaro ‏@JohnMolinaro 7m7 minutes ago Simonin says he's about 10 days away from returning to training. I'm at the bus stop with him waiting to go to Downsview. #TFC

Yes the glamourous life of a soccer player....and a soccer journalist.

[Auzzy]

Well since we have two MLS-quality left backs, and need a right back, it would make sense to sign an expensive international left back...

In fairness he is probably commuting from whatever downtown/liberty village they put him in. Simonin that is.

good to hear that.....
reminds me of Matt Bonner and the frequent sightings of him on the TTC during his raptors stint.

[barticusz]

I hope Simonin can get some minutes again.. his long pass can be quite useful and add another dimension for our attack. All this assuming Caldwell remains out.

now this would be a great signing for a 4th dp hes still killing it in Serie A at his age. imagine him and seba up top. He might go to Australia for just 1m

Yeah Luca would be a great signing even if only for 1 year. He would shred MLS defenders apart even at his age.

[Bishop Blaize]

If he was any other nationality it would be laughed at.

Fabiano Santacroce from Parma...

[Richard]

Bringing him in the summer window would mean it only counts as half the cap hit of his full yearly salary. I could see it happening since we might have more allocation, but we're going to have to move somebody. Once Caldwell is gone next year it will be easier to fit him in under the cap.

If Darren comes u just know Caldwell is out, on Santacroce it makes sense if we bring him in as a rb otherwise I see him on a list of guys that includes Darren to replace Caldwell

It doesn't appear he was making that much money at Parma. Would be a good pick up IMO.

Fabiano Santacroce from Parma...

Yes. Was supposed to become a top defender in Italy but lost his way.

If we can get him without disrupting the core.......pull the trigger.

In this league he's a solid defender. He wants to be here. He's 28. I hope it happens soon.

[Milanista]

The guy is killing it, in one of the tops leagues in the world...guys like him have long shelf life bc he doesnt depend on speed, he uses his footy iq to make smart runs, knows where to be and is a pure poacher...he won't come here though, im sure he will remain in italy

If he was any other nationality it would be laughed at.
