    Losing Rimando night be a bigger loss than you think.

    Looks like they are losing Luis Gil to the U23s as well.

    Maybe not as bad as I thought. No Altidore really hurts though. I guess Moore will get the start.

    Perfect time to call up Hamilton. I really do think they need to give him a good run of games in the first team to see where he is at.

    Marco Delgado got the call into the US U20 camp. So three players from the 18 man roster in Columbus will be unavailable.

    Warner in for Bradley and Dike in for Altidore. Should still be a decent lineup.

    Probably going to be Moore, Vanney has shown he's not big on Dike

    which begs the question, why did we re-sign him

    If Giovinco gets called up to Italy during the Gold Cup, we'll be needing Dike.

    Italy only has one game for qualifying in June, if he is called up he'd likely only miss one week, unless I'm missing something?

    He has a big upside if he can stay healthy. I don't see him getting many minutes, though. We're not using a target man system. I suppose if someone goes down, he goes to number three behind Altidore and Moore (who is a better player with a better pedigree); but Hamilton's not far off.

    Likely just the suspicion -- not unreasonable, either -- that we'll have two strikers down at some point, or one down and one away. Then we need a third and fourth.

    It's either him, Hamilton or another no name striker. You need the bench depth. If you bring Hamilton up to be that depth, HE sits on the bench. Hamilton is better served actually playing on TFC2. You can bring in someone you don't know and see if that works out, or you sign the guy who you know exactly what you're going to get.

    So during preseason Bez mentioned they were saving some $$ for the summer window and the plan was to evaluate their needs based on the the games until then. Safe to say it's going to be spent on defenders? Caldwell is already on the injury table and our right back competition isn't going so well.

    Yeah we need an experienced CB for sure. If Perquis gets injured we're screwed.

    I think they knew that even before the season started but probably just couldn't land anyone they wanted at that time.

    We needed two CB's at the start of the previous season. So we still need another one.

    I like when the reporters ask the very same question that you are wondering, and based on Vanneys comments there is some rule that allows players to be sent on loan to TFCII full-time....

    Simonin had to sign a TFC contract to be included in this weekend's bench in Utah. TFCII signed players can't come up for MLS games.

    He's our one defensive line sub.

    I have no idea where Molinaro got the 28 player roster limit from.
    A Major League Soccer club’s first team roster is comprised of up to 30 players
