    And Espindola off to Mexico. Team and player saying it was as an offer once he had gotten to Vancouver.

    wouldn't put it past him. In the past he's made a big deal about the fact that he's won the title in all four leagues he's played in. I would imagine he's going to United to add a fifth to his collection, then go to Miami or wherever to finally cash in and live in the states.

    Can you imagine Ibra the first time he's away in Columbus and asked what he thinks of a ref decision?

    Chicago unofficially giving up on the season.

    I would say that this guy with Sam will make for a very quick front 2 for that team.

    Giles Barnes to the Whitecaps for general allocation money and negotiation rights with Costa Rican defender Keynor Brown. Houston also gets a cut of any future transfer fee if Barnes leaves MLS.

    The Whitecaps have made some odd personnel decisions this season in my opinion. Barnes is making 750k (somehow not a DP though) and hasn't really been that good since 2014. This looks like a bit of a band-aid to see out the season after shipping off Rivero instead of part of the long-term plan.

    Wow. Thats an interesting one. At 750k heès likely being paid down by TAM, wonder if they'll keep him in the offseason.

    Also, the trade market seems to be pretty active. Interesting. Wonder if TFC end up being active this week.

    That's a good trade for us - we play Houston in a few weeks at their place.

    Bedoya to the Union is the new rumour - Union beat reporter (Kinkead) spent most of the evening on twitter wondering why they needed another attacking mid when their need is striker. Allocation order has Philly #2 so something has to go to the Fire for this to happen.

    I wonder if Earnie Stewart being sporting director at Philly might be appealing to Bedoya.

    He just had a kid and his family launched a coffee company in Florida. I'd wager he just wants to be closer to home.

    This Fabian Castillo transfer saga is just crazy. Trabzonspor making public announcements. Late night negotiations at MLS World Headquarters on Fifth Ave. Castillo may or may not be back in Dallas. Trab fans brandishing knives and other kitchen implements on Twitter.

    Sort of reminds me of the Joey Plata situation at TFC a few years ago. So glad other teams are having these things happen now and not us. That alone is a managerial improvement.

    True that. Amusing to observe these kind of shenanigans, less fun to be part of it.

    Wow, this is an interesting story re: Castillo. Can't blame the league for wanting their money up front.

    If we're lucky it will reveal more about inner workings of MLS contracts. Alexi Lalas making noise about MLSPU under reporting his salary for several years.
