    SKC trades away a fullback not playing for a forward who once scored a decent goal in CCL but has done little since and seems to have been replaced by a second round draft pick.

    ***

    Yes, its that sort of hard nosed transfer deals that are going on right now.

    To be fair Porter has done little partially because he tore some thing or several things in his knee shortly after that goal.

    Yeah, he had an ACL. I guess my point is people want big actions when most teams are trading to fill B team holes.

    Surprised they haven't listed the rumour of Benfica's interest in Cyle Larin

    lets hope LARIN goes to Benfica and Jozy goes home to Orlando,where he will score 25 goals a year and never get injured again

    I would love to see Larin at Benfica, he would get great service if given the chance to start; where he can unleash that super quick shot

    Patrick Mullins to DCU from NYCFC (for allocation and intl slot, so expect Vieira to sign someone soon), Fabian Saborio to Vancouver from DCU for allocation, per Goff at Wash Post.

    With limited roster spots, I don't think he's worth having 3 out-and-out no. 9s in an MLS squad. It's probably better to have 2 and then someone that can go up top if required. E.g. Oduro.

    DCU got rid of Espindola to VCWC - that's good for both teams.

    There has been talk of a DP striker for Whitecaps coming after the season is over. Maybe Espindola's contract expires at the end of this year and this move covers them at striker until then.

    Not Espindola thankfully. I'd rather have Ricketts. Or nothing.

    What's the "C"'s for? It's not the first time I've seen this but I don't think of VanCouver or the WhiteCaps when I read it.

    Just an aside. I'm all for this move this week thank you very much.

    I seem to remember VCWC being used in the 80's but a quick google tells me far too much about the Austrian Country and Western scene.

    Montreal trades a midfielder to Houston for something. Impact seem to be clearing the way to bring an import midfielder.

    Rumours that Espindola doesn't want to report and may be flipped to MX

    Rumouer Olympiakos makes a bid for Dwyer of SKC. If that happens, its either Dwyer wants out or SKC is retooling.

    Anyone know what the deal with Espindola is? Did Vancouver make another stupid trade or did they know he was never coming?

    Apparently he's got 4 months left on his deal and doesn't want to move his family to vancouver for 4 months. This all came up post trade.

    Looks like the Whitecaps will have to find a resolution to Espindola through the league office, probably through some kind of breach of contract. So they apparently traded for a head ache. If TFC had done this, it would have been ridiculed throughout the league.
