Championship teams are wide open targets in drafts like this, not surprised the Reds lost a player at all.
Remember The Man, The Legend, The Goal 5-12-07 and All That #9 Left On The Pitch, Thanks For The Memories !!!
Bez will flip that around. LAFC not keeping anyone, IMO.
They haven't played a game yet and I already hate those L.A. bastards! Give Edwards back!!!
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
Is this goodbye to Raheem or is it motivation for a tradeback?
Lol at the talk of how each player fits into their team and the talking heads acting as if that means anything. As if LA is going to say "we don't actually want the guy, he's just a good trading chip". And yeah, they aren't keeping all these international players. Doesn't leave much flexibility for their own signings
Even though the selections are done, the real show is at 3pm.
Free Agency begins, and the blackout period for trades, etc. is lifted.

I said it earlier. I have a strong funny feeling Raheem winds up in Montreal or Vancouver.
This is a different player than Irwin, who we thought we needed to compete in 2017.
We are not building, we are reloading, and a lot of guys need raises. I don't see it.
This will cost someone a lot.

Edwards will likely be traded back. Not sure who we'd give up though... Maybe just allocation money
Larson, Molinaro saying no deal to bring him back as of yet
F**k LA FC, give them allocation money or Irwin, don't take one of our good young players away just days after we win the championship... I have faith in Bez were not losing Edwards...

Any idea why Raheem isn't listed as an international on LAFC roster?
https://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2017/...xpansion-draft
He didn't sign with TFC Academy until he was 20, so we know he didn' qualify under the Homegrown International rule that way. Can certain youth clubs also be recognized as Homegrown as well, maybe??

I'll be sad as hell if we lose Edwards and it looks like it's going to end up that way. Damn it.
They should have created a rule that you either keep the player or trade him back to his old team.
Shit, I was sure they take Raheem!
They should have been idiots not to...
This is a big loss for TFC.
ives is saying maybe to mtl
Bez needs to work out something, Raheen is by far our best young homegrown player.
Raheem the Dream....I doubt he is particularly happy about this unless it means more playing time then maybe he will be ok with it in the end. Until the league stops adding teams we have to continue to deal with crap like this. We get a player and groom him and another club is allowed to come in and say "thank you very much" one day just like that.
Also, there goes our depth at LB. I guess Morgan can fill in again if he can ever make the 18.
In almost all of our not so great games this season, when he was not playing, I was fuming angry why Vanney is not playind him at least as a sub, if not as a starter.
Oh god, looks like things are potentially getting worst:

Sounds like #LAFC may wheel and deal after all. I'm told Raheem Edwards is on the market, with one potential destination being Montreal in a package deal for Laurent Ciman. A Ciman-Zimmerman CB tandem would be pretty strong. #MLS #IMFC
Can someone explain to me why Edwards isn't a homegrown player?

Fuck. Edwards. Fuck. Fuck.
( my deep well thought out opinion on the matter)
Edwards and Raitla to Limp act for Ciman looking done
