    Post any news here.
    MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto

    That guy was first linked to the Crew weeks before Bez took over so not sure i'd class it as one of his signings.

    For a second I thought that was the Robinho who played for Real Madrid!

    Looks like our season opener is a bald headed CB derby.

    So DCU almost sold Acosta to PSG. Couldn't agree on a price.

    We live in a very different MLS people.

    Point being made on twitter by some Impact supporters they just paid $150k for an international spot while a US team or two just reduced their requirements with getting green cards issued. Canada at a disadvantage given the permit seems to take much longer or there’s a higher bar for what MLS recognizes. Can’t say I disagree. Kinda bullshit

    Vancouver is having a huge offseason. Maybe the best in MLS.

    Joaquin Aradiz a 19 year old striker from Uruguay.
    Erik Godoy a big CB from Argentina only 25.
    Lass Bangoura
    Lucas Venuto... nice winger from south america. Only 24.
    Hwang kong.

    I like how they are bringing in YOUNG players that are useful to the current level of MLS that can help them win but also players they can build the value up and sell. Especially Aradiz who looks very promising. Not all will be hits but I like they are investing money in young players.

    MdS has always had a good knack of knowing what players will fit his system and choosing ones that will fit his budget. Players will come and play for a team because he's coaching it. I'm positive they will be a playoff contender by next season.

    They signed the replacement before they sold Almiron. Pity Martinez

    Apparently Almeyda already wants out of San Jose because they won’t spend any money. Lol. Why did he ever go there? It would be so San Jose to lose him before the season even starts.

    That's a LigaMX based rumour - I have my doubts.

    Chicago Fire sign Nicolás Gaitán on a free transfer from Dalian Yifang. Not even on a DP contract (this year), which is crazy considering less than 3 years ago Athletico paid 23 million euro for him.

    Croatia's second best team, in your view, I'm guessing...

    They are currently second place and won the league 2 years ago. Only one who can put up a real fight nowadays.

    Nope. Having fun with the guy. I figured, based on the way he spelled “Dinamo” in his board name”, he was a Dinamo Zagreb supporter (most of the Dynamo teams use a y)
