    I figure Manning told Jozy Seba is coming back.

    Manning hanging out with Gio's agent, suddenly falling in love with Gio's trainer....

    Saudis buy him out for $5M or something. Then some kind of thing like what Ibra did, TAM money first year, then $4M a year the next couple of years.

    I'll get my hat.

    it's funny you say that as i've been having similar thoughts especially with what some folks have said about Seba's playing time to date, but then my wife wakes me up saying i've been screaming, "GOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLL"

    Seba going to change his game to be a wide forward in a 4-3-3 & let Jozy & Poz be the big kahunas?

    The Damscus road is in Syria, not Saudi Arabia.

    I think its the only way to put Seba into this current team & be effective. That 4-4-2 we played on Friday is going to get us killed by most teams in this league.

    Ah, I thought you were saying there was no way he'd go into a 4-3-3, which is where Vanney has said he's bringing the team (although we've never really used it, except in our worst game this year).

    Not sure why you think most teams would beat us. Minnesota is better up front than most teams. This run and gun game we are playing can win. Norwich is playing exactly the same way and will possibly win the Championship (knock on wood, knock on wood, knock on wood).

    I wouldn't want Seba back. They got rid of him at the right time. Sign a winger as a DP not another striker if they buy down Bradley. I couldn't stand Giovinco flopping and crying to the refs, his attitude sucks.

    All you guys who don’t want Seba back are cracking me up.

    I'd take a healthy Jozy over Seba. Obviously Seba is better than Jozy, but Jozy is a better fit with Pozo. Those goals where Pozo crosses it and Jozy bullies his way in and heads it in won't happen with Seba.

    Also, Seba loved being the top dog with the game always being played through him. Would he accept a more off-the-ball game with Pozo commanding the midfield? He came to MLS to be the top dog, not second fiddle. Jozy is a perfect second fiddle.

    I agree with you. I think he's coming back.

    Please...someone... a real rumour. I don’t think I can take anymore Giovinco’s coming back delusions. Make a signing pleeease.

    Giovinco just today bragged about scoring in the AFC Champions League, he's not going anywhere.

    Also, we gave Pozuelo #10, if Seba were to come back you don't think his massive ego would demand the number back? Frankly, it would be disrespectful for Pozuelo to give it up. As humble as he comes across I don't think he'd be too happy with the idea, nor would I want our new star player to be so laissez-faire as to give it up so easily.

    Still have two weeks, give or take, for a signing before the window closes. Plenty of time

    Remember that season Seattle was terrible the first half, then made some signings mid season, fired their coach and made it to the final?

    I'm sincerely not worried. Especially this far into the season.

    Oh I'm not making comment about the quality of the side or how well we'll do in general, I'm just saying that this is a stupid amount of time to take to sign a player you've wanted since the off-season began

    Because of that I have no faith that there will be a new signing in the next two weeks

    Yea, they've made a it'll be two weeks comments multiple times since February.

    Don't talk shit. We are all knowledgeable enough that if they say we have targets and we've made bids but it takes time to get all players (club, agents, players) on the same page to do a deal. We'll get it. Saying a TAM player will be in within two weeks multiple times and nothing to show for it is bollocks.

    Im fine with riding it out till sumer and making reinforcements don't fucking bullshit us to save face or boost ticket sales.

    Yeah, I'm not into this "we want to get the right guy so we'll wait" thing if we nobody comes in the next couple of weeks.

    Just not having it. If they don't do something, they didn't do their jobs.

    They've been talking about this need for a wide player since September. Its been identified. And we have been told numerous times that this team has multiple players they are watching to meet every possible need.

    Now, maybe they had to change a few things because of the Seba gone / Poz in switch.

    And, maybe they didn't get their first choice.

    But, enough is enough. Take a chance, get messy & get in that wide player that will at least stretch teams out. If he doesn't work out, so be it.


    Waiting until the summer for the "right player" is after we have already played 19 games (and that's assuming a first few days signing for a window that opens 10 July) is not good enough. Sorry, but if we all know that SOMETHING is needed now - its been identified. Stop with the worrying - you all get paid the big bucks to make the big decisions. MAKE ONE
