    The $1B number is also just the drop in revenue, not profit. The league had savings on salaries, reduced staff costs, didn't have to staff stadiums on game days, etc. No doubt the league didn't perform as well as they would have wanted this season, but the $1B number is all about grabbing headlines.

    This is better.

    If Ben Olsen even gets an interview I would consider it a major insult to the fanbase.

    Random thought... Boca Juniors and LA Galaxy have yet to come to an agreement for Cristian Pavon. He is exactly the type of player we are said to be searching for.

    Fagundez done at NE. Mentioned this before but think he would be a good fit.

    ^ I would love that (Pavon). Seems like a long shot though.

    I would be happy with either Vieira or Blanc. The players will respect them and these guys are winners.

    But I was pissed when TFC kept Vanney after 2015, so what the heck do I know?

    Torn on this because I rate the player but I don't think this works for us unless he starts consistently and I'm not sure that he would. Personally I think he should have left the Revs like 6 years ago. Ceiling was seemingly high for him and I think his growth was stunted in that environment. Uruguay national side was taking a serious look at him and he missed the boat there. Would have been a great story.

    Also he wants to be making ~1M so it'd take considerable TAM to land him which goes back to point A - if you make this move he has to play a larger role.

    Any non-MLS transfer rumour involving TFC is likely fake news until a new manager is installed. This is an agent’s work.

    No doubt. First time I have seen them linked though and figured I'd put it out there.

    I really hope this is fake BS.
    He's the son of the great former Romanian player Hagi (the "Maradona of the Carpathians"), but he's a very very far cry from what his father was!

    Interestingly, he played at Genk (right after Poz left). He cost 10 million euros for Genk. So they literally took the money from Pozuelo and bought Hagi

    I’m also a Rangers fan and he’s been a disappointment so I hope TFC don’t proceed. Was never sure why rangers signed him after his loan. Okay player but way overvalued and not consistent.

    His dad was brilliant.

    He's in the midst of contract negotiations with Rangers so likely thats where this came from, but did score two goals in the Europa league yesterday so he must have something. Defer to the Ranger supporter on his consistency though.

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