Interesting bit in that Beezer story about Morrow being injured.
Starting LB?
Morrow officially back.

Here's a piece from the Athletic from a few months ago. Even if that's the way you're supposed to do it, teams and agents don't really follow those rules. https://theathletic.com/2087716/2020...es-agent-fees/
1 year contract only for Morrow - I'm thinking he got an offer for 2022 from the club for some role somewhere.
"There are some people who might have better technique than me, and some may be fitter than me, but the main thing is tactics. With most players, tactics are missing. You can divide tactics into insight, trust, and daring." - Johan Cruyff

I can see Morrow moving into the front office after his playing career. Hopefully that does happen here.
Whom Curtis openly screwed. He had an appearance renewal clause and they played him one less game than it took to kick in. They also told him he was staying, so he started making arrangements for his spouse to live and work in Canada.
It's just bad business. You run into these cats in media all the time, businessmen who are successful in one field or area and then move into a larger role, and think they still have such authority that their prospective partners will laugh off using underhanded tactics. It never goes well.
Zavs resigned - 1 year + option. Curtis openly says "This is a big year for him". i.e. Put up or you are gone time.
As of right now our CB depth chart is:
Mavinga
Gonzalez
Zavaleta
Dunn/Romeo
Not optimal.
I don't really see the issue with coming to terms with Pozuelo and then going to Genk and saying "hey we're activating the release clause." If we told Genk we were activating the release clause before coming to terms with Poz, then Poz and his agent could have squeezed us or held out for more money and we'd be screaming that we should have had a clear agreement with Poz before telling Genk we'd like acquire him.
So with Justin and Zavs re-signing the overall roster is at 30 right now, with one spot open due to Rocco being away on loan. Also only 6 of 8 international spots are filled right now, so their is flexibility there too. If needed be a couple more loans could be in the cards with Gallardo mentioned as a possibility. Also depending on what the CPL does this year I could see us placing a player or two there.
Remember The Man, The Legend, The Goal 5-12-07 and All That #9 Left On The Pitch, Thanks For The Memories !!!
Zavs is a #5 / #4 CB who had 1 good year at the #3 slot & got paid that wage only to fall down afterwards - remember he was a starter for most of 2017 in the 3-5-2.
At a #5 wage level, he's fine and saying this is an important year with a 1 year contract indicates he has 1 more year to show he can maybe get better before they bring in somebody else.
He's serviceable at that spot and Curtis is saying he needs to prove this year that he can stay there.
People on Twitter referring to whatever is wrong with Ayo as a 'heath issue' instead of an injury has me concerned for him.
Not sure if we have the roster spot open for Romeo. From what I understand from MLS roster rules (which are so confusing I could be wrong). I think to open the 31st roster spot, the player has to be on loan for the rest of the season. Romeo is due back July 1st. So either someone else needs to be loaned (a young guy to CPL? like Okello/Jahkeele/Shaffleburg/Dorsey/Gallardo) or Romeo gets extended.
EDIT:added potential loanees

Shaff could be a guy who gets loaned out. Hopefully in an attempt to learn how to play LB.
