Cyle Larin is leaving Besiktas. He is open to possible offers from Turkey but will reportedly prioritize the highest bidder and move ASAP. #CanMNT

If he can score the way he did in Turkey, yes. But issue I see is his best position was playing on the left side of a front 3. The target man would occupy defenders in the middle and Larin would crash the far post and score in buckets.
We don’t have the true target man as the foil and we know who is first choice on the left side.
Scoring is so not our priority. We’re scoring at something like three times our xG, and are among the league leaders in goals per game. We’re getting killed defensively.
NYCFC has given up 12 goals in 14 games… so only six in twelve games when you take away the six we scored against them.
We can score goals. Between Ayo, Jesus and Poz, that’s probably a solid 30 goals a season.
We need a DM and wingbacks.
And a new keeper but need to offload one first so maybe not this year... although Borjan would be fun.
larin is not worth a dp spot...production went way down and he misses a number of good chances
My hope is that next year we use the Poz DP spot on someone in the midfield. Miha Zajc should absolutely be a target.

anyone getting twitchy about lack of news surrounding new signings?
The European window is open and in the past we would've gotten hints from free agents who've already agreed terms. But MLS seems to have really clamped down on info leaks, likely as any offer can be rescinded until a transfer certificate is received.
Ton of high-profile free agents available, many out of our price range.
But as a RB solution, I wonder if we could swing a TAM for West Ham's Ryan Fredericks. He's rumored going back to the championship, but he's 29, playing at a high level for his whole career. And he's available on a free.

Criscito wished Insigne a happy birthday today with a picture of the two hugging. The closest I have to a rumor.
Yep... coming down with a bad case of the twitches... getting an uneasy feeling we are being 'Hoodwinked' again...
'two more weeks'... or 'all but done' by Manning now...

Plan A w/MD & DC seems to have blown up. Plan B? A little too quiet for me!
Not a lot of rumours given our status.

Wheeler dropping the "they have been looking at players all around the backline"
Regarding Michael Singh's reporting, with BB's obvious LAFC connect, Chiellini's arrival, someone there is likely getting pushed.
We may very well be considering / getting Doneil Henry; decent veteran presence.
But I hope it's Latif Blessing. Even though he may be injured, solid right side / mid strength; youngish and versatile.
Qualitatively well known to BB. Contract expires end of this season?
Given some of the c-level Italian internet reporting, as well as the lack of any further or ongoing Toronto based rumours involving them and against the Diego Laxalt story... I have resigned myself to the notion that Mattia Destro and Domenico Criscito are likely not coming to TFC.
