    Default Mojo Interview

    He knew what he was doing. But I think he figured he'd be losing the other Smith.

    He looked like a guy who figures he dodged a major bullet. He has a major investment in Johann Smith - that allocation had value.

    interesting
    may mean we still have someone coming into play the same position that was meant to be his replacement.
    could this mean... gasp... quality depth?

    Mo said he is looking for a "wing player, a Centre Back, and a couple of strikers".

    A wing player is needed to play opposite RR. What suprised me is he wants a couple of strikers. You figure that Barrett, Dichio, Ibbe will be there. I think one DP striker, and then go for 2 CBs.

    Dichio wont be playing full on the whole season, definitely need a 4th striker, Ibby not totally ready to play first team either.
    Need a leader/CB without a doubt

    Another "white" guy is what I understood too.
    Is that mean we will have two Whites;O’Brian White and who else?

    Dave Vandenbergh is out of contract at New Jersey.

    Yeah, he's 32 and slow, but he is an excellent crosser of the ball (which we desperately need), scored 7 goals and 5 assists last season and has a green card so counts as a domestic.

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

    I'm not so sure considering he says in the video that he talked to seattle earlier this week. i think he knew what was going to happen.

    Actually he's not slow. He's got decent wheels for a guy his age; he's one of the best wingers in the league and can even drop back in emergency and play fullback.

    He's a former (briefly, but only four years ago) Dutch international who excelled in the Eredivisie for most of his career. He'd be an excellent signing, if we could fit him under the cap. He was at KC and New York, so Mo must know him well.

    If they don't offer what DD feels is the correct contract DD wont be back.
