We deserve butter.
Ives hinted that something else was in the works. Anyone heard additional rumours?
So Nana's contract is up this fall? I wonder what he'll sign for if he signs again with San Jose... if he doesn't, he would go through that draft thingy for out of contract players.

Not.
That.
Bad.
Just saying. He hit some good free kicks this year.
Peterson is a decent guy but sort of a jack of all trades, master of none. It's not his fault Mo gave him that salary.
Thread is moving to fast - is this the current state?
Peterson, Nana out - confirmed
Gordon out - rumor
Dunfield in - confirmed
Johnson in - rumor
International spot aquired - rumor
This isnt really the thread to discuss this but do you have any proof he was mistreated? from what we know he was injured.
Theres speculation he didnt want to resign with TFC as a result why bother to let him play if hes not going to stick around?
Mostly all we have is speculation.
Goals and assists are pretty difficult metrics to measure a winger.
I give him a bit more credit than others on this board. I hated Peterson last season but as this season carried on, I watched him more closely and he's a quality MLS role player. A bit overpaid, yes, but still useful on any MLS roster. IMO, Peterson is a bigger loss than Glass Joe Alan Gordon and benchwarming Nana.
Now confirmed as per TFC's site
Peterson, Nana out - confirmed
Gordon out - confirmed
Dunfield in - confirmed
Johnson in - confirmed
International spot acquired - confirmed
We have no ideal what this means due to allocation money floating around, so leaving that out, we have
Moved 3 players out
Brought two in
got another international slot
So we've freed up two more roster slots to bring players in.
