Any idea to what team and for whom? Even a position would be fine (I assume it is a fullback b/c that's what we need most from where I sit).According to my sources Tmac is 100% being traded

They showed an even better shot looking down the line later in the broadcast that clearly showed half his foot over the line. I'm interested to see if it comes up in the MLS weekly ref review thing that Simon Borg guy does.
Hard to say, but in my unwavering & highly biased opinion, his toes are over the line. I'd red card the guy for even attempting the subterfuge.
Seriously though, I've seen refs all too often miss the trailing foot raised off the ground, so to miss his toes is easier to accept. Just sucks that it led to a ridiculous laser of a shot/goal. Kinda feel like that event lit a fire under the team's ass, or at least got PV to give a passionate French pep talk in the locker room of viva Le France, errr, viva Le NYCFC

His foot was way over the line, the only question is whether his heel caught the line, supposedly if any part of the foot is on the line it is legal. Seems strange to me as I learned that your foot needs to be behind the line, not that the entire foot could be over and you touch the line with your heel.
But yeah, it deserves a review.
I'm all for 100% for any play. Can't stand the encroachment on free kicks. Yellow for you, and yellow for you, and yellow for you!Interesting.
I am hardly a guy who thinks it makes sense to be a stickler for precision on throw ins. But, when you are attempting a long throw into the box, any little deviation from the rules can lead to an important advantage. Players need to be 100% by the book on those plays.
Foot can be on the line. It cannot be over the line. You be the judge.
I'm confused. You say his foot is allowed to be on the line. Later you say half his foot is over as if that's a problem but to be on the line implies half over.They showed an even better shot looking down the line later in the broadcast that clearly showed half his foot over the line.

i honestly don't know who will be getting in return, that's all i know, i do hear rumors about that SKC full-backAny idea to what team and for whom? Even a position would be fine (I assume it is a fullback b/c that's what we need most from where I sit).

By on the line do you mean that the front of his toes can touch but not go over?
Also, bad by the ATL CBs. Both went for the ball, and yet both lost to Villa, and then were out of position and allowed Maxi to get behind.Maxi's goal was a kind of crazy when you think about SJ going LONG LONG and Villa heading it to Rod, and the touch to Maxi, yadda yadda. That's really one of the first headers I've seen Villa make that fall up field.
Why do we think Herrera might leave us sooner? I thought it was discussed elsewhere that it will be a while before he can join MCFC due to the rules?I hope McNamara is traded for GAM or TAM. We don't know what we need yet. I'm not convinced that we need a RB right now that's already in MLS. I think we need to answer a few questions first:
1) How long is Herrera here?
2) Does Pirlo leave this summer?
3) Is Jonathan Lewis going to help us this season or not?
4) Is Matarrita gone this summer or this winter?
I think the club wants more roster and cap flexibility. If Herrera is gone this summer, then maybe you go out and buy a guy like Tony Tchani. Or you use GAM/TAM to bring in the South African kid. If Jonathan Lewis isn't going to be part of the plans this season, maybe we can absorb a contract on a half year loan. If Pirlo is gone, we do miss depth and a creative player in the midfield.

We were worried they were going to take Poku to MCFC, why wouldn't they pull back their own loaneeHe had two good games so everything thinks he's gone now. It's not like he would be leaving to start for MCFC. I don't know why they would pull him from us mid-season just to send him somewhere else.
Well he can't play in the EPL unless he starts enough for the Venezuelan National Team, right? I don't remember exactly what it was, but he's not close to fulfilling that requirement, so he couldn't play for MCFC. Whereas with the speculation around Poku, as ridiculous as it was, he actually would have been able to play over there.We were worried they were going to take Poku to MCFC, why wouldn't they pull back their own loanee
He just doesn't care this year.
Was wondering what your take on our play without Pilro would be. Not surprised you are more concerned about what I type, lol.what a weird thing to say
