2019 Roster Discussion

[Alex Da Silva]

I hope this means they have a replacement for him.

Yeah they will announce that right after they announce David Villa's

 

[dannd23]

Yes! I love having no strikers, who needs to score? you win by having more possession right?

Spain won a World Cup with a 4-6. Dome is Spanish. I’m just connecting the dots

Lol, y'all can hate this comment, but we're going to do so much worse this season. I feel totally abandoned by CFG.

As of now yes. I’m gonna wait and see who we sign to pass judgement but I’m expecting missing out on playoffs. Went from one of the most exciting offenses to shit

yeah this roster construction looking like some pretty avant garde shit

We've seen a lot of teams recently start terribly, sign a high-priced missing piece in the summer, and run roughshod. Wouldn't be surprised if something like that happened here. Our roster in March probably won't be our roster in August

I understand as of now we have no strikers, but you guys have to understand we have two more months to sign players, let’s not panic and get angry yet.

It’s possible to be angry but not panic. We have the deepest pockets in MLS. Why the hell are we not spending more and sooner. And can we have a damn transfer fee that is actually sizeable

Give it time, and then complain. Possible we might even have to wait till summer window for a splash signing

Nothing the club has done should inspire that confidence in you

Yea cause we’ve never had a big signing in the summer...

 

[FredMertz]

Terence Boyd?

 

[LionNYC]

Pirlo was only in response to Lampardgate. And CFG's thinking towards designated players for NYCFC is completely different than 2014/2015.

 

[The Toe]

Berget the fuck out

 

[dannd23]

Correct. We have not. Chanot was our best summer signing and he barely played that season

 

[dannd23]

Terence Boyd?

With what knees??

 

[sundance]

FYI, looks like Kyle’s Dome interview will be out tomorrow

Personally met Jo a couple of times. Both times with my son. Couldn’t ask for a nicer guy. Went way out of his way with my son, who is now 4.

Will miss him for that reason. He was a great guy.

 

[BxLio91]

They better have a real fucking solid replacement. Because I would have thought with Villa gone, he'd get a proper run playing as a 9. I thought with his salary that's what the plan was. That wasn't the case.

Wasn’t David Villa on that squad?
