NYCFC Sign Rodney Wallace
- Thread starter NYCFC_Dan
- Start date
Someone please tell me he counts as a domestic. I don't care if you're lying. I just don't want to go crazy about international roster slots...

Very solid. And this should make Mata happy. Seeing some of our scrubs today, this is a positive development.
Costa Rican committee at left back then!
Sounds like he'll be a role player if the press release is anything to go by, but I'm glad we've got some more MLS experience in the squad.

Shelton didn't make the team and this guy will take over the left winger position alongside fellow Costa Rican Ronald Matarrita. Reyna/Vieira and company are building a great team and we're going for the cup!
He won't take an international spot. have no fear.
Edit: To elaborate, he has lived in the US since he was 9 and has a green card.
He had been solid in Brazil it seems from looking at his stats in their top division. Was great for Portland. Him and Villafana were what was missing from their squad this last year as to why they were not nearly as good. I am intrigued. I think he could be a solid rotational player for us.
For the first time, I feel like we have REAL depth.

We almost have too much attacking depth at this point.
Considering Jonathan Lewis will not be with NYCFC due to U20, this is a good depth signing.
And he doesn't count against the international roster slots. NYCFC made my day.

The Cosmos are gonna get bum rushed in the US Open Cup this year with all this depth.
He has a green card from what's being said. Can't see us signing him and not having him start or get solid playing time. This guy is a MLS veteran. Helped the timbers to their title in 2015. He actually paid $200,000 euros to his Brazilian team in order to be released. Wonder if we played a part in that.
Maybe he plays Lm in front of mata

No, Arouca in Portugal signed him. He only played twice on their 5th place finish.
I'm pretty sure I have no idea how we are going to pick a starting 11... I like it.
It's a good problem to have. Yet to see what kind of an impact Herrera/ring will have as well.
It's almost like we're buying players for a NYCFC2 side.
We have the depth to do well in the US Open Cup for the first time.
8 assists for Portland in 2015, mostly from the back. Wallace is a baller.

We have the depth to not need to play the first-11 5 games in a row. It does appear that the FO/coaches learned from the burnout of the starters - their legs never had pop in them after that heat-wave streak of games.
