With the truncated schedule, the CCL tournament, the US open cup, do we think the MLS needs to increase the roster size of teams? Especially for us, but some teams now face International Call-ups which also take players out for some time; Or is this more of an NYCFC problem and their lack of a USL/U-23/filled out depth.

Teams can have up to 30 players, so I'd be shocked if that happened. Increasing the salary cap/TAM allowances so teams can have more depth is something likely to happen soon.
 
Whenever some news is announced, I honestly picture everybody leaving the office at 5 o’clock on a Friday afternoon and the social media team standing over their desks typing the announcement, hitting send and then running to the elevator.
The real vets make sure and turn off notifications before they even hit send.
 
I speak the language and read a few of the articles. The only thing that stood out was the supporters praising him yet pointing out he has legs made of glass.
So you mean to tell me you could have been browsing Croatian soccer Twitter and updating us on the transfer process translated tweet by tweet but didn't?
