WHAT DO YOU KNOW?Blowing it up
After we just transferred his promising young academy backup for $2 million.I haven't even worn my shirt yet. But if he wants to go, we need to find a fair price and let it happen.
He’s the type of player who can fool you with a highlight film or video. He has moments of flash and skill, but is not the steady producer we needed/need.
Looks like GMS is gone.
Still thought he was a bit more useful than he was given credit for, although there is definitely more value out there for the $$ he was being paid. I'm not upset about this, but it is now another hole that needs to be filled.

I'd put Taty on winger list. I know he was playing as a #9 but he's NOT that. At all.NYCFC 2021 DEPTH CHART

Interesting, I was thinking that he's a better striker than winger but can play both. He does most of his damage from the middle of the pitch:I'd put Taty on winger list. I know he was playing as a #9 but he's NOT that. At all.
I've seen in several spots people mentioning Taty isn't a #9 and I don't get it in totality.Interesting, I was thinking that he's a better striker than winger but can play both. He does most of his damage from the middle of the pitch:
I'm fine with him as the backup striker until Heber is healthy, and to be in competition for the RW spot.
I'm not sold on Heber as our primary striker. I know last year was weird season with covid and all but I still fear he could prove a one season wonder as it were and would like to bring in a proven 9.Interesting, I was thinking that he's a better striker than winger but can play both.

I think Heber has good quality and probably our best finisher .. though that's not saying much considering we don't have great finishers on our squad to begin with. But, I think Heber needs a support. He's not the type of player who can take over by himself if need be. Sure, there may be flashes of brilliance, but for the most part, he needs wingers and a smart attacking mid/playmaker to work with. 2020 was a messed up year and when he did play, he was playing with Wing Ring and no Maxi pulling the strings, not to mention GMS and Medina, who he doesn't work the best with. I think he is best with Taty and Isi.I'm not sold on Heber as our primary striker.

He shouldn't need to. I think that player is going to need to be our #10; and while Maxi has quality, he's not the type to take over. Dictate our offense? Yes, but I think we need to get faster and younger at his position. Unfortunately, I don't think we line up his successor this window.Heber is a great finisher, but not a complete striker. In the right setup (which is what he had in his first year with Dome) he will score a ton of goals, but he’s not going to take the team on his back when nothing else is working.
or, to use a MLS analogy, he’s more Zardes than Josef.
Already a thread about this somewhere else, idk where though
