There must be easier ways to give up the sauce than going to a country that bans it.
2017 General MLS Transfer Rumors
- Thread starter LionNYC
- Start date
I don't love Clattenberg. But he would easily be the best ref MLS has ever had. I very truly believe that shitty refereeing is making the league appear poorer than it is. The refs here now cannot keep up with the speed of play. It's like watching a Women's World Cup match every single match day. Just refs that don't understand the level of athleteticism and skill on display and continually see things that don't exist or fail to see obvious fouls.
The refereeing is truly fucking horrendous. It's amateur af.

They're apparently going to try to play 2 at the top more, there's a link to an article in the Dax thread
How exactly could they get Aron Johansson? As a MNT player his signing is governed by the Allocation list/order. RB is nowhere near the top of he list and I'm sure there are many other teams that'd eagerly sign Aron if given the opportunity. Unless there's a trade in the works for a higher pick, this rumor screams of misplaced innuendo by those pundits pushing it.
The more important question is why would he want to leave Germany for RB??? That's a head scratcher.
Trade some of that massive GAM from the Dax trade to the team with the first spot in the allocation order, which is currently Houston.
Plus if for some reason Johansson want to go to RB, the league will make it happen.
I agree, don't see it happening, but it's floating around out there nonetheless. Here's a recent article:

Maybe he wants to live in NYC and NYCFC isn't interested so it's RB as a default.
Honda to the Sounders being reported on twitterverse (sourcing an Italian report) FWIW. They already have 3 DPs, so presumably one of the 4 would be close enough to get them below the threshold.
I dont think he's a DP. I'm pretty sure their three last year were Dempsey, Lodeiro, and Valdez.
I believe they penciled him in as one for this season, confirmed on their website (though haven't researched beyond that):

Perhaps he fits into the category you mentioned above, as someone they can buy down below the threshold in order to bring in Honda.
Honda > Maxi
That being said, if we don't get Khedira (or Torres) in the summer, then it will have been a comparatively disappointing transfer season for us on the DP level.
