2017 Preseason Thread

Considering he was a youth coach before signing with NYCFC, this is accurate...

 
So what's our starting lineup and trialist lineup for preseason (with new signs and injuries)...

Starting Lineup:

-------Harrison---Villa---Shelton-------
----------McNamara--Pirlo--------------
---------------------Mix?------------------
--Mataritta--Chanot--Brillant--Allen--
------------------Johnson-----------------

I would put Lopez in Mix position, but with Lopez injured, Mix seems like the closest to a 6 on this team. Unless you want to throw in Awuah or Camargo...

Tralist Lineup:

-------Lewis------Okoli------Harrison------
------------Wingate---Camargo-------------
-------------------Awuah---------------------
---Gomez---Chanot---Brillant---White----
------------------Johansen---------------------
 
Mix didn't go. He posted instagram story videos from a gym and also shopping an hour ago.
Unless they're not all supposed to report today.

Best case is a team in Norway pays a transfer fee, but I think the likely scenario at this point is we part by mutual consent. Both wins for us, given the current situation. A buyout would suck.

It's going to be more mysterious like that. Man City (or a another CFG company) buys out his contract and subsequent transfer fee and sells at a discount to a Norway team.

He posted a pic in mountain gear and captioned it 'Outfit for the Norweigan Mountain.'

Honestly had no idea they were doing preseason there. Thought it was going to be out west this year. I know last season I was going to go up there and upon contacting a rep they said practice viewership is very limited and they can't promise I'll be able to see anything. So more than likely not as its a crappy 3:30 hour drive.

Brandt also liked the tweet about Mix....
 
James Sands is with the team...also Connor Brandt as a trialist...

The other trialists joining the camp are former Columbus Crew defender Ben Sweat, ex-Seattle midfielder Michael Farfan, midfielder John Stertzer who used to play for Real Salt Lake and Haitian u20 international forward, Roberto Louima.

Mix and Saunders are not on the traveling squad.

international and NYCFC academy prospect James Sands will also join the travelling party for this fortnight-long training camp.
While Lewis has signed a contract with the club, his fellow draft picks Degraffenreidt, Wingate, Awuah and Brown will all compete for a contract over the course of preseason.

First time an academy player has been called up?
