2017 Roster Discussion

Can't be worse than Mikey Lopez

For all Mikey's faults. He doesn't count vs the cap, nor takes up and intl roster spot. We could have 20 Mikey's on the team just for shits and giggles if they all have those qualities.

Assuming we finally dispose of Mix I think I'll have to update my signature rule to be that every thread turns into the stadium thread or a Mikey thread.
 
You're going to relieve Anderlecht of Badji? Must be one of the worst players I've ever seen on the Belgian fields.
I don't watch the Belgian league so you probably know more than me, but if the link is true, it could be a case of "buy-low, maybe sell high" of a out-of-form player". Maybe PV believes he'll be a better fit in his system.

Dunno, trying to shine a optimistic light on this.
 
Cool with the signing assuming it only requires a little TAM. But if we blow a huge chunk of it on this guy, will be quite disappointed

I wonder how we will reflect on this in a few years - some teams use all of their TAM on one guys. We're spreading it around.

A couple things on him:

He's 6'3", so has some decent size, 1.3m euro valuation on transfermarkt and apparently is under contract until June 2019:

FIFA 17 rating of 72:

If he is under contract until 2019, I would imagine that this would just be a loan.
Centerback? Yes, this is my answer for all midfielders who have decent size and can't make a forward pass.
 
maybe because i havent played fifa in years...but why is every transfer rumor or new player always has a fifa rating included? is it really that important?

For those of us who have never seen him (or never will) it provides a comparison.

Always thought MLS players were underrated and European players were overrated on FIFA anyway

i guess but is it really a good way of seeing a player? i mean you said MLS are underrated and euro overrated so it makes it iffy at best.
