I'm not completely against that, but the issue I currently see with that is I think having Shelton at RB, you would want him bombing down the wing instead of playing more reserved. And it appears that PV wants one of his (at this moment due to personnel, appears to be our LB) to bomb forward while one is more reserved and picks their moments.
I don't see that flipping with Sweat at LB, or even while Mata was healthy.
Perhaps if we are chasing a goal late, Khiry in for whoever is at RB can make sense, but I think I prefer the shift to the 3-3-4 with Okoli coming in up top for the RB instead.
I like this post much better if RB stands for Red Bull and not for Right back.
(by the way, the consensus #2 pick in that draft was Christian Roldan)
AND Roldan was a GA, giving us added cap relief. Kreis be damned!
Coincidentally, the consensus #2 expansion coach after that season was Kreis.
Update:
On the LB situation: the guy who's name was mentioned to me was Wilfried Kanon, the reason I'm letting you all know now is because today he signed a 5 year €400k deal to stay at ADO Den Haag so that is pretty much a no-go now. But it gives you an idea of the type of player allegedly on their radar.
Back to square one in terms of digging for leads. Nothing worth mentioning at the moment but I'll let you guys know if I hear anything else.
Maybe Man City can loan us Mendy and Walker until the Premier League season starts when they sign both for a combined 100M pounds...
This whole time I thought you were in finance, but there's no way that's possible if you still don't understand how Loans work in MLS.
Well I left out the financial structuring of the transfers from Man City that spreads their acquisition fee and subsequent wages amongst all CFG clubs and several other "football clubs" and holdings of CFG thus making our salary charge for them both only $60K. Basically we're putting the asset into different tranches.
The bubble bursts when MLS laughs at your creative accounting and slaps them with the full salary charge.
MLS only is transparent with their trades at this point. They're still good with creative accounting.
Down ~30% today. What do you know? Aside from transfer you, you should start to feed us some hot tech news.
NYCFCfan either just made the collective forum a lot richer or bankrupted the groupI kid.... probably only three people will make a trade on that....
LionNYC just lost half his trust, Midas Mulligan put in the opposite transaction that'd make him a bundle and then forgot to initiate the trade leaving him fuming, and
JGarrettLieb is now looking for new Realestate to purchase.

Anyone who can be consistently and perfectly wrong about a market is exactly as valuable as someone who can be consistently and perfectly right.
I take it you guys have never heard of WallStreetBets?
It's a subreddit that has the absolute worst trades and records when it comes to day trading, but if you do the opposite of what they do, or Inverse WSB, you'll make a killing.
They were high on the pineapple company so naturally it tanked.
I have in fact used that as an investing strategy. I'm just pissed off that I can't get it right nearly as often as they get it wrong.
