2018 Offseason Thread

We finished 12 points out behind 6th Place Toronto. Larin has to turn 4 losses to wins just to tie. That's a lot for 1 player. Then we would still lose the tiebreaker on total wins. You can't even assume 1 of those games converted from a loss to win is against TFC because we didn't lose to them. Maybe Larin plus a full year of reasonably healthy Lampard? Maybe.

Maybe. He starts in Nemec's place
 
Sacha Klejstan has 37 assists the last two years. That's the most in MLS history over a two season stretch. That's f'ing absurd.

The Vazquez I am referring to is Victor Vazquez of Toronto FC. He finished 8th in the MVP voting this year.

Pipa Higuain had 9 goals and 14 Assists this year. He destroyed us in the first playoff game and destroyed us in the last game of the season.

Albert Rusnak is one of 11 players on the pitch. He was phenomenal this year. But thank you for admitting you don't watch them and it's impossible to have an opinion about him.

Just because you don't watch the rest of MLS, doesn't mean that there aren't fantastic players out there. You should watch more of MLS before you tell me that you would take Maxi Moralez over Victor Vazquez.

If you like hustle so much, then why did we just release RJ Allen? He hustles too

because its about my team im watching....im not a league person.....only teams destroying us were toronto and atlanta....we choked against columbs in playoffs...it was not of higuain ....second game he did not destory us. its funny how you tell me about vazquez and not klejstan now ( who based on his own RB fans on reddit say he lacked this season, thats why they are ok with moving him to LA) ....but sure thats four.....still not take the rest based on my limited amount to watch

its not all about stats, and yes hustle is something.....having RJ as a third RB option is fine. hell the first playoff game whole team lacked hustle....i saw it in second game but it was too late....i do like maxi, can he improve? yes. is he the worst DP we have signed? no? you are making it sound like selling him will automatically bring someone better....as if CFG is in the business of paying for the "quality" of those 10-12 players you claim. we fine right now. it doenst hurt having him there.

So you admit that you don't watch other teams, yet you have an opinion than our guy is better than the guys on the teams you don't watch?

Maxi is an upgrade on his replacement, Tommy McNamara. My argument is that there are 10-12 better players at his position that do more to impact a game than Maxi does, while still contributing hustle and link-up play.

well the games they play against us....since i dont watch the rest of the league ( because i dont have the time and honestly for the most part not interested unless its "big" games or maybe the national tv games) thats what i base my opinion....i still wont take many over maxi since again .....the alternatives may not be the best when it comes to CFG getting someone else should maxi go. still think we are fine he is not pure trash

again i do expect or hope for a better season this year...also depending who the third DP is and options up front....he had one year to "adjust" to this league. so im not pessimistic about it.
 
So be it. Trust me on this one. There are better players at his position than Maxi Moralez. We should want and expect only the best DPs. Atlanta is eating our lunch.

atlanta is eating everyones lunch....this is their year ( amazing only after two years) they are the team to beat....even though toronto is the champ atlanta looks to be the one that may destory everyone.....i think that after this year they cant hold on to their players as other teams will start offering big bucks ( except that kid they just bought for 14M)
 
Didn't think he'd be a DP obviously, but good to know that's confirmed now.
