2018 Roster Discussion

Silly video of JSB at the training ground from Barstool. Video is kinda lame and has short awkward interviews with Johnson, Villa and Viera, but holy shit at 3:45 they start talking about Lewis and I’m not sure if it’s the way the video was edited, but Viera looked very uneasy and didn’t have great things to say about Lewis except he’s a good locker room guy. Super uncomfortable, IMO.

When we start analyzing Barstool videos for insights into locker room dynamics:

(Vieira seemed pretty relaxed to me? And why even bring Lewis up if he hates him so much?)

God, after that back and forth about the qualities of Lewis, I wish she would have said "But you won't play me." Then cue the cold Vieira face and the Curb Your Enthusiasm music.

Actually, he's always been that height. He's just been photographed to look taller using forced perception.

By the way, should we read anything into the fact that the injury report for the last game named two guys as questionable but didn't bother to mention that James Sands was off on international duty?

James Sands

You know, James Sands, the first homegrown player for NYCFC who played like 20 minutes last year against Colorado subbing Pirlo off.

Also, what's Scally status? Studying for Regents?

He wasn't listed on the Injury Report because he was listed on the Away On International Duty Report (that wasn't disseminated).

Holy shit he played two days in a row?

And he scored!

I don't think a 8-0 victory vs. Kazakhstan really resulted in much work for Sands yesterday.

It looks like we have lots of room to spend in the summer. The only bad contract I'm seeing is Berget.

 

[Kjbert]

Wow.

Dempsey took a major oaycut.

Medina making $770k per year. Hopefully that means 2 new DPs in 2019 and not just one.

 

[The Toe]

The only thing that made Medina a DP was his transfer fee. Having 2 new DPs next year could be a whole lot of fun.

 

[Kjbert]

That's my point. A team with AMBITION buys two new DPs next year. That's huge.

 

[Kangaroo Jack]

lololol to Berget making 600K
