2019 Roster Discussion

Steaua hero Duckadam lost a painful bet. He said he would cut his ear if Mitrita went to NY City FC for 7m euros. Now he showed up like this in the TV studio after the transfer was sealed. Ouch. pic.twitter.com/Yvw76UcSQT

I like this idea for the Kjbert Fantazma bet.

lmfao .....but looking at this guys ear. looks like some glitch in a video game where the face is deformed or not loading correctly

From now on I will acknowledge that MLS is a plastic league.

Not because of single entity.
Not because there is no pro-rel.
But because our club executives aren't willing to go full Van Gogh.

It’s a band-aid

And follow up tweets clarify, his ear’s fine. I guess the picture is a joke

Dome said he believes they can cobble together Villa’s on the field impact with multiple players. I read that to mean new multiple players.

If it’s this guy and players already on the roster...yikes

How is our roster suddenly "yikes"? I know it seems hard to remember but I'm pretty sure we were good last year.

NYCFC has gone from David Villa to the “Romanian Messi” as its highest paid player.

I think Maxi is still #1. Unless you add in acquisition cost.

I’m adding in acquisition cost. NYCFC is paying the highest transfer fee they ever have paid - more than ATL paid for Almiron. Let that sink in.

Won't even be mad at him if he decides to fuck off somewhere else. We're hindering his development.

People always like to trumpet new MNT players who score their first few games in a row, but doubt many keep track of assists. Lewis has two caps and two assists, both game winning.

And under two different coaches he was a game changer when given the chance. NYCFC has done him wrong considering he was an up and coming YNT player and he’s barely gotten any minute in two seasons. Hell, considering who’s on this team, for me he’s one of the starting wingers and the other two positions are up for grabs, but I’m sure Dome will stick it to him saying his absence with the MNT has hindered his gelling with the team and therefore hasn’t earned playing time. Mark it.

Welcome, America, to the show. J-Lew hot takes gonna be pretty elevated on the next few months

(But, yeah, if we won’t start him he absolutely should go somewhere else)

Three different coaches

 

[413Blue]

"There is a path for" any fucking player to "be a full regular for the USMNT".
Such a dumb tweet.

 

[Ulrich]

Three different coaches

Was referring to Vieira and Dome as club coaches - wasn’t including Berhalter because he’s playing him and is talking about Lewis having a real role with MNT, albeit hinging on playing time at club level with a coach that couldn’t see his value last year.
