2022 Roster Discussion
- Thread starter Fantazma
- Start date
I wonder if we actually have a reasonable chance at keeping Taty until summer.
Great piece of business. The sporting side has been top notch the past few years. David Lee doing a great job (dumb fan signs notwithstanding).
So we have two open DP spots for this coming season. I wonder if we have anybody we’re specifically aiming for.
I think we all missed a piece in there: mitrita not coming back. That's huge, and I think in a very good way.

Exactly the move. Though I’m sure if we don’t win silverware or if he gets injured folks will go all revisionist on this. It may not work out at his age but it’s def the right move. And if we do win more silverware and the Stadium gets built, he gets that statue we used to think Villa should get.

I believe Maxi's wife is still pregnant. I'm curious how much of a role that played in keeping him here. Argentina is no third world country, but considering the circumstances I think I'd much rather have my child born and receive infant care here with our medical system rather than in Argentina during a Covid surge.
He talks about that in the interview, how he wants to have his third daughter here in New York.
To echo the sentiments of others, very glad to hear Mitrita isn't coming back. Good riddance to a pitiful footballer. The antithesis to what NYCFC represents.
He’s our 7th all time leading goal scorer.
I really don't agree with that. The guy wasn't as good as advertised, but he was still pretty good when he was here. He had 12 goals, 3 assists in 2019 and was playing well in 2020 before he decided he wanted to leave.
It sucks that he wanted to leave, by all accounts it was mostly because of COVID, but to call him a pitiful footballer is too much. 16 goals and 5 assists in 41 career appearances is a pretty good strike rate. It's a shame it didn't work out for him here.
He would be our best winger if showed up to camp in two weeks
Incorrect. He wanted to leave so he could be closer to his family and pregnant wife. What's wrong with that? He played well as the player he is but didn't match the system and qualities that Delia wanted our attackers to have. He was inherited by Delia, not signed when Delia was manager.
That's a great story. I'm sure Deila benching him until we were shopping him had nothing to do with it.
I don't think that's fair. He played a lot of games between the restart and him leaving. He wasn't performing that well so he was coming off the bench at times, but he got plenty of game time.

I mean if you look at the gamelog, you can pinpoint the exact moment Deila had enough with him and benched him at halftime. Obviously was someone who couldn't be bothered to play defense and that is just antithetical to how NYCFC wants to play especially under Deila. The fact that Ronny would have rather play Alex Ring out of position than a healthy Mitri tells you everything you need to know about this situation.I don't think that's fair.

Mitrita is our 3rd best DP ever.
Let’s chill with the slander here. He walks into this team right now if he wants to.
